  • Bio

    15 Strings .. was established in 2007 by 4 excellent professional musicians in Frankfurt/Germany to create acoustic swing, latin and various links to world music. .. The exceptional configuration of the band (using violin, cello, guitar, percussions) produces a new and inspiring sound – quoting a concertgoer: “It’s chamber music with a danceable kick!”. .. The cello acts as a the band’s bass instrument as well as a melodic driver. For the majority of the people the violin is a classical instrument but at 15 Strings it demonstrates it’s capabilities in popular music far beyond sob stuff stereotypes. The guitar plays its role as a rhythm instrument as well as melodic narrator. And finally the cajon as the core percussion component of the band points out that it is by far more than just a pulse generator for Flamenco Music. .. 15 Strings already played various gigs in Germany. Next Year the group is looking forward to perform in North America. In Frankfurt the 15 Strings are part of a concert series at the “Neuer Volkswirt” (Kleine Hochstr. 9, Frankfurt) with performances once a month (every third Sunday). .. Crossing the borders of latin, tango, jazz and oriental music, 15 Strings are: .. Markus Fleischer - Guitar .. Michael Gambacurta - Percussion .. Matthias Lichtenthaler - Violin / Composing .. Christopher Herrmann - Violoncello / Composing .... ...MEET THE WORLD WITH 15 STRINGS !!! .. ................Try the ..BEST.. ..MySpace Editor.. and ..MySpace Backgrounds.. at ..MySpace....
