   About Guitavio
German version:

Guitavio – das klingt nach Süden, Sonne und Oliven – ist es aber nicht. Entstanden ist die Gruppe 1987 im hohen Norden – in Westerland bzw. Kiel. Der Name bezieht sich auf die Instrumente, die die Gründungsmitglieder spielen, nämlich G(u)itarre und Violine. Guitavio machte erstmals von sich reden, als die Gruppe 1987 den 1. Platz bei einem Sylter Musikwettbewerb gewann. Seither hat es in der Formation viele Veränderungen gegeben. GUITAVIO 2008 – das sind: Coretta v. Behr (Gesang), Erk Böteführ (Gitarren, Gesang), Ronald Kowalewski (Bass, Gesang) und Markus Zell (Schlagzeug, Percussion). Gelegentlich unterstützt wird Guitavio von Marion Heise (Akkordeon, Viola, Gesang) und Diedrich v. Behr (Cajon). Sieben CDs hat Guitavio mittlerweile veröffentlicht, Konzerte im In- und Ausland gegeben, Auszeichnungen erhalten und Radio- und Fernsehauftritte gemacht. Bereits seit einigen Jahren arbeitet Guitavio mit dem Texter Paul Thomas zusammen. Der gebürtige Engländer lebt seit Mitte der 90 Jahre in Israel. Guitavio hat in den letzten Jahren exklusiv eine Vielzahl seiner Songlyrics vertont und bereits auf CD veröffentlicht. Diese Lieder werden dargebracht in folkigen, poppigen, jazzigen oder auch rockigen Arrangements auf meist akustischen Instrumenten: Das Resultat dieser Zusammenarbeit ist ein qualitativ hochwertiges Bühnenprogramm mit einer Musik, die eigenwillig ist, so temperament- wie gefühlvoll und immer spannend. Zum besonderen Interesse der Gruppe gehört die stilübergreifende Zusammenarbeit mit anderen Musikern und Bands. 2002 gab Guitavio in Kiel ein gemeinsames Konzert mit Deutschlands bekanntestem Bluesmusiker, Abi Wallenstein, unter dem Motto „Folk meets Blues“. 2004 gingen die Musiker mit der dänischen Folk-Band Drownes & Bellows auf Tour. Immer wieder kam es bei CD-Aufnahmen und auch bei Konzerten zu Treffen mit klassischen Musikern. Im November 2004 durfte Guitavio das einzige Deutschlandkonzert der britischen Folk-Rock Legende Fairport Convention eröffnen. Die Brunsbütteler Zeitung berichtet über eine „exzellent zubereitete Stil-Melange“ und die Norddeutsche Rundschau verlieh den GUITAVIO-Konzerten ein „Gütesiegel“. Mit diesem Urteil steht die Rundschau nicht allein da. Die Kieler Nachrichten schrieben: „Unsichtbare Fäden der Verständigung und des musikalischen Einverständnisses spannten sich unter den Musikern und zogen das Publikum aus der Realität in eine herrliche Traumwelt. Schöner hätte das erste Konzert des Jahres kaum sein können.“ Wiederum die Kieler Nachrichten weisen Guitavio als ein „hervorragend eingespieltes Folk-Ensemble“ aus, das, so der Bad Bramstedter Anzeiger, „das Publikum zu Beifallsstürmen hinriss.“ Der Bremer Weserkurier charakterisierte die Musik von Guitavio als „überzeugend eigenwilliges Menü“. English version:

Guitavio – that sounds like the South, Sun, and Olives, but it ain’t. In 1987, the Band was founded in northern Germany, that is Westerland respectively Kiel. The name derives from the instruments played by the founding members: Guitar and Violin. GUITAVIO was first raved about when the Band was awarded the first prize at a musical Competition on the island of Sylt, 1987. Since then, the Band has gone through a lot of changes. Today GUITAVIO are: Coretta von Behr (Vocals), Erk Boetefuer (Guitars, Vocals), Ronald Kowalewski (Bass, Vocals), and Markus Zell (Drums, Percussion). From time to time GUITAVIO gets musical support by Marion Heise (Accordion, Viola, Vocals) and Diedrich von Behr (Percussion). Meanwhile the Band has delivered seven CDs. They are touring Germany and foreign countries, are performing at Radio- and TV-Gigs, and gained various Awards. For several years now, GUITAVIO is working together with song lyricist Paul Thomas. Born in England, he lives in Israel since the mid-90’s. During the past years GUITAVIO exclusively set to music a variety of his songlyrics and published them on CD already. These songs are presented as Folk-Pop-Jazz-Rock-Arrangements, played on mostly acoustic instruments: The result of this cooperation is a high class stage performance of a specific, vivacious as well as passionate and always thrilling music. GUITAVIO’s special interest lies in the style-overlapping cooperation with other musicians and Bands. In 2002, Guitavio gave a concert with Germany’s best known Blues-musician ABI WALLENSTEIN, the motto being “Folk meets Blues”. In 2004 the Band went on Tour with the Danish Folk Band DROWNES & BELLOWS. Also, GUITAVIO was joined by classical musicians more than once when recording CDs and giving concerts. In November 2004 GUTAVIO had he pleasure to open the only Concert in Germany by the British Folk-Rock-Band FAIRPORT CONVENTION. The Media do tell: The “Brunsbuetteler Zeitung” wrote about an “excellent prepared Mixture of Style”, and the “Norddeutsche Rundschau” awarded GUITAVIO’s Concerts “prime quality”. This is not only the opinion of the “Rundschau”. The “Kieler Nachrichten” wrote: “Secret strings of dialogue and musical agreements had been tightened between the musicians and were pulling the audience from reality into a wonderful world of dreams. The first Concert of the year could hardly have been better.” And later the “Kieler Nachrichten” focused on GUITAVIO as an “outstanding Folk Ensemble”, that, as the “Bad Bramstedter Anzeiger” put it, “was moving the audience to bursts of applause.” The “Weserkurier” of Bremen characterized GUITAVIO’s music as a “convincingly wilful mixture”.

In Search Of A Rose - Kind Of Green

The Irish outlaw Reilly Ramones is not rambling along rainy green Irish valleys. This time he troubles the spotless under the hot Mexican sun and drowns Mariachi trumpets in Guinness.
Come and listen to the fine crossover of traditional irish tunes, Rock'n Roll and Hip Hop on the new album "Kind Of Green".
