About

Trombone Attraction is a new and dynamic trombone quartet, consisting of the four young musicians Stefan Obmann, Christian Poitinger, Martin Riener and Raphael Stieger.

The two Upper Austrians Martin Riener and Christian Poitinger have known each other for quite some time, they even attended the same school. The two Carinthians Raphael Stieger and Stefan Obmann have known each other since childhood, too, because they started playing the trombone at the same music school being taught by the same teacher.

Christian soon realized that he liked deep tones and decided to specialise in the bass trombone. Raphael finished his music teacher studies in Klagenfurt (Carinthia) and is now officially allowed to teach the trombone. Stefan and Martin got to know each other during an orchestra production in Salzburg, became friends and decided to found an ensemble.

In 2006 Raphael, Stefan and Martin started their studies in Vienna where Dietmar Küblböck (principal trombone Vienna Philharmonics) became their teacher. Christian's teacher in Vienna is Johann Ströcker (bass trombone Vienna Philharmonics). During the first rehearsals they recognized that they harmonised well with each other.

In 2008 they participated in their first competition which was the renowned “International Competition for Brass” in Passau (Germany) and won it!

They decided to go on playing music together as the “Trombone Attraction trombone quartet”, winning competitions and looking forward to a great future...

Musicians about Trombone Attraction

This group has a tremendous homogenity of sound and musical intention. A breath of musical fresh air. One can hear the joy in what they do and it is clear that this kind of musical togetherness comes only with much work built on instinct.

Ian Bousfield
Wiener Philharmoniker

Even the first time I listened to their new CD, I could sense their complete trust in each other and the fun they have when playing together, though, of course, they take their music seriously. I am sure "Trombone Attraction" will continue to delight me and, hopefully many other listeners, too.

Dietmar Küblböck
Wiener Philharmoniker

They are excellent musicians, are happy to risk and cultivate their delight in playing at the highest level. I've not often been able to experience such moments of 'blown heartiness' so far. This ensemble must be heard all over the world. All the credits to them!

Leonhard Paul
Mnozil Brass

A truly refreshing way of playing music and, what is more, executed with breathtaking ease. An ensemble we will surely be hearing about a lot more in the future...

Walter Voglmayr
Wiener Symphoniker, Pro Brass

These four trombonists represent a new, young generation of musicians for whom music has next to no boundaries. The stage is their life; it is where the four young musicians feel at home.
