Ensemble Valéik – Celtiberians

Valéik (Valais in Valais dialect) is first and foremost a string quintet, joined in the course of their concerts by other artists: musicians, actors and visual artists. The ensemble's primary aim is to give so-called classical music back its popular meaning, by taking it out of the usual concert halls.

With CELTIBERIANS, the ensemble continues its exploration of global music through a foray into two musical cultures: flamenco and Celtic music. With compositions and arrangements by Lisa Biard, the melodies wander and the harmonies blend into a new fusion.
