Claudia Schwab
Never shy of crossing borders between genres, traditions and conventions, Claudia's show presents an introspective body of folk-inspired songs with experimental elements. Amalgamating aspects of the worlds of Irish, Austrian and Indian Classical music traditions, her original compositions are interwoven with sound samples. We hear of unfinished love stories, the yearning to be left alone, diverse “what if” scenarios of re-crafting our lifestyles, or reflections on the startling lack of being present to our own lives. "a sonic triumph" (FATEA) "absolutely gorgeous and extraordinarily inventive" (FolkFriday Radio) “an open invitation to listeners to allow their minds to wander” (At The Barrier) "evokes both the open spaces of the High Alps and the rushy glens of the Emerald Isle” (John Barlass)
