Musical stories with and without words—a unique evening with Philipp Furrer (Weissenborn guitar) and Stefan Heimoz (singer-songwriter).
Philipp Furrer – Weissenborn guitar
His music is an invitation to anyone who wants to discover something new and embark on an evening-long journey into the vastness and beauty of the unusual Weissenborn guitar, an acoustic slide guitar played while seated. A few years ago, Philipp Furrer set out to break new ground with the Weissenborn guitar—far removed from the usual blues and Hawaiian tunes. The result is a collection of instrumental pieces that create a unique atmosphere, taking listeners on a journey and inviting them to dream: music that tells stories without words and reveals its deepest power precisely in its silence.
Stefan Heimoz – Singer-songwriter
Stefan Heimoz, a singer-songwriter from the Bernese Oberland, entertains with his songs in the local dialect, following in the tradition of the Bernese troubadours. The 58-year-old chansonnier says of his art that he sings about the obvious and the hidden, the main and the secondary. His everyday stories set to music are sometimes offbeat, sometimes funny, sometimes thought-provoking, or ambiguous. For 27 years, he has been bringing his very own style to the stage with his voice, guitar playing, and lyrics. In 2025, his seventh album, *Nume es Lied* (on the Narrenschiff label), was released, leading to appearances on the SRF program *Swissmade* and various regional radio stations, among others.
