Alena Mae—Between Modern Indie-Pop and Emotional Storytelling (30 min.)
Thun-based musician Alena Mae uses her music to give a voice to the quiet and the hidden. With her warm voice, which sounds like a shared secret, she transforms silence into songs and vulnerability into strength. As a psychiatric nurse, she supports young people. As an artist, she gives voice to what often remains unspoken. Musically, Alena Mae moves between modern indie pop and emotional storytelling.
Meret Siebenhaar – Treibgut (45 min.)
Lucerne-based musician Meret Siebenhaar creates music that is as intimate as it is experimental. Using a prepared grand piano, synthesizer, and her voice, she spans a range from free improvisation to minimalism to songs in the spirit of The Necks, Grouper, or Talk Talk. The result is soundscapes that range from radical openness to subtle beauty, demonstrating that fragility and strength are two sides of the same coin.
