With our small autumn concert series, we would like to once again present the natural and emotional intelligence of music that is played and mostly composed by ourselves. Our journey takes us through different musical worlds, which this time are particularly inviting to explore. This time, we have the honour of welcoming a few more guests from abroad, with musicians from three continents joining our regional talents. For the first time, there will also be an interdisciplinary dance concert, which – perhaps representative of all the music presented – bears the fitting title Earth Song: Hear the song of the earth and sing along! To make the autumnal world a little brighter and friendlier. We look forward to having you with us on our journey!

On Thursday, November 27, 2025, the final concert of the KulturKontakt Eppan concert season will take place at the Ansitz Reinsperg in Eppan. The guest performer will be the internationally renowned bandoneonist Mario S. Pietrodarchi, who will present a program combining film, dance, and South American passion together with a string quintet. The program will feature works by Ennio Morricone, Nino Rota, Roberto Di Marino, and Astor Piazzolla—composers whose music is characterized by emotional expressiveness and a close connection to film and movement. The program ranges from Morricone's well-known themes from Cinema Paradiso, Mission, and C'era una volta il West to Rota's homage to Federico Fellini, Di Marino's Suite mediterranea, and Piazzolla's tango classics Oblivion, Adiós Nonino, and Libertango. Mario S. Pietrodarchi graduated with honors from the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia in Rome in 2007 and has been performing worldwide ever since. He has worked with Andrea Bocelli, Angela Gheorghiu, and Michele Placido, among others, and is considered one of the outstanding bandoneonists of his generation. The 2026 concert season will also be presented during the evening. After the concert, all guests are invited to a reception. In addition, the Heinrich von Mörl Scholarship will be awarded. KulturKontakt Eppan would like to thank all members, sponsors, and loyal concertgoers for their support and loyalty throughout the 2025 season.

Fresh, authentic and open to anything that sounds different: Popcorner, a seven-piece ensemble from the Fassa Valley, is bringing new energy to the Ladin music scene. With an exciting mix of their own Ladin songs and international covers, they inspire with their youthful sound, strong voices and audible enthusiasm. Their first album, ‘Utar piata’, was recently released. Founded in 2023, Popcorner deliberately goes beyond mere cover versions: workshops on songwriting and music production have given rise to a new generation of Ladin pop music – modern, emotional and stylistically open. The name ‘Popcorner’ has a double meaning: ‘pop’ means ‘child’ in Ladin – but at the same time it is reminiscent of the pop music genre that forms the core of their style, and “corner” means ‘vagabond’ – a tongue-in-cheek allusion to their musical freedom.

Echoes of Marabi brings South Africa and Switzerland together in an impressive album that blends jazz, blues, and memories. At the center are Yonela Mnana, one of South Africa's most impressive voices and pianists, and Benedikt Reising, a Swiss saxophonist with a flair for sonorous depth. They are accompanied by the Soultee Sisters from Katlehong—once opera singers, here as a three-part vocal ensemble that lends depth and atmosphere to the compositions. The album addresses South Africa's present, celebrating history and resilience. The title refers to Marabi, a form of jazz from Johannesburg in the 1930s – influenced by ragtime, jazz, and African roots. An echo from the past – with the sound of today.

They are the luminaries of a cappella dialect music, and for some, even the most beautiful boy band in the world. More than 12 years have passed since the vocal ensemble first moved out of their rehearsal room in Vienna's Hermanngasse to make the world a happier place with their enchanting dialect singing. Hundreds of concerts testify to their thirst for adventure and a healthy dose of pioneering spirit. They have already been nominated twice for the Amadeus Austrian Music Award. With a proudly displayed shyness, they sing their not-so-harmless lyrics, sparing no one. They have released five albums full of songs, many of which – such as Knedl, Wegana, Elektroradl and Alles Tango – have already achieved cult status. In autumn 2024, the new album SEHR SOGAR marked another milestone in the band's history. The new record is as colourful, cheeky, loving and cool as the band itself, sometimes hip hop, sometimes schlager or even big pop, sometimes flashy, then again quite modest, incredibly diverse and yet seamless.
