"QUER BACH"

a cappella by Bobby McFerrin, Shakespeare and J. S. Bach

"One of the world's best contemporary vocal bands". With "Quer Bach", the six vocal artists of SLIXS present an extraordinary world-class concert program that combines arrangements of Bach's instrumental music (e.g. Goldberg Variations, Violin Concerto in A minor, Organ Prelude and Fugue in C minor) with their own settings of poems. Shakespeare sonnets meet jazz and groove elements, Bach meets funky beats. The listener is presented with an impressive and captivating variety of sounds. The singers use their voices as fully-fledged instruments with virtuosity and creativity - a listening pleasure in a class of its own!

SLIXS - THE 6 VOCAL ACROBATS

SLIXS turn the listening habits of the a cappella genre upside down. With their powerful and daring mix of pop and jazz, classical and world music, the 6 vocal artists inspire audiences at concerts across Europe and Asia. They explore what the human voice is capable of and transport you to a paradise of timbres, onomatopoeia and vocal percussion. You will be amazed at their ingenuity and delighted by their subtle sense of groove.

The 6 vocal acrobats elicit a band sound from their throats and mouths that fascinates even icons of the a cappella scene.

Ward Swingle, the creator of the legendary Swingle Singers, was entranced during his lifetime: "Your style is unique." Gabriel Crouch from the King's Singers called SLIXS "better than any group (he's) ever heard!" And before Bobby McFerrin took them on a joint tour of Europe, he praised: "I've never heard these tunes so funky".

Celebrated worldwide: through Europe with Bobby McFerrin

This is one of the reasons why the sextet is regarded as one of the world's best contemporary vocal bands. Their artistic daring and innovative spirit have now been rewarded five times with the CARA (Contemporary A Cappella Recording Award) - the world's highest award for vocal art: Best Jazz Song of the Year 2008, Best Folk/World Song of the Year 2013, Best Classical Song of the Year 2019 and 2023 and Best Classical Album of the Year 2023. In 2006, they were already two-time audience winners at the international a cappella competition "Vokal Total" in Graz (A) and have been touring with the same line-up ever since.
