Bernadette Zeilinger holds degrees in education and music (recorder) from Vienna University and in improvisation from Basel, where she studied with Alfred Zimmerlin and Fred Frith. In 2009 she won an award from the Austrian International Society of Contemporary Music (IGNM) in recognition of a radio feature about contemporary music.

Her groups are constantly evolving, and she also performs in various ad hoc groups when opportunities present themselves. She has developed her own musical language but is very flexible in her approach and also improvises at readings, art exhibitions, films, audio and talking books. She values collaboration with performers who work in other genres and forms and has worked with many dancers, actors, story-tellers and painters.

Argentinean guitar virtuoso Diego Muné performs with both passion and complexity. He grew up with listening and playing contemporary, classical and improvised music, blues, Argentinean folklore, rock, jazz and other styles. Since very young, Muné was searching for all the resonances of the guitar and he has developed a wide spectrum of sound. There are warm, intense and expressive qualities to his music. Moving and full of energy, he creates flowing phrases, moving melodies and pulsating rhythm in fast changes, surprising with his inspiring innovations. Muné plays solo and in several formations. He has performed with Clementine Gasser, Maggie Nicols, Otto Lechner, Paul Rogers, Helmut Neugebauer, Franz Hautzinger, Peter Herbert, Ferdinand Schmatz, Michael Fischer and the Vienna Improvisers Orchestra. He’s performed on hundreds of albums, recorded music for several films and participated in various multidisciplinary projects.
