STEPHANIE SZANTO MEZZO-SOPRANO

SIMON BUCHER PIANO

For centuries, classical music has been regarded as untouchable. Stephanie Szanto and Simon Bucher are masters of their craft — yet by night, they find themselves dancing beneath the disco ball to the Eurodance hits of their youth.

In THE HIGH HORSE, high culture meets pop with wit, virtuosity, and a playful wink. The duo brings new brilliance to seemingly trivial earworms while affectionately poking fun at the classical tradition — a vibrant blend of goosebumps, humour, and boundless freedom.

ABOUT THE LIEDERGARTEN: Valais sunshine, a cool breeze, a camping chair, and the most beautiful cantilenas! Born as a summer 2020 Covid project, the LIEDERGARTEN is a constant fixture in the Valais cultural calendar: music from Baroque to Art Song and Pop echoes in the unique ambiance of the Stockalpergarten in Brig every Saturday in July. The perfect prelude to a warm summer evening!
