Herbert Pixner Projekt - Tour 2026
It all began in 2005 with the recording of the first album. Since then, the music project centred around the tireless multi-instrumentalist and composer Herbert Pixner has continued to evolve. Pixner often works with concise, direct and ironic references that border on sarcasm, and is a true sound artist with a subversive spirit. He likes to use his musical production as a form of social provocation, without ever striking a moralising tone.
The free and spontaneous musical interplay of tradition, punk, blues, classical, psychedelia and their progressive connections – through bold arrangements and unusual instrumentation – combined with an enormous joy of playing and an endless desire to improvise, has become the trademark of the Herbert Pixner Project. As a result, the formation has been effortlessly filling the largest concert halls in the German-speaking world for years.
In a short period of time, this unconventional instrumental ensemble has developed from an insider tip to one of the most sought-after and successful acts in the entire German-speaking music scene – and beyond. To date, they have played over 2,000 sold-out concerts, collaborated with various orchestras and released more than two dozen albums.
Line-up:
Herbert Pixner: Diatonic harmonica, flugelhorn, trumpet, clarinet, saxophone, euphonium, lamellophone, moderation
Manuel Randi: Electric guitar, Manouche guitar, flamenco guitar, mandolin
Alessandro Trebo: grand piano, keyboards
Heidi Pixner: Tyrolean harp
