Enchanted melodies, mysterious lyrics and hypnotic rhythms - with FATE & WISDOM, Bianca St?cker and Rafaela Sch?tzner carry you off into a world between dream and reality on their first album together. An atmospheric mixture of old tunes and new pieces unleashes a mystical mood, which merges into one through polyphonic singing, acoustic sounds and subtle electronics. Authentic and modern at the same time, the nine tracks announce ancient wisdom, the magic of fate and the magic of nature. Already the pre-single "Vienna", probably one of the most unusual cover versions of the Ultravox hit, shows the bandwidth of the two musicians with harpsichord, harp, dulcimer, flute and intoxicating whistle. And now even more instruments are added: cittern, string psaltery, recorders, nyckelharpa, darabouka, jingles and cymbals. Lovingly researched are also the texts, which range from Spanish poets to H?lderlin and the Merseburg magic spells to the "Chymischer Lustg?rtlein", a collection of alchemistic texts and pictures. The two multi-instrumentalists sing and play dark-enchanted "twilight melodies" - music for twilight, full moon nights and magical moments. Bianca pieces: Vocals, harpsichord, dulcimer, recorders, string psaltery, intoxicating whistle, nyckelharpa, synths, percussion. Rafaela Sch?tzner: Vocals, harp, flute, cittern.
