Concerttour in Germany
This february was dominated by 7 concerts all over Germany. Unforgettable is our evacuation by the local fire brigade in Bad Oldesloe, who entered the hall rather harsh during Mancuso’s „Non ti à piaciato“. Performers and audience had to leave the venue immediately due to heavy storms. Our concert in the radio station of NDR Hannover was remarkable by the premiere of Dorothe Hahne’s work „Dance macabre“ for four recorders and was recorded for broadcasting. We will keep you posted about the exact date.
Recording of promotion CD for Küng
QNG in the studio of the University of the Arts in Berlin, recording a promotion-CD for the Swiss recorder manufacturer KÜNG. You will find the MiniCD at Küng´s booth at the Frankfurt Music Fair.
ORF
Austrian radio ORF was broadcasting „Still Life“ by Marianthi Papalexandri-Alexandri and „Pari Intervallo“ by Arvo Pärt – both from our CD Ethereal – during ZEIT-TON on 20th february at 23.05 in Ö1. Listen webradio here . 
QNG at Ultraschall/Berlin in January.
We especially enjoyed performing at the Ultraschall-Festival for contemporary music in Berlin. The work Arak written by PETROS OVSEPYAN for QNG was premiered, further we performed some more recently for QNG written works, such as GORDON BEEFERMANs Passages (2007), MICHIEL MENSINGHs 2007 – A Space Odyssey (2007), ALLA ZAGAYKEVYCHs Pagode-Vision (2006). We will keep you posted when the radio broadcasts the recorded concert.
QNG in Japan
QNG visited Japan the second time and performed concerts in Matsuyama, Kashima, Hamamatsu, Yaizu, Ise and Tokyo. Between the hard work, we also had time to visit the Fujiyama, bath in hot springs, see shrines and castles, eat sushi and smoked octopus and to make Christmas shopping. We thank our manager and all-day companion Toshitake Nakamura for his patience, fun and care during the tour and Yamaha, who did repair the broken keys of our Yamaha instruments in between the tour.
