Concert with "Lutz Brothers"

Rudolf (*1951) and Matthias (*1953) Lutz have been making music together since they were children. While it was the records of the "Golden Gate Quartet" that inspired them to play gospel music when they were young (vocal duet with Matthias on ukulele and Rudolf on piano), as young adults they founded a band together with colleagues called "Plebs". They performed jazz, pop, original compositions and folk music at weddings and birthday parties. Soon afterwards, their musical paths diverged:

Matthias Lutz studied saxophone and, in addition to his extensive band activities, worked as a music teacher at the Kantonsschule am Burggraben in St. Gallen. He was also bandmaster in the orchestra of the Circus Knie for a short time.

His brother Rudolf Lutz became a church musician, choir and orchestra director and worked as a lecturer at several universities.

It was only in later years that they began to work together again, mostly in church settings for services and concerts, whereby the duo, now known as the "Lutz Brothers", has built up a broad repertoire in various styles. In addition to classical music and old-time jazz (with a focus on the pieces of the legendary soprano saxophonist Sidney Bechet), they also play pop, rock and Latin groove. Their playing is characterized by strong spontaneity, playfulness and emotion. They still do it with great enthusiasm. Their motto:

"Keep swinging"!
