Gretli & Heidi by Gretli & Heidi
After years on the vaudeville stage, the ’visual music’ by
Gretli & Heidi has reached its sounding perfection.
Their voices blend perfectly together with glass bells and bottles.
Their fingertips produce ravishing sounds from the 27 tuned crystal glasses in the glass harp.
Sometimes they pick up their accordions and play along to happy songs with a scent of Central European ländler and beer house.
Gretli & Heidi mix poetry and humour in an irrepressible clutter.

Gretli & Heidi, otherwise known as composers Catharina Backman and Carin Blom,
started their collaboration as musical vaudeville artists, touring around Sweden in a circus tent with Variété Vauduvill.
Their acts took place in a fantasy world studded with edelweiss embroided dresses, lace blouses and men in lederhosen,
to the sound of cow bells, yodel, percussive everyday objects and step dance.
