Reviews
«… a critical, sly and melancholy musical social history of women’s everyday life. Diverse love-, marriage-, mocking-, erotic-songs and lullabies carefully selected and sensitively interpreted by Christina Zurbrügg und Martin Auer … » (Brigitte)

«… not only a profound tuneful pleasure for the listener, but also a varied view of bygone female life – ordinary and extraordinary.» (Wiener Zeitung)

«… their relaxed, sometimes eye-twinkling way … easy handling … Christina Zurbrügg and Martin Auer … prove themselves to be interpreters familiar with any local timbre between the Bretagne and Macedonia, between the Tyrolean Pitztal and Ireland … The fact that men are allowed to enjoy this account too distinguishes this collection among others.» (Süddeutsche Nr. 229)
