The duo Kakaliagou / Schmoliner  was founded in February 2016 during their artist in residence at artacts in Tyrol / Austria.

Their debut release NABELÒSE which they composed and recorded at the Alte Gerberei was released  March 2017.

The compositions for this song cycle NABELÒSE are influenced by alpine and greek folk music and have grown to new compositions – through the expanded playing techniques on the piano, horn and voice.

Also the two artists have known each other for many years, and besides their trio PARA, which has been founded in 2011, they are active in a variety of ensembles in the fields of improvised – experimental – contemporary music, folk music and free jazz.
This contemporary song cycle was released in collaboration with the artist Wendelin Büchler and the in Berlin based  L
abel Corvo Records. It is a handnumbered edition.
