Annwn is a German medieval and pagan folk band from North Rhine-Westphalia that was originally founded as a duo with guest musicians.
history
The band was founded in 2006 by Sabine Hornung and Tobias von Schmude. The band name is derived from Annwn - the otherworld in island Celtic mythology. A year later, their first album Orbis Alia was released . After guest musicians such as Jule Bauer on the nyckelharpa and frame drum , Reiner Jungmann on the hurdy-gurdy and Sarah Freywald on the flutes , new musicians were won for the second album. These include: Barbara ( cello ), Eva ( violin , viola ), Christoph Kammer ( percussion , violone , cister , vocals), Chrissy (flutes) and Dirk Freyer, who supports the group in their electric stage program with orchestra and choir samples.
In 2014 Tobias von Schmude left the band and the band was reorganized. Bettina Witzel (flutes, gemshorn), Jonas Liesenfeld (violin, nyckelharpa, vocals), Anne Höltzenbein (hurdy-gurdy, violin, saz , vocals), Arne Harder ( guitarrón , baroque lute , cister, oud , vocals) and Anja Herrmann (percussion) , Vocals).
style
Harp and vocals are the focus of the arrangements, which are expanded by adding further instruments.
