Toni Brutscher Trio

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Toni Brutscher Trio was a well-known trio from Oberstdorf in the 1950s and 1960s . It consisted of Toni Brutscher ( accordion ), Toni Gruber ( guitar ) and Ottomäx Titscher ( bass violin ). Together with the Trettach Trio , the Toni Brutscher Trio was one of the pioneers in Allgäu trio music.

The Toni Brutscher Trio was founded in 1949 on the occasion of a sociable evening with Sepp Weiler on the Hochleite near Oberstdorf . That evening the ski jumper Toni Brutscher , the innkeeper Toni Gruber and the head of the Oberstdorf ski school Ottomäx Titscher got together and received so much applause for their first appearance that the trio became very well known in the following years and in many cities in Germany and on the radio and television performed.

Curiosity

The recordings for the record Urlaubgrüße aus Oberstdorf had to be postponed several times because Toni Brutscher's accordion from the Rappenseehütte fell 50 meters down and was completely destroyed in the process and the recording date had to be postponed until the manufacturer delivered a new accordion. One day before the next appointment, Ottomäx Titscher broke his right arm, which made it necessary to postpone the appointment again.
