Stefanie Schumacher was born near Freiburg and is a
member of the „Ensemble Zeitsprung.“
She performs regularly as a guest with other
contemporary ensembles such as the „Ensemble
Oktopus.“
With works that she has herself commissioned, her
goal is to allow the direct emotional expression particularly
associated with the accordion in folk music to
influence the contemporary creation of new music for
her instrument.
„On an Overgrown Path“ by Leoš Janáček is the
centrepiece of the present CD recording.
