One singer and one pianist. If it is the pair of Koščová - Špiner, you will not miss anyone else there. No big ensemble, just two performers and co-creators are completely enough to touch the viewer in the deepest places. At Katka and Dan's concerts, one laughs and cries, the viewer becomes a witness and part of an intimate statement, true friendship, lyrical experience and shared humor. Katka and Daniel will be nearby, close to touch. This is how they are most believable to themselves and to others.
Kate:
"This is my favorite way to play, like this in pairs. I feel like that's when the best comes out in both of us. The most relaxed, the most free.'
Katarína and Daniel released a new album called Krehkość in November 2023, which won the prestigious Slovak Radio_Head Awards in the folk category for 2023. The entire album was created in a log cabin under the Tatras. Organically, without preparation, recorded with all the noise, dirt and life around. The result is songs about intimacy, beauty, but also pain, fragility and transience of the moments we live. Musical fragility captured without embellishments and filters. The basis of the minimalistic arrangements is piano and vocals, sometimes double bass, guitar and accordion are heard unobtrusively. Czech singer and actor Ondřej Ruml is a guest in two tracks.
Katarína also has successful concerts with the Geišbergs. As a guest, she regularly performed concerts with the Czech folk legend Neřež. She sang with Dan Bárt, the jazz AMC trio, the swing Prešovský Dixieland and many other bands and performers. She set several texts by Michal Horáček to music, two of them – Christmas Eve, Over the Bridge without Stockings – became part of Horáček's Czech Calendar project. The Christmas Eve song was sung by Katarína as a duet with Vojtěch Dyko.
