Pilgrim offers a new definition of pilgrimage. Good shoes may not be essential, but a large rucksack certainly is. After all, the quintet’s pack list includes a saxophone (Christoph Irniger), a piano (Stefan Aeby), a bass (Raffaele Bossard), a guitar (Dave Gisler) and drums (Michi Stulz). Since 2010, the formation under the guidance of Christoph Irniger has been constantly exploring new musical paths. The quest itself is the goal. Further equipped with spontaneity, the sheer joy of playing, and the greatest possible freedom of expression for each band member, they create pieces beyond the confines of rules that put the emphasis on the musical experience itself. The stage becomes both their playground and the road on which they undertake their journey of discovery.
