Workshop: The Transformer

Das Zelt’s gala night went off without a hitch and Hedreich is already preparing for the next musical events. After subbing for Sascha Oberholzer at this weekend’s private affair with Just Jazz, Hedreich will be doing final preparation for the choral workshop in Stans where she will transform 80 singers into a Gospel choir in 8 hours. Don’t believe it?! Come watch Hedreich flex her muscles as arranger, teacher and director. Unfortunately it’s too late to register to sing but the proof is in the pudding–or in this case, the concert. See you there!

Time Now, Art on Ice And More

“So Hot” was song and sound at this year’s Art on Ice VIP parties. The Gary Scott Band kept the party going with Gary augmenting the performance of his 8 piece ensemble by inviting stellar singers and musicians on stage to play with his dream team. GSB even played Toxic, the first cut from “Time Now” which has been selling steadily over hedreich.com. Toward Summer Hedreich’s fans can look for broader distribution in Switzerland and possibly abroad.

As things begin to thaw, our vocal all-arounder is on the move playing musical chameleon as only she can. Some Jazz at a ball or two, Das Zelt with Phil Dankner, 2 seminars plus music from Time Now with her band “The Boyz” will be keeping fans entertained while keeping her musically tuned and in tune! Check out the calendar to catch her doing her thing live at a venue near you.

Happy New Decade!!


The futuristic year 2010 came in with a bang at the Tschuggen Grand in Arosa. Hedreich and the Gary Scott Band kept the party going till the fireworks started and the gayly turned out crowd showed their appreciation by keeping the dance floor full and breaking only to grab morsels of the delectable edibles.

Now, safely nestled in the wintery Alpine countryside with a
couple of weeks off from the stage, our artist is busily working on the last phase of the CD production. Graphics, booklet, CD, PR and more. Stop back by to find out if there’s a release event near you.

Advent–of Another Kind

Since there was probably no star shining over Chicago’s Gravity Studios at 2am, we thought we’d announce it here–the baby is born! No, not that baby. And maybe it’s reaching a little to compare the two. Still, we’re proud to announce that the CD is finished! Doug McBride did the mastering with mixing engeneer James Auwarter and his assistant Miela giving valuable inputs. The first couple of reactions have been more than positive and although sudden peace on earth is probably not imminent, you can expect a good sound and rich stories that will hopefully make your corner of the world a tiny bit brighter. We’ll keep you posted on availability, concerts and all that jazz.

On other fronts, Vienna with the Inspirational Singers was exactly that–inspirational. With good music, incredibly beautiful venues like Schonbrunn at Christmastime and the Viennese guildhall (pictured) it was a picture postcard perfect.
With that, we here at hedreich.com would like to wish you the best and brightest of holidays with hopes that the magic and miracle of a long ago birth will carry you through the season and on into a prosperous 2010. If we don’t see you at the Tschuggen Grand Hotel in Arosa, see you next year!

Davos Sounds Good

This past Tuesday found Hedreich rocking the Davos culture prize ceremony. Yes, you read it right, rocking it! The distinguished guests at this formal ceremony morphed into a choir under Hedreich’s tutelage as they learned and helped to sing two songs from her upcoming CD. The evening found them dancing, clapping and singing along at this two-part event, staged at the Kirchener Museum and the Hotel Europe piano bar. Along with Tom Gisler on keys and Jost Müller on Cajon, the Culture Committe from Davos celebrated the evening in high musical style.

And on the CD front, we’d like to welcome aboard James Auwater or Chicago, Illinois. He’ll be spending the next weeks mixing the project to perfection–and he’s got the credentials to do it!
“The writing and recording phase was MUCH easier, ” says Hedreich. “This waiting is horrible!! It must be what it’s like to be a dad waiting for the baby to be born!” says Hedreich.

At least our artist will be spared the pacing in the waiting room. Although she will have the task of listening, revising and approving all mixes, while waiting she will have the honor of attending the Vienna International Choir Festival. The Inspirational Singers, will be singing in and around Vienna, including at the prestigious Schonbrunn Palace. Stop back by for details or join Hedreich’s facebook fan page to stay up to the minute on all the latest news.

On Tour!

The Inspirational Singers’ concert was so full that finally people had to unfortunately be turned away to avoid problems with the fire marshall. (What is it with Hedreich and law officials these days?!) The concert was by all accounts amazing with the whole aggregation up singing, clapping and rocking from side to side. In addition to an excellent performance by Hedreich and her choir, 11 year old Tiziana Krämer dazzled the audience with her rendition of Miley Cyrus’ “The Climb”.

Moving ahead, Hedreich did some dazzling of her own at Tropenhaus Frutigen (http://www.tropenhaus-frutigen.ch). Backed up by an all-star band, she got the illustrious crowd singing and dancing with some old favorites as well as a couple of tunes from her upcoming CD. She was even heard gracing Russian ambassador Igor Bratchikov with her own rendition of Moscow Evenings–in Russian! Finally on the 29th, Hedreich was once again with singing Gospel with the Konolfingen ad hoc Advent workshop choir for their 10th anniversary. After rehearsing all day Saturday and Sunday, she once again managed to get the choir and standing room only crowd up singing and swinging! Stop back by and we’ll see if we can get some pictures up soon!
