Austrian musician, composer and painter, who performs internationally with numerous outstanding musicians & bands. With her chosen instruments, alto & soprano saxophone and duduk, she plays jazz, improvisational music and world music.
Edith’s unique sound and polychromatic talent have been shaped by an openness to different artistic genres and cultures and her numerous extended stays abroad (New York, Senegal, Morocco, Canada, Armenia, …). Improvisation seems to be written into her DNA; it drives her music, her art work, and it defines how she lives her life. She met Alessandro Vicard in Vienna more then 10 years ago and has been working with him since then and taken part in several RARA festival editions.
A studio session in Sicily with TRes Drei Trio with Antonio Longo on drums and Antonio Aiello on double bass will soon be released on vinyl.
Presently she spends half of her time in Sicily and half of her time in Vienna.
