Description

On the day of her death, the Porchabella glacier corpse had covered her dark blond hair with netting and a felt hat and was wearing a blouse. She was dressed in leather shoes and wrapped in a long, lined wool coat. Investigations showed that the woman was 20 to 25 years old, had bad teeth and came from a rather poor background. However, who the young woman was, where she came from and how she died remains a mystery to this day.

In eight listening experiences , you will learn what this ominous woman was all about on the hike from Chants up to the Porchabella Glacier. Let yourself be drawn into this story of love and suffering between Camilla and Elis by the two well-known and trusted SRF voices (Isabelle Paris and Gian Rupf). The fascinating music world of Kappeler/Zumthor "flashes" and we promise:  Your eyes and ears will be opened...
