**Borsch4Breakfast** blends classical music, Balkan jazz, and contemporary folk into a captivating mix of sounds featuring the accordion, violin/viola, guitar, and double bass. Virtuoso arrangements meet spontaneous improvisation and innovative musical ideas. **Borsch4Breakfast** *Ionel Ungureanu (violin/viola), Henrik Dewes (guitar), Christoph Rehorst (double bass/vocals), Ratko Pavlovic (accordion)* With its program “Appetizer,” the ensemble Borsch4Breakfast serves up a musical explosion of flavors: a hearty soup of classical music, Balkan jazz, contemporary folklore, and spontaneous improvisation, in which each musician is free to stir their personal favorite ingredients into the stew. Four polyphonic instruments—accordion, viola, double bass, and guitar—blend into an irresistible mix of sounds. One moment, jazzy rhythms tickle your feet; the next, a quiet melody evokes memories of old folk songs. Borsch4Breakfast explores the origins of folk music, arranges pieces, composes new works, and leaves room for improvisation. With its rousing rhythms and expressive melodies, the quartet has already conquered the stages of the Heidelberg Spring Festival and the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival. **Venue:** Kommandantenhaus Dilsberg/Hof Open Air **Doors open:** 6:30 PM **Ticket reservations:** Tel. 06221 522-1356 Email: [kulturstiftung@rhein-neckar-kreis.de](mailto:kulturstiftung@rhein-neckar-kreis.de) **Admission:** 15.00 euros
