On the occasion of her fiftieth birthday, Agnes Palmisano presents a cross-section of diverse Viennese Dudler and so-called coloratura yodels from two centuries under the album title "Dudel-Diva". The Viennese Dudler (the urban form of yodeling that emerged from the tradition of today's Theater an der Wien), listed as Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO since 2010, has in her one of the best and most successful interpreters today, who, together with a select ensemble of specialists in this cultural heritage, is able to bring the entire range of Viennese Dudler to the point and to the ear in a unique way. To this end, she is collaborating with the duo Wiener Blond, Die Gebruder and members of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra. The bandwidth of this exemplary album ranges from the beginning of the yodel in the early 19th century to contemporary new compositions.
