Since 2011, French-Italian-German quartet “Die Hochstapler” (The Impostors) have developed a highly personal musical style
based on orality and memory. They develop their music collectively in extensive rehearsal periods. Game structures, alphabets,
texts from Beckett to Kerouac form the basis for a radically free discourse. Four independent voices, free to suggest, pretend,
agree, disagree or ignore at any time, playful and ever changing.
