Musik und Skifahren - beide Hobbys hat die 36-jährige Urnerin Maria Gehrig zum Beruf gemacht. Im Moment ist sie häufig als Skilehrerin auf der Piste, gleichzeitig aber stellt sie die CD «Nordwind», von «Eiger, Mönch und Urschwyz» vor. Bereits mit 4 Jahren begann Maria Gehrig mit dem Blockflötenspiel. Bald auch schon trat sie mit ihrer Familienkapelle auf, der Hüüsmüsig Gehrig. Mit 8 Jahren kam die Geige dazu und wurde ihr Hauptinstrument. Bei Gehrigs wurde viel musiziert: Vor der Schule übten sie und ihr Bruder Fränggi schon jeden Tag eine halbe Stunde, am Nachmittag oder am Abend wurde dann auch wöchentlich geprobt. Gehrigs fanden aber immer auch genügend Zeit für den Sport - in Andermatt lag natürlich das Skifahren und Bergsteigen nahe. Maria Gehrig hat beide Leidenschaften zum Beruf gemacht: Zusätzlich zum Beruf als Violinistin in Klassik und Volksmusik arbeitet sie im Winter seit jeher als Skilehrerin. Anlass für den Besuch im Musikwelle-Brunch ist ihr neues Album mit der Formation «Eiger, Mönch und Urschwyz». Zusammen mit den bekannten Brunner-Schwestern Kristina und Evelyne und der Schwyzer Geigerin Hanna Landolt. Der CD-Titel «Nordwind» unterstreicht ihr gemeinsames Interesse an skandinavischer Volksmusik.

Thanks for joining us today for this very special episode of Inside Music Row.  We’re taking a look back at a few of our very special stories, and this next piece is no exception.  When people look out for others, and help raise money for terrible illnesses, it always gives you an extraordinary feeling.  When the incredible songwriters at Adroit Records got involved in helping battle Lou Gehrig’s disease…wonderful things seemed to happen.

Adroit Records recently made an incredible album of hits, recorded by their original songwriters.  Their emphasis on writing and the true art of a song has been refreshing in the business today.  The new label is also making a community contribution with a benefit concert to raise money for a family to fight A-L-S, more commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.
