  • 04/09/2023Andrea Pancur ist völlig überraschend Mitte August mit nur 54 Jahren gestorben
    Mit großer Bestürzung haben wir von dem völlig überraschenden und unerwarteten Tod von Andrea Pancur erfahren. Mit nur 54 Jahren ist die Sängerin, Chorleiterin, Veranstalterin und Erfinderin des Alpen-Klezmer-Genres Mitte August tot in ihrer Wohnung gefunden worden.

    Die Verbindung zwischen Andrea Pancur und Galileo Music reicht bis ins Jahr 2012 zurück. Bereits 2013 veröffentlichte Galileo Music ihr wegweisendes Album „Alpen-Klezmer“ mit ihrem musikalischen Partner Ilya Shneyveys, das ihr eine Einladung zum renommierten Tanz & Folk Festival in Rudolstadt einbrachte, wo sie den Hauptpreis der Ruthpreisverleihung überreicht bekam. Mit „Alpen-Klezmer - zum Meer“ und dem Weihnachts/Chanukka Album „Weihnukka“ folgten zwei weitere Alben, in denen Andrea ihren Wunsch nach Kulturverständigung auf künstlerisch höchstem Niveau zum Ausdruck brachte.

    Für Januar war die Veröffentlichung eines weiteren Albums mit ihrem neuen Projekt Pumpkin Machine geplant, und die Arbeit an der Veröffentlichung des Albums war bis kurz vor Andrea Pancurs Tod schon weit fortgeschritten.

    Andrea Pancur war eine der großen und großartigen Künstlerinnen von Galileo Music, die die Labelphilosophie von Galileo Music perfekt verkörperte. Es war uns eine große Ehre sie auf ihrem künstlerischen Weg begleiten zu dürfen. Ihr unerwarteter und viel zu früher Tod ist ein großer menschlicher und künstlerischer Verlust.

  • 04/09/2023Andrea Pancur died completely unexpectedly in mid-August at the age of just 54
    It was with great dismay that we learned of the completely surprising and unexpected death of Andrea Pancur. At only 54 years old, the singer, choir director, organizer and inventor of the alpine klezmer genre was found dead in her apartment in mid-August.

    The connection between Andrea Pancur and Galileo Music goes back to 2012. Back in 2013, Galileo Music released her groundbreaking album "Alpen-Klezmer" with her musical partner Ilya Shneyveys, which earned her an invitation to the prestigious Tanz & Folk Festival in Rudolstadt, where she was presented with the main Ruth Prize. With "Alpen-Klezmer - zum Meer" and the Christmas/Chanukka album "Weihnukka" two more albums followed, in which Andrea expressed her desire for cultural understanding at the highest artistic level.

    The release of another album with her new project Pumpkin Machine was scheduled for January, and work on the album's release was well underway until shortly before Andrea Pancur's death.

    Andrea Pancur was one of Galileo Music's great and magnificent artists who perfectly embodied Galileo Music's label philosophy. It was a great honor for us to accompany her on her artistic path. Her unexpected and much too early death is a great human and artistic loss.
