The second ensemble to take the stage on Children’s Saturday, ENKEL is a tender and bubbly pelimanni group whose repertoire covers hit songs from the 1800s all the way to the 2020s. The four musicians with distinct personalities place their trust in tradition, in the power of creativeness and in each other: in ENKEL, everyone gets to be a superhero in their own way! The ensemble has released three albums and amassed a faithful fan base of young and somewhat older pelimanni players, as well pelimanni-minded listeners.
