Die Ladiner (February 26, 2005)
Date broadcast: February 26, 2005

I met Joakin Stuffer at the Marc Pircher Fest in 2004 in Austria and asked if I could have an interview with him. We set a date where I called him at his home in Sudtirol and we had a nice discussion about the songs he sings. His brother composes most of the songs they record and they are one of the few groups I interviewed who have a Fan Club-USA here in Oregon.

Marc Pircher (August 21, 2004)

Date broadcast: August 21, 2004

Marc Pircher was the 3rd interview I did for the Stimmung Stunde. He is a very energetic person on the stage and off. In 2005 we went to his Marc Pircher Fest in Austria and were able to see him in action on the stage. Then in 2006 we saw him perform in Blankenberg, Belgium. He has over 300 live performances a year. You have to have a lot of energy to keep up with his schedule. This was after he won the Grand Prix der Volksmusik in 2004 for his song "Hey Dirndl".
