Summer / Live Earth

Did you hear her?? Singing on the beach? Summer did find our artist singing on the sandy shores of Tuscany, but it was more like autumn’s blues after losing her Mother-in-law (she was the last grandparent) in early July.

It was in this reflective mood that Hedreich sang on the Live Earth Hallenstadion stage on 7.7.07. Live Earth was a 24-hour, 7-continent concert series that brought together more than 100 artists and 2 billion people to trigger a global movement to solve the climate crisis. With Swiss circuit favorites like Steve Lee and Lunik as well as household names like Genesis and Madonna all taking part, it was a moment of environmental solidarity for the music world.

For Hedreich not only her lifestyle but also her career reflects changes that positively influence the environment. Music for Nature being picked up by the WWF was a special honor. “The producers Lorenz and Beni don’t just talk the talk, they walk the walk. The whole project has been an extension of what they stand for every day. I learned so much good stuff for living while hanging with them!” says Hedreich, who proudly proclaims she lives much more environmentally aware now as opposed to 15 years ago.

Ten years of inspiration

With next year being the 10th anniversary year of the Glarner inspirational Singers, the choir is busier than ever. Hedreich is working overtime as director and musical director putting the concept together. And after vocal classes and an all day workshop in addition to the regular rehearsal schedule, the singers will be ready to rock the house for the upcoming live recording session on September the 21st. The grand event takes place in historic Hänggiturm Ennenda and is open to the public.
