Why Are the Swiss Listening to Hummel for Fortepiano and Guitar? A Lighthearted Take!

Ah, the Swiss! Known for their precision, punctuality, and of course, their delicious chocolate and impeccable watches. But did you know that they have a soft spot for the music of Johann Nepomuk Hummel, especially when it comes to fortepiano and guitar? Yes, you heard it right!

Now, we all know that the Swiss are a bit particular. They have a reputation for being organized to a fault, which might explain why they appreciate Hummel’s meticulously crafted compositions. After all, what could be better than the harmonious blend of fortepiano and guitar to accompany their perfectly timed train schedules?

And let’s not forget their love for neutrality! While the world around them may be in chaos, the Swiss find solace in Hummel’s serene melodies. It’s like a musical embrace, wrapping them in a warm, cozy blanket while they enjoy a cup of hot cocoa on a snowy day.

But wait, there’s more! The Swiss are also known for their love of nature and the outdoors. Perhaps they listen to Hummel while hiking up the stunning Alps, letting the enchanting sounds of the fortepiano and guitar echo through the valleys. Just picture it: a group of hikers pausing to take in the breathtaking views, all while humming a Hummel tune. It’s a scene straight out of a Swiss postcard!

We’re thrilled to share that the Duo Savigni’s album, "Pot Pourri (Musica Novantiqua)", has made its way into the iTunes® / Apple Music Charts: Top Albums Classical in Switzerland! So, the next time you see a Swiss person, don’t be surprised if they’re tapping their feet to Hummel’s delightful melodies. After all, who wouldn’t want to add a little musical flair to their perfectly organized lives?
