Erlaube mir, feins Mädchen (aus „Brahms Volkslieder“)

Franui is the name of a mountain pasture in the small Austrian (East Tyrolean) village of Innervillgraten, 1,402 meters above sea level, where most of the Franui musicians grew up.

The Musicbanda of the same name, who have been playing together in nearly the same line-up since 1993, produce an immediately recognizable sound (due to the special blend of woodwind and brass, bowed and other string instruments).

Franui are regularly invited to perform at major festivals and venues (e.g. Wiener Festwochen/Konzerthaus Wien, Burgtheater, Wiener Staatsoper, Mozarteum Salzburg, Tiroler Festspiele Erl, Philharmonie Luxembourg, Kunstfest Pélerinages Weimar, Schauspielhaus Hamburg).
