The story

Schrammel.Klang.Festival in Litschau

Schrammel.Klang.Festival is a music festival at Lake Herrensee in Litschau, in the Waldviertel region, founded in 2007 by Zeno Stanek to honor the town's historical link to Schrammel music's founding family. Its Schrammelpfad format sends audiences along a lakeside forest path to hear unamplified performances on natural stages, alongside evening concerts at the purpose-built Herrensee Theater, and the festival is repeatedly certified as an Austrian Green Event.

Zeno Stanek founded the Schrammel.Klang.Festival in 2007 at Lake Herrensee in Litschau, Austria's northernmost town, choosing the location because of its direct connection to Schrammel music's origins: clarinetist Kaspar Schrammel, father of the brothers who gave the genre its name, was born and raised in Litschau before moving to Vienna, where his sons Johann and Josef developed the string ensemble style now known worldwide as Schrammelmusik.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Litschau's direct genealogical link to Schrammel music, as the birthplace of Kaspar Schrammel, father of the brothers who created the genre, gives this festival a historical claim no other Schrammel-music event can match

02

The mystery stays covered

The Schrammelpfad's unamplified, natural-stage format around Lake Herrensee is distinctive among Austrian music festivals, and its sustained Austrian Environmental Label certification since 2012 marks it as a pioneer of low-impact festival production

03

The city starts moving

Its 2018 induction into the Hall of Fame of the national nachhaltig gewinnen sustainability competition further set it apart, recognizing a small rural music festival alongside far larger institutions for environmental practice, a distinction few Austrian festivals of any size have achieved
