It's great fun to see how Double Drums, the percussion duo of Alexander Glöggler and Philipp Jungk, get to work. Two percussionists have rarely been seen swirling across the stage like that. Not only popular drum kits and percussion utensils belong to their rich range of instruments, but all sorts of sounding utensils, up to hardware store equipment such as saws or drills. And yet, beyond their showmanship, the musical result always speaks for itself. This is proven by the four CDs they have released so far, and even more by their most recent project: "Groovin 'Christmas". Once again, the project was born out of the sheer fun of the percussive experiment: "We just like to fool around on stage at the soundcheck or during the rehearsals. Last winter, we played around on cans and pots and came across 'Jingle Bells', probably because of the season. That was very funny, especially because it quickly moved in a completely different direction," says Jungk. Quickly the two had licked blood: Why not make a Christmas CD with their special instruments, one, that really does not exist yet?" Christmas and drums - that seems to be a total contradiction. That's exactly what appealed to us and was the original idea for this CD," reports Jungk. So that the supposedly incompatible, inappropriate, fits together perfectly, is now demonstrated by Double Drums on a percussion journey across genres, styles and continents. Glöggler and Jungk show how much rhythm is in Christmas music, but also how much melody and emotion can be found in percussion.
