About this user

Elfenthal is right now one of the underground alternative bands with most sales of the country. From zero, by themselves, they remained in the German media-control top 100 charts for many weeks with their debut album "Tales from the Secret Forest" reaching the number 1 position in several charts. A big achievement, especially for a band playing Celtic and symphonic Rock, Neoclassic, fantasy and Early music.

Right now they tour with their show "The Blue Elf's Dream", a Rock-Opera-ballet, and they are already working in the preparation of the next big stage show. The visually attractive concept of the shows, with self-designed costumes, choreographies, ballet dancers, the story and concept that joins the whole show and the surprises with the radical music style changes make the audience be in tension till the end of the show, when the "Solstice night dance" breaks the barriers between both worlds, joining humans and fairies in dance on stage...

Parallel to the Rock-Opera show, Elfenthal has a second music formation with different musicians on stage. An early music ensemble formed by specialized singers and performers playing historical instruments. Their repertoire includes between others, compositions from Codex Calixtinus, Llibre Vermell, Alfonso X, Juan del Encina, Hildegard von Bingen... A hight quality selection of performers where the special trained voices have a very important role. Their new album, "An Ancient Story" is the first album of the early music ensemble Elfenthal.

Maite Itoiz is the producer of the band. With two complete classical careers under her belt (classical guitar and lyric singing) and years performing as an opera singer with some of the most important singers of the world together with her very open mind for all types of music make her compositions and arrangements sound big and magic. As a consequence, she spends a lot of time at the studio, producing also for various other artists.
Due to her studies and vocal experience performing in Early Music ensembles, she fearlessly inserts music starting from the 12th century in the live show, following the original scores but performing with the rock band. Surprisingly it fits perfectly with the rest of the Celtic-rock and fantasy music program, making from the Rock-Opera a unique act.

After 30 years of musical career, John Kelly has sold over 20 million albums and 2.5 million music videos. Now he adds his warm voice, charming look and Celtic spirit to the Rock-Opera show and to the Early Music ensemble. He performed together with artists like Lionel Richie, Pavarotti, Carreras, Joe Cocker or Elton John and got awards like the Echo, Goldene Kamera, Bambi, golden Otto, etc. Now he gives his knowledge of so many years to "Elfenthal", managing it himself.
