The Glasshouse

Cinematic. German. Redefining how guitars can sound.

Tens of thousands of visitors every year, standing ovations, and a fan culture worthy of rock stars: the duo Café del Mundo is Germany’s most successful guitar export. With their unique blend of flamenco, classical music, jazz, pop, and rock, Jan Pascal and Alexander Kilian are completely redefining the classical instrument that is the guitar.

They seem like “fire and water” — and it is precisely from this tension that they draw their magical energy. The protagonists Jan Pascal and Alexander Kilian could hardly be more different in character, yet on stage they merge into a world-class unity. Their live performances are captivating dialogues that regularly bring audiences to their feet. The Süddeutsche Zeitung summed it up perfectly with the accolade “audibly limitless.”

The duo Jan Pascal and Alexander Kilian first met at a workshop in 2007. Since then, they have released more than ten albums and established themselves as a permanent fixture in the international instrumental music scene. Their style combines Andalusian tradition with modern influences from pop, rock, and electronic music.
