Good things come to those who wait.
Since many years this children’s tale was growing in the head of Martin Ketelhut. Fragments and little pieces of this moving story about the two brothers Elias and Gilbathin are to be found in every little inch of every little Zonnhaider’s Club song.

It’s always been the dream of Martin to bring the pieces together and with the help of friends (amongst others the paintress Katharina Sieg and bandmate Christoph Höfferl) he finally realized “The Path To New Gilbathin”. Produced and directed by Martin Ketelhut at Bauhaus-University Weimar for Experimental Radio.

You can hear the radio play on the Gilbathin homepage: www.thezonnhaidersclub.de/gilbathin

Although “The Path To New Gilbathin” is in english (spoken by Germans… even kids who don’t speak english), you have the opportunity to watch it with German subtitles.

In addition to the radio play The Zonnhaider’s Club is about to record “Gilbathin’s Opera“, an album of 10 songs that refer to the radio play’s story and moods. These songs are sung by the protagonists Elias (Christopher Schön) and Gilbathin (Cornelius Ochs, www.myspace.com/connyochs) themselves.
“Gilbathin’s Opera” will be released in 2010 at Discorporate Records, featuring the paintings of Katharina Sieg and the music of Martin Ketelhut.
