Turkalj is a Croatian composer and performer known for his work blending elements of classical music, ambient soundscapes, and traditional Croatian folk music. His compositions often feature prepared piano, incorporating objects placed on or between the strings to alter the instrument's timbre, alongside electronic processing and field recordings. He frequently explores themes of memory, landscape, and cultural identity within his pieces.

Riehen Dorf is the village center of Riehen, a municipality bordering Basel, Switzerland. Historically a farming village, Riehen has retained a distinct character despite its proximity to the city. The Dorf area features well-preserved traditional buildings dating back several centuries, including half-timbered houses and the landmark Riehen church. It serves as the social and administrative hub for the community and hosts various local events throughout the year. The area’s architecture reflects its long history as an independent entity before becoming part of the Canton of Basel-Stadt. Performances are sometimes held in or near the Dorfplatz (village square), though specific venue details for this concert are currently unavailable.
