Geschwister Pfister's story
Who doesn't know the four Zermatter orphan children Lilo, Willi, Toni and Ursli Pfister? They
early became orphans and the local welfare services remembered the only alive relative. This is why the
brothers and sister came to their uncle Bill in Las Vegas. He discovered their enormous musical talent and
through young people competitions and TV-shows, they grew up to be popular children stars in the United States
hard disputed show business.
As the quartet came back for the first time to Europe at the beginning of the 90s, it conquered
the hearts of the public, and the tour which should actually have only lasted a couple of weeks, would be
extended ever and ever again.
Willi had to go back to Las Vegas to his wife and children. In the meanwhile
Lilo fell in love in a Swiss farm. Ursli and Toni though,
stood by their fans. Together with their musical director Johannes Roloff, they
decided to produce a new show.
A drummer and a bassist and the wonderful Fräulein Schneider, the ideal addition to a dazzling trio,
joined them. Toni had already acknowledged that Fräulein Schneider had not only a
wonderful voice but also looked enchanting which could not only come from her Bulgarian extraction.
Toni Pfister and Fräulein Schneider married in March 1995 after their musical trip to Wolfgangsee.
The Pfisters then built their own army during the summer 1995 ("For
peaceful and fair entertainment") and during the fall 1996 they went in space for the NASA
as cultural US ambassadors...
