(2 Playing Scores). Par GRECO JOSE LUIS. An intimate picture of a picture for violin and cello. A woman stands at a window, her back to the camera. Her silhouette is mesmerizing, seductive. Her posture and long braid of hair evoke an unspoken melancholy. / Date parution : 2022-04-26/ Répertoire / Violon et Violoncelle

Par SALLINEN AULIS. This celebratory duet was composed for the outgoing and incoming directors of the 2023 Naantali Festival to perform. Lasting around eight minutes, the piece is in a single, continuous movement comprised of contrasting episodes and is an ideal addition to a concert programme or for use in teaching. / Date parution : 2023-10-31/ Répertoire / Violon et Violoncelle

Par HOLLIGER HEINZ. Here's proof, if you ever needed it, that contemporary music can be humourous. Want to hear Mendelssohn's Wedding March beefed up with Wagner's Tristan? And enjoy listening out for the well-known melody of 'Tea for two' in the escapades of 'Three for two'? The entertaining collection were composed individually, and for a variety of purpose - some were congratulatory messages for well-known fellow musicians such as Elliott Carter or Thomas Demenga, but some were just composed while waiting at a bus stop! Hence, the pieces can be played either as effective encore pieces./ Répertoire / Violon et Violoncelle
