The two musicians choose French music for their debut. Why? Perhaps because this "sound-language" expresses the essence of both instruments in all their variety with unique and heartfelt sincerity. Perhaps because this repertoire offers the greatest spectrum of possibilities for assembling a unified programm. Perhaps because one piece is especially important: the Fantasie of Camille Saint-Saëns - the duo's declaration of love for their music.
