The ingenuity of these composers evidences itself in the avant-garde techniques contained throughout these compositions, and by their brilliant and often humorous allusions to the vernacular and popular culture of their respective eras. The listener will hear tunes such as 'Yankee Doodle,' 'God Save the Queen,' 'The Stars and Stripes Forever,' Handel's ever-present G minor Passacaglia, and will recognize borrowed elements from the folk and jazz idioms. REVIEW Violinist Arianna Warsaw-Fan and cellist Meta Weiss duoW - burst onto the international music scene when their video 'Ghosts and Flowers' went viral on the internet in 2011. Strongly committed to bringing classical music to new audiences, these two Juilliard grads launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund the production of the video. Their new debut album presents five virtuosic works that challenge the capabilities of the violin and cello partnership. --WFMT, Lisa Flynn, August 2013 Entendre is as enticing an introduction to the artistry of duoW as could be imagined. These young ladies offer playing that goes far beyond the technically-proficient instrumentalism that is heard from so many young players who emerge from the world's conservatories today. What is more, Entendre offers performances of marvelous music that is off the beaten paths traversed by most of the world's better violinists and cellists. Ms Warsaw-Fan's and Ms Weiss's playing in this performance is not of the coolly exhibitionist nature of important artists in the concert hall, and Entendre is all the more enjoyable for it: rather, this is music-making of the sort that occurs when two fabulous artists for whom playing is a true joy meet and play merely for their own pleasure. Many debut discs raise the question of what comes next for the artists at hand, but Entendre leaves no doubt that the young ladies of duoW are poised to significantly influence the dialogue between violin and cello in the 21st Century. Thanks to Sono Luminus, those who love these instruments have this opportunity to witness a vital step in the artistic genesis of what is sure to remain one of contemporary Classical Music's greatest partnerships. --Voix des Arts, Joseph Newsome, August 2013 "Bold playing and rich sound distinguish this disc of chamber music for violin and cello." --Listen Winter Reviews, 2013MPN: DSL92171EAN: 0053479217127Type: Chamber MusicRelease Year: 2013Tracks: 1: Allegro Serioso, Non Troppo2: Adagio - Andante3: Maestoso E Largamente, Ma Non Troppo Lento - Presto4: Passacaglia in G Minor5: Grand Duo De Concert6: Allegro7: Très Vif8: Lent9: Vif, Avec Entrain10: Stars & Stripes Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
