Duo

Daniel Studer & Sylvain Monchocé

Duo Monchocé Studer cover

„…Monchocé and Studer set up a flexible discourse working on the strings,

 

stylistically elusive, but endowed with an enviable communicative capacity. Both musicians play on instruments with a long strings and both use similar extended preparations/techniques (arco, pizzicato, sticks, splited strings, etc.). This ensures a coherence in the basic structure of the sound.

This duo is remarkable! It is truly difficult to find such a beautiful realization of intent around, it is an epiphany of improvised dialogue.“
