New, unusual, exciting – how many of us can say they’ve ever heard an accordion and zither performing together? After three successful GENUIN solo CDs, Swiss accordionist Viviane Chassot joins with partner Martin Mallaun on the zither, setting out for the first time on a chamber music journey. And right from the outset, the path leads us deep into the jungle, into the blank spaces on our musical map: the program features selections from Couperin to Cage, most of them arranged by the artists themselves. In the blink of an eye, the Renaissance merges with 20th century music, tango, and the avant-garde. A journey that promises this year’s most exciting chamber music discoveries!

„Equally superbly recorded and performed, this is something of a surprise hit and deserves wide popularity. I hope that Duo Chassot/Mallaun go further and are able to score some original works as well as these admirable and highly entertaining arrangements.“

Wärmste Empfehlung auf Französisch - auch als Weihnachtsgeschenk - von Michael Murray-Robertson:
"Le duo Chassot-Mallaun caresse chaque phrase avec tristesse, danse avec légèreté dans les deux pièces de François Couperin ou taquine gentiment dans les Chess Pieces de John Cage. Ainsi nos interprètes font-ils dialoguer des compositeurs que l’histoire avait séparés. (...) S’ajoute enfin à cela l’excellente présentation de ce CD qui ferait un cadeau de Noël idéal!"
