Leopold Jansa Duo — Music for Violin and Violoncello
Leopold Jansa Duo plays instruments adjusted to baroque, classical, and romantic period practices. Combining historical performance principles with a modern technique, they evoke the spirit of each musical epoch to reveal the richness and diversity of the repertoire.
Playfulness and a historical sensibility spanning three centuries are the keys to their approach to music that experienced its first blossoming in the Salons of the early nineteenth century. Juxtaposing less well-known pieces of the genre with more familiar ones, they seek to reveal the historical development and distinctive allure of the String Duo.
