Pierre Baillot — Duo for Two Violins
Baillot brings a friendly, cute, and quietly noble atmosphere — the musical equivalent of a really good one‑on‑one conversation at a party. The two violins trade ideas with gentle charm, as though they’re sharing something personal just between them. It’s warm, elegant, and full of understated delight.

Charles Dancla — Duo
Dancla starts with some musical tension, like a storm is forming outside, but a lively dance puts the gathering darkness out of our minds for a while. Nevertheless, the storm's intensity increases and fights for our attention, until abruptly the sky clears and allows the dancing to continue without further interruption. We take the time to wallow in a little romance and a ravishing waltz... but then we have a dramatic and exhilarating finale as the bad weather returns with a vengeance, in the form of a full‑blown musical thunderstorm!
