Old Music on New Strings

Demarquette began his musical career when he was barely 17 and was immediately noticed by the famous violinist Sir Yehudi Menuhin. His career has led him to cities all over the world, performing with the finest musicians among whom his favourite partners are Boris Berezovsky, M Dalberto, Giovanni Bellucci, Jean-Philippe Collard. Sitkovetsky has performed as a soloist with a number of the world's leading orchestras including the Berlin, New York and LA Philharmonic Orchestras, Leipzig Gewandhaus, Concertgebouw Orchestra and more. His transcription of the Goldberg Variations are celebrated as not only a new perspective of the musical text, but more importantly, a revelation of hidden meanings and textures in the original composition. Caussé is widely acclaimed as one of the greatest international viola talents currently. He performs and records regularly with Emmanuel Krivine, Charles Dutoit, Kent Nagano, Gidon Kremer, Maria João Pires, Augustin Dumay, François-René Duchable,

Paul Meyer, Renaud and Gautier Capuçon.

The musicians are looking forward to their performance and are full of praise for Indian music sensibilities. "India has a knowledgeable and appreciative audience," Demarquette says. "We hope it to be a great concert with all these masterpieces," Caussé adds.
