About
Duos for viola and cello are not exactly a typical chamber music genre - at first glance, the contrast between the two instruments, which play in a similar register, seems too small. However, it is this lack of a clearly dominant voice that compels both composer and listener to concentrate on this intimate chamber music. On their new CD Katrin Melcher and Martin Ostertag explore this distinctive sound world with a series of original compositions.
