About

“The Singer & Fischer duo always causes great impact on the audience, adding to their playing a high virtuosity, perfect blend with a wide repertoire from baroque to current music. In the world premiere of my piece Dialogues of the Island and the Sea, recently on January 10 of this year, the entire public noticed a level of perfection so high that applause became a clamorous storm. This program made a great impression on me. Thank you for motivating me to write for your excellent duo.” (Leo Brouwer Zürich, January 2019) While they were students, Sebastien Singer and Andre Fischer formed a cello and guitar duo. Fascinated by chamber music, they decided to dedicate themselves to original repertoire for their unusual instrumental combination. They released their first album in 2015, which was warmly welcomed by music lovers and international press.

Awards and reviews

May/June 2020

The disc is titled after the 2018 guitar/cello duo La isla y el mar by the Cuban composer Leo Brouwer (b. 1939). This substantial piece of chamber music was dedicated to the musicians who perform it here. It is a work of considerable weight, again given an authoritative performance. The recording quality is warm and rich. I enjoyed this program primarily for the Brouwer.
