“These two young women play the violin with power and groove. Sometimes they sing along. What seem at first to be harmless folk songs go on to tell stories of love, lust and female desire.“ (Berit Brockhausen 2018)

“(…) their hands flew virtuosically over the strings of the violins, they were plucking and knocking and the instrument was played like a guitar. Everything fit, everything worked and sounded surprisingly innovative.

Their beautiful, clear voices complemented each other perfectly and, together with the music of the violins, one would think that more than two people were playing on stage.“ (Wittenburger Musikverein 2019)
