Nurit Stark | Cédric Pescia
This gripping duo of Nurit Stark and Cédric Pescia is on the one hand authentically raw and wild, and on the other hand infinitely tender and delicate. This is music that gets under your skin!
The duo unites two top-class soloists who can be heard regularly on the international concert podiums. Audiences and the press appreciate the two instrumentalists for their outstanding feeling for handling sound qualities.
The programs of Duo Stark are particularly characterized by the exciting dialogue between classical-romantic and rarely heard or contemporary works.
After their highly acclaimed debut CD with works by Busoni, a recording with works by Clara and Robert Schumann was released by CLAVES, which also received a broad media response. Most recently, the duo released a recording with works by Bloch.

Bloch Sonatas | CLAVES | Ernest Bloch: Violin Sonata No. 1 in A minor – 1. Agitato
Stark and Pescia are restrained, thoughtful, colouristic interpreters, exploring the Hassidic lyric episodes at around the ten and twelve-minute mark with acuity and sensitivity. The pianist’s chording is both powerful and beautifully balanced. The structural awareness in the performance is excellent. www.musicweb-international.com | CD Bloch | Jonathan Woolf
Ferruccio Busoni/ George Enescu | CLAVES | George Enescu: Sonata for Violin and Piano No. 3 Op. 25 “dans le caractère populaire roumain” – I. Moderato malinconico II. Andante sostenuto e misterioso III. Allegro con brio, ma non troppo mosso
