GILLES APAP (Violin)
BRUNO MONSAINGEON (Viola)
ERIC FERRAND-N’KAOUA (Piano)
"Apap is a violinist of a different breed . . . One discovered. . . . at the side of his 'godfather' Yehudi Menuhin, a violinist unlike any other, mixing folk, pop, jazz and classical as he pleases. Eric Ferrand N’Kaoua, is a superb pianist
who shares the same concept of making music. Sometimes, classical music becomes bored with itself. One needs authentic artists like Gilles Apap to wake things up, even if that chagrins some pretty wits out on a Sunday afternoon and troubles those obsessed by habit. Its a good bet that the facetious Mozart would have loved hearing his work played
thus." --André Peyregne

"When Libetta and Itin joined forces for the "Suite No. 1 - Fantasie Tableaux for Two Pianos", Opus 5 by Rachmaninoff, the music making was unforgettable. While there was plenty of dazzling virtuosity in the performance, Libetta and Itin brought real depth and insight to Rachmaninoff's
music" Larry Budmen, Coral Gables Gazette
