“Duo Chinoiserie has found a unique voice, a new way of expressing music. Never before had I heard such a moving and impressive combination. They keep audiences in awe of their mastery and profound musicality. Their attractive phrasing of melodies is paired with an impressive level of technical difficulty. Their work demonstrates an instinctive understanding of the emotive and transformative power of a piece. They play with a strong finesse that produces a new, different sound to the conventional classical pieces.”
