LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD

With their extraordinary poetic understanding, Güher and Süher Pekinel sisters have always garnered high attention in the classical music scene. Their quest for perfectionism is simply legendary. Through their recitals and concert programs they have been very active in presenting the duo repertoire. Their collaboration with the biggest names of the classical music world has enriched the recording catalogues. The Pekinels are the only duo to play without eye contact, focusing intensely on the depth of their musical breathing.
