“Treasures” Review by Martin Hoffmeister MDR Figaro 01.03.2019.
The accomplishments of an internationally highly regarded Piano Duo are rarely extensively documented: The 7 CDs, 4 DVDs and 2 Blu-Rays present innumerable artistic milestones of wide range of accomplishments by Turkish twin sisters Güher and Süher Pekinel. The expressive, variable and technically flawless performing style bribes through diversity of colour shades, a strong sense for arches and form with delicate Rubati and agogic refinements.
Carried by singular Organic and subtle Interplay, the sisters are celebrating their enormous Repertory Scala over 4 decades with selections from Bach to Bernstein, Mozart to Messiaen, Schubert and Gershwin. Exegeses of Olympic format.
