On March 22nd and 24th the Friendship Duo will come to play for us.

EVGENY SINAISKI, PIANO AND KIRILL TIMOFEEV, CELLO are Russian born musicians now residing in Germany. Together, they have been entertaining audiences worldwide for over 10 years . Originally it was to be a Trio with the Ukranian violinist, Aleksey Semenenko, a prize-winning soloist who was chosen for the BBC New Generation Artists Scheme.

Unfortunately Aleksey is stranded in Ukrainia and not able to leave the country in time. We wish him all the very best for safe return to Germany, where he lives, very soon. Our thoughts are with him.
