BALACORDES DUO
Balacordes Duo

Appel APR 1342 (2012)

Wim Baeck, Brussels violin player and maker whose rich-toned style is Scandinavian-influenced, duets in high empathy with Tristan Driessens’ gutty, propulsive Arabic oud playing on strong original tunes that while based on dance categories polska, polka, waltz, mazurka, andro, bourrée or schottische make fine, varied listening music.
