In the organizer's words:

And suddenly time bends... A sugar cube melts on the tongue, honey drips - a brief, intense moment. In the duo Capriccio, pianist Aki Takase and violinist Fabiana Striffler allow opposites to collide: bizarre and delicate, edgy and sweet. They combine playful freedom with radical clarity and precision. Two voices that respect each other, whirl, rub up against each other, fall, float and shine like stars. Thomas Melzer wrote about their debut concert at Jazz in E. in Jazzthetik: "The most touching moment of the festival was the duet between 77-year-old pianist Aki Takase and 37-year-old violinist Fabiana Striffler. It made you wonder how Striffler was able to get the DNA of Stéphane Grappelli and Jean Luc Ponty at the same time and whether you have ever heard Takase so tender, mild..."

Fabiana Striffler is a fellow at Villa Waldberta, the artist-in-residence program of the Cultural Department of the City of Munich, from January to March.
