Dutch–English violinist Daniel Rowland and Serbian–French cellist Maja Bogdanović join forces in this exceptional musical partnership. Since forming their duo in 2018, they have performed at major festivals all over Europe, in the USA and South America garnering great acclaim for their passionate, tender and adventurous performances, colorful and innovative programming and last but not least, a wonderful sense of complicity and communication. Regular guests on Dutch radio & television, the duo passionately believe in expanding the still all to small repertoire for this rich combination of violin and cello. Their recent CD release for Challenge Records includes world premiere recordings of works by Penderecki, Sollima, Vasks and Nisinman, and was greeting with rapturous reviews, American Record Review calling it "Extraordinary – remarkable and treasurable, entirely beautiful," while leading Dutch daily NRC Handelsblad described the pair as "a magical meeting of cello and violin."
