If you’ve never heard of Duo Jatekok, now’s your chance to get acquainted with the talented duo who’ve been mesmerising audiences around the world with their brilliant piano work. From their first piano lessons together as children, Adélaïde Panaget and Naïri Badal formed a musical bond that led to a magical exploration of classical and contemporary repertoire of four hands on a single piano.
Prepare to be mesmerised as their nimble fingers dance along the piano keys at No Black Tie for two exclusive nights. Performing their latest album Les Boys, audiences will be nodding their heads and tapping their feet in this musical ode to the eponymous duo of American pianists. The programme for two pianos will also include the talented women performing iconic 20th century pieces written by Trotignon, Brubeck, Poulenc and Ravel.
Duo Jatekok will be performing at No Black Tie for two jazzy nights on the 26th& 27th April. Visit www.noblacktie.com.my for more information.
