Duo Kiasma

Matinée | Echter'Classic Festival 2026

When cello and accordion meet, the Baroque comes to life in a strikingly unexpected way.

Nomadic and bold, Duo Kiasma explores an eclectic repertoire in which creativity, modernity, and virtuosity converge. Pierre Fontenelle and Frin Wolter blend the sound worlds of their instruments into a distinctly contemporary interpretation. On the occasion of their 10th anniversary, the duo released their first recording on the Cypres label—recorded at the Trifolion Echternach—in which Baroque music is reimagined through subtle transcriptions and inventive arrangements, ranging from Bach and Villa‑Lobos to hints of rock.

As laureates of prestigious international awards, Duo Kiasma performs regularly in Belgium, France, and Luxembourg, including at major festivals and venues such as the Philharmonie Luxembourg and the Chapelle Musicale Reine Elisabeth.

For this matinée, the duo invites audiences on a radiant and inspiring musical journey where tradition and artistic freedom meet with elegance.
