THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT US
(...), both artists presented an extraordinary game, full of passion and element. Aleksandra Owczarek extracted alternately hellish and heavenly sounds from the violin, used plastic timbre, and was able to differentiate color and dynamics. There was the non-obviousness of nature and the beauty of nature in this game. At one point I had the impression that the Shepherd was imitating the singing of birds, the rustling of trees or an approaching storm with his violin. She also beautifully used the pizzicato technique, which involves setting the string of a string instrument in motion by plucking it with a finger.
Klaudia Łoboda complemented this image with a beautiful harpsichord accompaniment, but she was also able to show its strange sounds. In her playing, I could hear the sounds of urban reality; sometimes it seemed to me that the harpsichord under her fingers sounded like the sound of breaking glass.
In the artists' presentation, both instruments talked to each other and sang. Both painted, using baroque works, nostalgic and lazy images, certain of spleen, apathy and blues, but also of hope.

The concert events they create are simply a lot of pleasure from listening and the feeling of a wonderful time spent.
