Julia Fischer and Daniel Müller-Schott

Two exciting young German musicians who are already established stars. Julia Fischer was born in Munich in 1983 and is probably as fine a pianist as she is a violinist but she has chosen to favour the latter. She has recorded a number of concertos and solo albums and is in great demand internationally. Her latest album for Decca is title "Poeme."

Daniel Müller-Schott plays only one instrument at a virtuoso level but he is a remarkable talent too. Like Fischer he was born in Munich and they have often played and recorded together. His latest album features concertos by Prokofiev and Britten with Jukka-Pekka Saraste conducting (Orfeo). He has also made several Bach CDs with Canadian pianist Angela Hewitt.

In this video they play the Handel-Halvorsen Passacaglia.
