A rare synergy emerges when the unique lyricism of Channel Classics trumpeter Wim Van Hasselt is combined with the boundless creativity of percussionist Koen Plaetinck. Inspired while recording as joint soloists with the Budapest Festival Orchestra, these former studentcolleagues and soul-mates resolved to form a musical duo. A limitless faith in each other’s musical ability, an unconditional mutual respect, and a friendship of many years join to form an exceptional symbiosis with a single, unequivocal, shared conviction: authenticity, beauty and creativity must be the sole objective. As a counterweight to the sometimes fleeting and trivial professional daily tasks, the project has one all-embracing motivation: a search for depth, and the experience of a creative process that fuses uncompromised music-making, authenticity and renewal. In dialogue with various carefully-selected composers and visual artists, while exploring all the limits of their extensive instrumental inventory, they passionately recount their personal story.
