The
duo ‘La Belle Époque’, founded in 2019, has mainly specialised in performing works from the turn of the century.
The music from this period is particularly rich and diverse in terms of musical styles; it includes works that can be understood under the term
‘salon music’ as well as the music of George Gershwin, Scott Joplin and many others.
Classical and romantic music is also an integral part of their programmes.
The duo ‘La Belle Epoque’ also frequently performs works by unknown composers.
