Sébastien Giniaux and Joris Viquesnel met twenty years ago, and have never stopped playing together since.
A friendship built around music. These two have in common an open mind that allows them to navigate between a wide variety of genres, creating bridges between musical styles that seem, however, very distant. Gypsy jazz, like Django Reinhardt's but also Balkan music, classical or contemporary music. From Ravel to Radiohead, from Nougaro to Chopin and even Romanian gypsy music or the oriental coceks from Macedonia. So many musical styles that have so much in common that they never stop exploring together.
Sébastien and Joris have participated together in many musical projects and recordings. They have shared stages a thousand times in France and abroad.
The "Duo of strings against windmills" that we see in this video is the fruit of these years of exchanges and complicity, of this search for music and freedom that they share like Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, fighting against the windmills of the commercial music industry.
