Swiss flutist Eva Oertle performs throughout Europe as a soloist and chamber musician. She plays with internationally renowned orchestras such as Il Giardino Armonico and Al Ayre Español. She gives recitals in major concert halls such as Salle Gaveau in Paris, the Gewandhaus in Leipzig, and the Musikverein in Vienna. She has performed as a soloist with the Brandenburgisches Streichorchester, the Davos Festival Orchestra, and the Festival Strings Lucerne, and has toured in Germany, Italy, Spain, and South America.

"Undine" and "Lake Reflections", the CDs she released on the Sony Classical label, were warmly praised by the musical press. Eva Oertle studied modern flute at the Musikhochschulen of Freiburg and Basel with Janek Rosset, Felix Renggli, and Peter-Lukas Graf. Her interest in historical performance practice then led her to the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis and then to London with Rachel Brown. Eva Oertle is also a presenter and music editor at Swiss Radio SRF2.

Pianist Vesselin Stanev, originally from Varna (Bulgaria), trained at the Sofia Music Academy, then with Dmitri Bashkirov at the Moscow Tchaikovsky Conservatory, with Alexis Weissenberg, and at the Conservatoire national supérieur de musique de Paris. He received additional coaching from Peter Feuchtwanger in London. He was a laureate of the Moscow Tchaikovsky Competition and the Marguerite Long – Jacques Thibaud Competition. He performs regularly in major European concert halls, such as Wigmore Hall in London, the Berlin Philharmonic, the Gewandhaus in Leipzig, or Salle Gaveau in Paris. He also travels to the Nordic countries, Eastern and Southeastern Europe, Russia, and Japan. He especially cultivates chamber music, for instance with violinist Ekaterina Frolova, flutist Eva Oertle, or cellist Zoltán Despond. He has recorded numerous CDs for RCA, Sony Classical, and the Bulgarian label Gega New.
