Joined by the internationally renowned pianist Simon Callaghan, together they present an engaging recital of works either written by or inspired by women, and that were written with both piano and orchestral accompaniment in mind – the 1903 Rhapsodie by Claude Debussy sits alongside works by Fernande Decruck, Paule Maurice & François Borne.

«L’histoire d’une cocotte qui est… trop chère… ou trop chérie!» Quatre messieurs de trente, quarante, soixante et quatre-vingts ans se pressent sur le palier d’une cocotte, se mesurent, s’affrontent puis refusent de se battre pour finalement s’associer et s’offrir la demoiselle « au prorata » de leurs moyens et des jours de visite qu’elle consent à répartir.
