Duo Arcadie
Franziska Markowitsch and Ulrike Merk have been working together in the Duo Arcadie since 2009.
In addition to the standard repertoire for voice and guitar, their programmes offer the public rare and forgotten works such as Sephardic songs and songs by Fanny Mendelssohn. What is important for both artists is an individual approach to the repertoire through their own arrangements and individual interpretations.
Unusual programs with unusual sounds.
