Elnio Duo
(Elif Özgür & Antonio Persak)
As well as exploring the flute & guitar duo repertoire from Baroque to Contemporary music, duo’s energy has been directed towards also performing folk music of different countries. Their love and appreciation for Balkan music has taken them on numerous adventures and it has given them the opportunity to shape and develop their style as a flute & guitar duo. While continuing to perform works by composers such as Bach, Faure, and Piazzola, their aim is to promote Balkan music which in itself gives the audience a colourful diversity of musical styles and cultures.
