Great article Norman. I know them both. They are wonderful violinists and lovely individuals. I know Sarah better, as she has performed with my orchestra a number of times. Her last performance with us was Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto, which she masters. I recently ran into them in Paris at the “1er Salon du Violon” where they played a smattering of lovely duets.
Thanks, Lisa. Both are terrific artists and the performance is a must-hear: a riveting insight into relationship dynamics.
Et leur père est Vladimir Nemtanu, concertmaster de l’Orchestre National Bordeaux Aquitaine depuis 1980. Deux super musiciennes et filles extra !
