“Nothing is more beautiful than a guitar, except, possibly two.”

- Frederic Chopin

[davefitzgerald]

They must have spent about 30 years practicing and playing guitar to hone it in to such a state of perfection. Decades of discipline and hard work. Marvellous !

[veetguitar]

That mazurka op.17/4! If Chopin would have heard this interpretation…He would immediately have started composing for guitar. The sound of these old guitars is so exquisite, so heart-opening. A unique guitar duo, pure listening pleasure!

[tue-hainguyen]

"Frederic Chopin, to the despair of classical guitarists, never wrote music for their instrument but he did once remark with uncommon acuity that 'there is nothing better than a good guitar, save perhaps two. '"

[nickrobinson]

This performance would have garnered the approval of Frederic Chopin if he were alive today. Thank you very much for such wonderful entertainment. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

[pedrogustavodeandrade]

Listening to them playing Chopin for half an hour brings us peace and fills our soul with calm…

[JacekKado-hb]

Fantastic interpretations of Chopin and Sor. Sor's Fantasia is probably the best I have ever heard. These old guitars sound exceptionally beautiful. But even the most beautiful guitar requires an exceptional performer. You both are exceptional at this point of your career. Thank you Ewo & Darku.

Kupinski Guitar Duo possesses a profound command for the music that perfectly fits to the instrument they play.

Господи! Як це божественно в них виходить!!!

[germanantonov]

Это лучшее, что я видел за последний год на ютубе))) Браво!

Anyone who says music is dead, simply isn't listening. Though these may have been written far before my time, it takes creativity and inspiration to arrange and perform in such a virtuous way. Bravo!

[daisydd]

i listen to a lot of different types of music, when i come back to this alone at night when im most vulnerable the beauty of it brings me into tears

[getulioferreira]

"The best speech on music is silence." Richard Wagner.
Mr. Wagner, can we say that it is extremely wonderful?

[jormalaitala]

The display of LOVE is so evident, music, instruments and players is so wonderful to see.

[vlodeklukasz]

Jak zaczniesz słuchać to musisz do końca, znakomita gra, pięknie brzmiące gitary,
wciągające interpretacje.Najwyższy światowy poziom artyzmu.Wybitni gitarzyści,
Ewa Jabłczyńska i Dariusz Kupiński, brawo.

[samwilde]

Honestly came in expecting the two pieces played simultaneously, each by one of the musicians, I was flummoxed as to how they could have been arranged like this and not sound cacophonous. Beautiful playing in this video - even if they do follow the standard 'sequential' set list 😂

[rineric]

Bravo! Kudos! As always, state of the art music-making. Thank you for doing Sor. He is so underrated. My favorite still, though, is your unbelievably great Ponce performance, with a guest, of "Concierto Del Sur" You covered the entire orchestral score between the three of you and let me see Ponce's relentlessly original writing ideas, which are obscured in the orchestral version. Thank you!

[timothygrayson]

This reminds me of my mother and father who would sing vocal duets together to entertain us as children. Major impact on my development never recovered thank God. 😊❤❤❤ 4:08

Niezbyt często transkrypcje Chopina brzmią dobrze. Państwa bardzo miło słuchać.
