Duo Armaos Rastani (GRE/IRN)

In the interplay of Greek Ptolemaios Armaos and Iranian Syavash Rastani, the sounds of the Persian tompak are united with those of classical guitar – two instruments from very different cultures. The two young 2017 Creole Award winners play their own compositions and interpret well-known pieces by classical composers. Their serious approach to music and virtuoso playing skills are complemented by a dash of humour.
