santur|guitar.duo lets it rip - so wrote the critics in unison. Both Gerhard Klingenstein and the Iranian Kamal Mazlumi seize every opportunity to introduce musically the energy and joyful vitality of different sorts of people from all over the world. Music from Hellas to Dallas, from tango to flamenco, from Persia to Portugal or from Wolfgang Amadeus to Mikis Theodorakis.

santur|guitar.duo is music from everywhere! The combination of the ancient Persian santur with the guitar produces a novel , original sound. The various elements - exotic, classical, jazzy - shine through in this combination of sounds. Santur|guitar.duo is more than just folk-music. The two members of " Santur|guitar.duo" want to make music for everyone, music which is far removed from nationalistic or even ideological overtones. It is their wish "to show the way of unity in variety". The combination of instruments is in itself intriguing. The guitar as classical instrument has an extremely exotic association with the ancient Persian santur. Two completely different cultures encounter each other. 100 strings as opposed to six. 3000 years of history as opposed to a few hundred.
