Unexpected and staged performances, in the streets or a corridor, by saxophone duo Miradas Cruzadas (Argentina-France).

Biography

Miradas Cruzadas is a duo of young saxophonists, Andrés Castellani (Argentina) and Olivier Duverger (France), brought together in Strasbourg by the music of today. Two visions, two paths, two different origins crossing with the aim to reveal the richness of the saxophone and the new light today’s composers shine on the instrument.
Considering music as an expression of the culture of a people, a region, a country or a continent, they strive to bring a new perspective to contemporary music, enhanced by their differences and their dynamic personalities. To enable the public to discover contemporary music, this young duo creates a poetic “Crossed Glance” between popular and contemporary music.
