The album called "Drop" features 10 new songs with Polish, Czech and French lyrics. The beautiful acoustic space and atmosphere of the renaissance chateau contributed to the origin of an exceptional album.
Both of these two energetic violoncellists come from Northern Moravia, where they met while studying at the Ostrava Conservatory. Andrea (born in 1972) was at that time featured in the band BOO and in the international music-dance formation Rale, while Dorota (born in 1975) was playing with the Brno-based alternative band Lippany. In their music and texts, they get inspired by the poetry of the night and by the dreams, which they consider as extractions from the sub-conscious. "It is because what happens to us during the night is totally different and sometimes even truer than what we perceive in the day," says Andrea. Just like dreams, their music is able to gently caress and soothe, but also to hurt with its brutal urgency. Their texts are written in Polish, which, as they both agree, flows through their veins. Dorota's mother is Polish and the great-great-great-grandmother of Andrea was a Polish countess. Moreover, "the Polish language is far more fit for singing because it has softer consonants and vowels than the Czech language. I think that in that language my voice even has another coloration" says Dorota. Their own musical style is so original that it escapes simple classifications.
