Duo Schouten Fie & Gross Katharina

Duo Schouten Fie & Gross Katharina

About this project

The duo, consisting of bass clarinettist Fie Schouten and cellist Katharina Gross, dedicates itself to contemporary, international repertoire, in which both instrumentalists take pleasure in making the low frequencies sound, all possible sounds, melting or contrasting and inserting theatrical aspects. Working as a duo, they invite other musicians to collaborate, so far percussionist Agostinho Sequiera and soprano Keren Motseri. They premiered compositions by Seung-Won Oh, Jan van de Putte, Rozalie Hirs, Tolga Tüzün (TR) a new version of a trio by Boudewijn Tarenskeen, and in the near future they have premieres scheduled by Peter Jakober (A), Füsun Koksal (TR). Besides performing in the Netherlands the duo went on tour in Austria (2022), in Turkey (2023) and in the near future they can be heard in Portugal and Germany. In 2024 they are planning to record a CD with repertoire written for the duo.
