"Hands are the reflection of the most passionate feeling and always communicate directly with the soul. Four sensitive hands, two united souls, which intertwine arround this project, developed along the lines of a simple idea for the creation of an accoustic folk music in duet form: a sweet, rythmic and magical mixture of different timbres, sounds and feelings, which dance wildly within the same universal heart.
Julio Pereira ( Lisbon, Portugal, 1953 ), the extraordinary creator and player of the "cavaquinho", guitarra braguesa and the bandolin ( and string instruments in general ) and Kepa Junkera ( Bilbao, the Basque Country, 1965 ), considered one of the most brilliant and open composers and players of the Basque diatonic accordion ( "trikitixa" ) came together in July 1995 at these studio sessions to give birth to "Lau eskutara" ( With Four Hands ). Based on improvisation, heavy with creative and rithmic sensitivity ( with scarce use of percurssion instruments ) this work is exhuberantly sweet and passionate.
"Lau eskutara" ( With Four Hands ) is the synthesis of a constant artistic effervescence presented by two great creative souls."
