Review by Claire Archbold

Gerritsen En Van Dijk's self-titled album is a beautiful blend of classical and contemporary music. The duo, consisting of pianist Robert Gerritsen and violinist Frederik van Dijk, showcase their exceptional musicianship and deep understanding of the music they play.

The album features a variety of pieces, ranging from the baroque era to modern times. Each piece is played with great skill and attention to detail, highlighting the nuances and complexities of the music. The duo's interpretation of Bach's Sonata for Violin and Harpsichord in E Major is particularly noteworthy, with Gerritsen's masterful playing on the piano and Van Dijk's soulful violin.

The album also includes original compositions by Gerritsen and Van Dijk, which demonstrate their creativity and versatility as musicians. "Lament for Solo Violin" is a hauntingly beautiful piece that showcases Van Dijk's ability to convey emotion through his playing.
