Louis Capart

Christine Maringer-Tries and Hans-Peter Tries – the couple behind Duo Balance – have for many years had a deep friendship with Louis Capart, singer and songwriter from Brittany. Friendship can bring about marvellous things: It can stabilise peace between nations (two of the songs deal with Göttingen and Berlin) and it can add valuable experiences to the life of the individual.
Furthermore in Louis Capart he will meet a remarkable singer. The man shown on the cover is one fine specimen of a Breton: with his expressive, weathered countenance, he looks like someone matured in the traditions of his home country and equally at home in the realm of free thinking. The singer Louis Capart is a philosopher whose themes are life (today’s and that of days gone by), love, the
meaning of it all and the search for it. He would certainly not be French if, instead of becoming melancholic, his songs would not show a certain sense of lightness and grace.
And Duo Balance fits in into this music congenially, singing together with Louis Capart in perfect harmony: in their soloistic parts, as well as performing songs for two or three voices. They are accompanied by some virtuosic instrumentalists creating a relaxed musical collage. This being so because – as Picasso stated – art removes the dust of daily toil from our souls.
This SACD not only in summertime is great to take with you on holiday. And in case your holiday is over, simply go and listen to the album’s great final instrumental track with its ocean sounds – and dream of a holiday in Brittany, in Göttingen or in Berlin …
Other Stockfisch releases with Duo Balance:
Christine Maringer-Tries and Hans-Peter Tries interpret songs and chansons with timelessly beautiful arrangements – full of feeling but never "overloaded".
The name "Duo Balance" also describes their repertoire: Spanish a-capella, English Folksongs, German "Liedermacher" songs and French chansons combine to form a program that is both incredibly diverse and yet harmonious. Their 3rd Stockfisch release Wunderbarer Morgen is a further realization of this concept
