"...surpassed all expectations."
In the chamber music recital in the City of Lahr's Monastery cellar the two first class musicians were bestowed with stormy applause.

"...the highest demands."
The audience experienced an impressive concert that satisfied the highest demands.                        Lübecker Nachrichten, 27. 4. 1989

"...brilliance in its ensemble playing..."
There was brilliance in its ensemble playing through the individuality of both musicians.                Stuttgarter Zeitung, 1. 2. 1990

„Crafty Duo infernale....
The PAGANINI DUO gave a thrilling performance, sparkling like fireworks. ...they presented themselves as a highly cultured,  gifted Duo infernal, inspired by a humorous spark.                                                                                                                    Süddeutsche Zeitung 05.12.95

“Witty Conversation  - The  PAGANINI DUO  is exceptional.
Adam Kostecki und Carsten Petermann have a proud place at the very top of the dome of the temple of music
from where they can please they audiences.                                                                                                             Hohenloher Tagblatt 19.03.98

"..masters in their field...”
...Before anything else: the two artists - Adam Kostecki (Violin) und Carsten Petermann (Guitar) are masters in their field. Listening to them is pure joy....The impulsive, daring, rhythmically clear cut play of the violinist, whose melodic line reminds of the Italian belcanto, gives an imaginative picture of the mysterious sorcerer  while Carsten Petermann played his part with equally eloquent musicianship, supremely performed with profound musical insight and the subtlest musical nuances...                                                                                                                                                                                 Die Rheinpfalz 06.10.99                     “Enthousiastic reception for the  brilliant PAGANINI DUO...
Adam Kostecki, a violinist of high class....his noble tone varied from melting sweetness of his pianissimo to the forte of a passionate Brio...Carsten Petermann presented himself as an artist of equal class. He convinced with a clear tone and precise articulation and as        an intuitive accompanist..                                                                                                                                                  Ruhr Nachrichten 30.01 99                     

“A monumental synthesis of the arts…
 the PAGANINI DUO played classical music of highest rank....the attraction of this  instrumental combination becomes obvious            when the two artist play with  such instinctive understanding and accomplished harmony...”           Main-Echo 15.02.2000
