Audrey and Diane Pleynet
“Infinitely fragile, And so strong at the same time, Their passion slips away, To the tips of their fingers, But when their diaphanous hands, Fly over a keyboard, They can move a thousand mountains”
― Lyrics from “Lettre à Audian”, a song by Gérard Puysségur dedicated to Audrey & Diane Pleynet
After playing their first notes on the keyboard with their father, Diane & Audrey Pleynet became pupils of piano teacher André Bader from Barr, in Alsace.
They won the “1ère médaille du degré préparatoire ascendant” in a national competition “Les tournois du royaume de la musique” organized by the French radio.
