Helen Dabringhaus, Flute
Negin Habibi, Guitar


"Fun, entertaining and masterful" (Fono Forum):
The aim of "Duo Images" is to create new sound variations on two instruments as rich in tradition as flute and guitar.
With Helen Dabringhaus (flute) and Negin Habibi (classical guitar) two musicians have joined forces, whose artistic attitude is based on liveliness and authenticity, but also on sound poetry.
Their debut CD with works by Anton Diabelli, released by MDG in 2021, is striking proof of this: "It is remarkable... with what brilliance the Duo Images shapes this sparkling sound world." (Klassik heute)
Both artists have technical brilliance, profound craftsmanship and stylistic openness and curiosity in common. Their repertoire not only includes "classics" for this instrumentation, such as Mauro Giuliani or Astor Piazzolla, but also musical rarities, such as Ravi Shankar's "L'aube enchanté" or Toru Takemitsu's "Toward the sea" for Alto Flute and Guitar.
Duo Images invites you onto a voyage through enchanting worlds of sound - always striving for new colourful and pictorial musical language.
