Jennen Ngiau-Keng and Amir Farid in rehearsal

Here are a couple of videos posted on ‘YouTube’ of me playing with the awesome violinist Jennen Ngiau-Keng (Click here for Jennen’s biography), recorded in Kendall NSW while rehearsing during our concert tour in October 2006.

A passionate and fiery rendition of Monti’s Czardas. As you can probably see and hear, we were having a bit of fun with it!

And here is a slightly improvised (!) bash of Saint-Saens’ Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso - unfortunately we decided to abort before we reached the end…doh!
