Duo Paganini From Ecuador

Duo Paganini,
Jorge Saase Scaff, violin, and Julio Almeida, guitar
were captivating audiences
Last thursday evening, on 8th nov, I was watching a great music performance by two Ecuador musicians, that are also known as Duo Paganini. They are Jorge Scaff, a violinist, and Julio Almeida, a guitarist.
The performance was held by Ecuador Embassy at Usmar Ismail Hall, Kuningan, Jakarta.

Miss Ecuador also attended the performance
It has been for years I have no longer seen such a music performance. When I had been studying in Yogyakarta, I had been used to getting invitations for  such a music performance from Dutch Embassy / Consulates in Yogyakarta once in a month or in two months. Frankly speaking, I missed watching such a performance and thus that is why I didn't pass the Ecuadorian musicians to perform at Usmar Ismail Hall. And another reason is that it was free...! What you need to do is just register to book the seats! ;)

The performance was entitled "FROM PAGANINI TO THE ANDES" and got started at 7 pm and ended at 9pm. It was divided into two parts.

The first half is:
