Works for Two Violins played by JELLY D'ARANYI and ADILA FACHIRI Adila Fachiri (nee d'Aranyi) and her sister, Jelly, are great-nieces of Joachim, the famous violin player and teacher of a generation ago. These two girls were naturally among his pupils, and Adila, the elder of the two, was one of his favourites ; she often appeared in public with him playing violin duets. This practice of duet playing has had its sequel in the occasional and delightful association of the two- sisters in works tor two violins and orchestra by Bach and others, Adila Fachiri has inherited from her great-uncle not only his favourite Strad violin, but his broad, classical manner of playing it, as well as his veneration for the classics.
