Ann Vancoillie( violin), Rui Salgado( cavaquino, mandolin) , Jim Monneau ( double bass)Corda Viva is an international duo bringing together violinist Ann Vancoillie and mandolinist, bassist and cellist Rui Salgado.
Rooted in Brazilian choro, jazz and improvisation, their music unfolds as a vivid dialogue between rhythm, melody and virtuosity, blending classical depth with spontaneous expression.
Corda Viva is conceived primarily as a duo, allowing for an intimate and refined musical dialogue. At the same time, the project remains open to expansion. Depending on the context, venue or artistic proposal, the duo can be presented in an extended formation, with the addition of instruments such as guitar, piano, double bass (Jim Monneau) and drums. This flexibility allows the repertoire to adapt organically to different settings, from chamber-like performances to a full band format.
Ann Vancoillie is first violinist/second soloist at Opera Ballet Vlaanderen and is also active as a soloist, chamber musician and jazz violinist.
She initiates cross-over projects bringing together classical music, jazz, improvisation and other art forms.
She holds a Master of Performing Arts and Pedagogy (2017) and a Bachelor of Jazz Violin (2024).
