TRANSCRIPT

♪♪ ♪♪ When they started working together, they discovered a great rapport and Margot realized that she could learn from him and he could learn from her.

So there was a sort of symbiotic thing they had going.

♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ What most inspires me about this couple is the importance of partnership.

I always find that it's muc more important than the solos.

It's the partnership.

That's what makes the story.
