2 stars brightening and fading in Virgo/Libra 25/04/2020

Last night, 25/04/2020, 19:30ish NZ time 2 stars appeared at the border Virgo/Leo, separation similar to the belt stars in Orion, rapidly brightening and then fading over the course of ca. 2 minutes. They remained stationary throughout. One was yellowish, the other whitish. Before I found my camera it was over. Apparent magnitude similar to Canopus.

Did somebody see this? What could that have been?

PS: i opened the wine afterwards
