The most dynamic piano duo of this generation.
Greg Anderson and Elizabeth Joy Roe met in 2000 as freshman at the Juilliard School and formed their amazing partnership soon after. They have toured to sold-out houses across the globe and amazed audiences with their musical diversity and intense live performances. Widely known for their daring four-hand piano technique and their genre-busting, boundary-crossing arrangements of classical and popular favorites, from Brahms and Debussy to Michael Jackson and John Lennon, they are sure to delight all who hear them.
Don’t miss this electrifying duo!
“Believe all the hype: Greg Anderson and Elizabeth Joy Roe—more famously called Anderson and Roe—are electric. At Galapagos Art Space in Brooklyn, this piano duo did more than celebrate the launch of their new album; they fashioned an entirely new concert experience.” -Backtrack
“Visionaries and dreamers; they are the risk takers who are pushing the boundaries of the traditional world… They are the types of souls who will ultimately save our creative universe.”-Cascadia Weekly
“Listening to the sweet strains of “Mathilde, Marieke et Madeleine,” based on songs by Jacques Brel and Gérard Joannest, feels like slipping into a smoky Parisian cabaret.” - The Juilliard Journal
“Greg and Liz take an iconoclastic pleasure in smashing through the stereotype of classical music as a tame and harmless anachronism.” -Clavier Companion
”[Piazzolla’s Libertango] was not simply a sensual auditory experience, it was also a visual, precisely choreographed, sizzling dance. The level of passion and heat was stifling.” - San Francisco Classical Voice
“Even the most jaded of concert goers sat forward in their seats and dropped their jaws in amazement as these two just re-wrote the book of the tedious concert recital.” -Herald-Tribune
