Additional Information
Since their brilliant studies at Juilliard 2 decades ago, virtuosos Greg Anderson and Elizabeth Joy Roe developed unique skills and eclectism through the classical piano duo. Before their coming to Montreal at Salle Pierre-Mercure on April 21st, they give a generous interview to Alain Brunet at PAN M 360. Not only do they excel as soloists on stages the world over, but they have also played a leading role in updating the piano duo with a repertoire that embraces classical music of the highest standard, as well as works by creative pop artists and great singer-songwriters such as Freddy Mercury, Paul Simon, John Lennon, Paul McCartney and Leonard Cohen. Take a look at their Montreal program to see for yourself, before viewing the PAN M 360 interview!
