Steinway Society – The Bay Area, the non-profit organization dedicated to promoting excellence in piano performance and music education in the Bay Area, presents the dynamic piano duo Anderson & Roe. Known for their adrenalized performances, original compositions, and sensational music videos, Greg Anderson and Elizabeth Joy Roe are revolutionizing the piano duo experience for the 21st century. Described as “Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers transposed from the dance floor to the keyboard,†by The Southampton Press, and “the intense synchronization of genius,†by ThirdCoast Digest, Anderson & Roe aim to make classical music a relevant and powerful force around the world. Their most recent album, When Words Fade (Steinway Label), was released to critical acclaim in 2012 and spent nearly a dozen weeks at the top of the Billboard Classical Charts, while their wildly creative, self-produced music videos have been viewed by millions on YouTube.
At this concert, Anderson & Roe will perform Bach’s Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring from Cantata No. 147, Sonatina from Cantata No. 106, and Contrapunctus XIII from The Art of the Fugue. They will also perform Mozart’s Papageno! based on arias from The Magic Flute, Soave sia il vento! from Cosi fan Tutte, and Ragtime alla Turca after the Rondo alla Turca.
