BLACK AND WHITE DIALOGUES

“Playing with four hands is a unique experience: one has to share the same space, one has to be able to adapt to the fixed, moral and spiritual needs of the other, one can create ‘contrasts’ that then have to be recomposed, and one shares the same love of music… This ensemble allows pianists to share not only the same score, but also the same instrument, a unique aspect in history.”(Carlo Balzaretti).

Angela Gennaro and Pedro Robert met during their conservatory training years and discovered a special artistic connection and common interest in four-hand piano. Just over a year after forming the duo, the musicians have made numerous presentations in Italy and abroad, conveying to the listener the beauty of this interpretive format through the richness and variety of its repertoire.
