“Anderson and Roe are the very model of complete 21st-century musicians. They fuse classical and pop music into a blend of high artistry and skillful entertainment; they write informative program notes; they talk to the audience from the stage, passing the mic back and forth. That they are crack pianists goes without saying.”
The Washington Post
Known for their adrenalized performances, original compositions, and innovative music videos, Greg Anderson and Elizabeth Joy Roe are revolutionizing the piano duo experience for the 21st century in their vision to make classical music a relevant and powerful force in society. The Billboard chart-topping duo, known as Anderson & Roe, will present a program of riveting variety and virtuosity, featuring music from Mozart to the Beatles, with a special spotlight on Steinway’s Spirio player piano.
