GREG ANDERSON and ELIZABETH JOY ROE are revolutionizing the piano duo experience for the 21st century. Hailed as “the most dynamic duo of this generation” (San Francisco Classical Voice) and “rock stars of the classical music world” (Miami Herald), the Anderson & Roe Piano Duo has appeared on NPR and MTV, recorded Billboard chart-topping albums, toured worldwide as recitalists and orchestral soloists, and released Emmynominated, self-produced music videos viewed by millions.  

Named after legendary violinist Adolf Busch, this young piano trio has emerged as one of the leading ensembles among the new generation, receiving enthusiastic responses from audiences and critics across Europe. Omri Epstein “the group’s marvellously sensitive pianist”, Mathieu van Bellen, whose “silvery gleam darted eloquently”, and Ori Epstein, with whom “you felt in the grip of a warm hug”, have all won prizes in solo international competitions. Brought together by a shared deep passion for chamber music and inspired by Mathieu’s possession of the “ex-Adolf Busch” G.B. Guadagnini violin (Turin, 1783), they have been recognized for their achievements and their playing with “incredible verve”. Since its formation in London in 2012, the trio has developed an extensive performing schedule across Europe’s leading concert halls and festivals. The trio has received guidance from distinguished artists such as Eberhard Feltz and Andras Schiff and are currently mentored by members of the Artemis Quartet at the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel in Brussels, where they are Trio in Residence.  

American contralto Emily Marvosh has been gaining recognition for her “flexible technique and ripe color,” “sterling voice,” and “graceful allure” on the stages of Carnegie Hall, Jordan Hall, Disney Hall, Prague’s Smetana Hall, and Vienna’s Stefansdom. Engagements for the 2015-2016 season include Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, Handel’s Messiah, and Bach’s St. John Passion with the Handel and Haydn Society; John Corigliano’s Three Irish Folk Tunes with the Worcester Chamber Music Society; Stravinsky’s Les Noces with Chorus Pro Musica; Mahler’s Symphony No. 3 with the Tucson Symphony Orchestra; Third Lady in Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte with Boston Baroque; and Handel’s Messiah with Music Worcester and the Rhode Island Philharmonic.

Thanks to its rousing and lively interpretations and individual program concepts, the Signum Quartet has made its mark on the international quartet scene and has established itself as one of the most distinguished ensembles of its generation.
