UNSPOKEN – New release from Orchid Classics this month featuring works for piano duo. Juho Pohjonen and Wu Qian collaborate on works by Westenholz, Mendelssohn, Chaminade and Amy Beach.
A Note from the Performers: Our musical partnership began over a decade ago, a happy collision of paths for which we owe a debt of gratitude to the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. Since that first introduction, the piano duet has held a special place in our artistic lives. It is perhaps the most intimate form of chamber music – two musicians sharing a single instrument, breathing and moving in a shared space. After years of collaboration, we felt a compelling desire to capture this synergy and leave our own mark on this unique genre.
