Marianne and Maureen’s playing is characterized by a subtle and refined touch, yet it also contains great power and expressiveness. Thanks to their attention to detail and dedication to the music, this duo consistently surprises and moves the audience.
This concert is part of their “Fantasy Concert Tour’, through which they share their love for classical music with a wide audience.

Quote in Dutch:
'De jonge pianisten Marianne en Maureen vormen een uitmuntend piano duo met buitengewone kwaliteiten in samenspel en muzikale expressie. In Franz Schubert’s grote Fantasie in f belichten ze de muzikaal architectonische structuur door gelaagdheid in klank en intens gepassioneerd spel. Ze hebben een heldere klank en een natuurlijk gevoel voor dynamiek en overkoepelende muzikale lijnen. Ze maken de muziek herkenbaar in emoties en innerlijke kracht door hun authenthieke en integere manier van spelen.’ ~ Wibi Soerjadi
Quote in English:
'Young pianists Marianne and Maureen form an outstanding piano duo with extraordinary qualities in ensemble playing and musical expression. In Franz Schubert's great Fantasy in f, they illuminate the musical architectural structure through layered sound and intensely passionate playing. They have a clear sound and a natural sense of dynamics and overarching musical lines. They make the music recognizable in emotions and inner strength through their authentic and integer way of playing. ~ Wibi Soerjadi
