ABOUT THE EVENT
Visiting Artist Carles & Sofia piano duo performs in a recital.
Steinway Artists Carles Lama and Sofia Cabruja are a paragon of artistic talent in the world of classical music and one of world’s most renowned piano duos.
Acclaimed by both the public and critics alike as two musicians with an extraordinary capacity to move an audience to tears, the duo also exhibits a spectacular synchronisation and a very rare mutual understanding.
Carles and Sofia have gained critical acclaim for their brilliant technique, passion, unparalleled quality of sound and infinite elegance. New York critics have called them “the kings of the piano four hands.”
Since 1987 when they began playing together, Carles and Sofia’s international career has led them to appear in famous venues like Carnegie Hall (New York), Palau de la Música Catalana (Barcelona), Sala Verdi (Milano), Glinka Philarmonic Hall (Saint Petersburg), the Teatro Colón (Buenos Aires) or the Teatro Solís (Montevideo), among others.
They regularly perform in world capitals in recital for four hands or with orchestras including London City Chamber Orchestra, Orquestra Simfònica de Sao Paulo, Orchestre de Chambre du Namurois, Tokio Chamber Orchestra, Malaysia Philarmonic Orchestra and Hermitage State Orchestra.
