Anderson & Roe
Called “the most dynamic duo of this generation” (San Francisco Classical Voice) and “rock stars of the classical music world" (Miami Herald), Greg Anderson and Elizabeth Joy Roe work in sync to unearth the essence of each piece they play from their genre-transcending repertoire, testing the boundaries of their instrument. That special alchemy immediately captivates audiences all over the world.
Anderson & Roe have redefined the model of the piano duo through a two-decade-long partnership that has been nothing short of pioneering. Their original compositions—from re-imaginings of the classical canon to arrangements of pop music through a classical lens—reflect their belief that all music has something to say to all people. Their five critically acclaimed albums have spent dozens of weeks atop the Billboard classical charts, and their music videos have racked up millions of views, securing them an Emmy nomination. They have collaborated with Augustin Hadelich, Time For Three, MasterVoices, and the Alvin Ailey Dance Company. As media personalities, they have appeared on MTV, NPR, PBS, and the BBC and have hosted the webcasts of the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, one of the most-watched classical musical events in the world.
Greg Anderson and Elizabeth Joy Roe are Steinway Artists.
