The Duo, in short

We were born musically as a duo in 2015, returning from a trip to Paris. Our love for poetry and music found an ideal meeting point in the Art Song: not only the German Lied, but also the mélodie française, as well as the Italian repertoire between the 19th and 20th centuries, which deserves to be rediscovered and enhanced.
Our concert programs and our recordings come from this passionate work of research and interpretation: as a duo we released the album “Gian Francesco Malipiero: complete songs for soprano and piano” (Brilliant Classics, 2021), that enjoyed success with critics, while an other one dedicated to Pizzetti is now being published; in 2023, on the anniversary of the composer’s death, Alfredo Blessano edited the first Italian translation of Francis Poulenc’s Journal de mes mélodies (In Transito).
Award winners in numerous international competitions, we perform in Italy and abroad and, as teachers, we try to communicate the passion for our musical work to our students...
