ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Spanish-born duo pianists Elena Martin and José Meliton, has been hailed by critics and audiences alike as one of the most compelling talents of their generation. These young pianists have emerged as one of the main references within the realm of Spanish two-piano music, thanks to their "playing in perfect synchronization and with hypnotic poetry ... sharply chiseled refinement, fierce commitment and palpable charisma," said John Salmon with American Music Teachers Magazine.
In a short period of time, the duo has conquered audiences in the United States, Europe and Asia. Both pianists hold the Titulo Superior de Piano from the Real Conservatorio Superior de Musica de Madrid, as well as master's degrees from The University of North Carolina at Greensboro.
