The partnership of pianists Wu Qian and Juho Pohjonen began over a decade ago, having originally collaborated as artists in the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. Since that first introduction, both soloists have returned to their duet to explore the piano duo repertoire — a most intimate form of chamber music – two musicians sharing a single instrument, breathing and moving in a shared space. After years of collaboration, their debut album of works for piano four hands features two major duets by Felix Mendelssohn, as well as works by Cécile Chaminade and Amy Beach, and a striking rediscovery: the Sonata in F major by Sophia Maria Westenholz (1759–1838).
