Nicole Chao and Beth Chen are a virtuosic pair who have been playing piano duets for six years. They energise classical music through their virtuosic and emotionally thrilling programmes. The “unanimity of feeling” that one reviewer notes arises from their shared musical vision, which is seen in their harmonised physical gestures and heard in their remarkably synched sonic utterances. Their physical and musical gestures are saturated with subtleties of nuance only made possible after years of full-time duo partnership.
