Duo Mader/Papandreopoulos
Lilith & Lulu
Andreas Mader & Christos Papandreopoulos form an astonishing musical duo: Duo Mader/Papandreopoulos. Their debut-CD, Lilith & Lulu, is a musical narrative about the femme fatale of Alban Berg (Lulu) and her mythical kinsperson Lilith.
This disk brings you a very charismatic and powerful program with composers all involved with one of these characters. Alban Berg, William Bolcom, Nadir Vassena and a commissioned (very exciting) piece by the Dutch composer Sam David Wamper explore the musical limits of the saxophone-/piano combination continuously. This young, Dutch-based duo achieves that with an ever-present amazing tone quality and endless energy.
A thrilling debut.
