Duo Concertante
violin & piano duo
Over more than twenty years, Canadian musicians Nancy Dahn (violin) and Timothy Steeves (piano) have built an acclaimed international career as Duo Concertante. Referencing Beethoven’s “Kreutzer” sonata – “in stilo molto concertante” – these two performers, like the inscription suggests, are equal, dynamic voices. After their first concert in 1997, Halifax’s Chronicle Herald called them “two packages of musical dynamite that would credit any stage on the planet.” Since then, they have performed more than 600 performances, produced 12 albums, and recorded over 65 commissioned works.
