About
Selected by Artslandia magazine as one of their top 50 favorite artists, pianists Maria Garcia and Momoko Muramatsu have had successful individual careers that have taken them around the world and to festivals like the Aspen, Tanglewood, Bergen and Casals festivals, as well as performing with groups like the Mark Morris Dance Group amongst others. Friends and colleagues since college years at the New England Conservatory, since 2014 they have joined forces to explore the two piano and one piano-four hand repertoire creating the XX Digitus Duo (“Twenty Fingers”). Hailed by the press as “Dynamite”, “Intrepid” and “Impressive” they explore the classical standards but also the vast repertoire of their shared Latin American musical heritage, and are deeply committed to working with composers in creating new works for the medium. Their goal is to create exciting musical events with eclectic repertoire and presentations.
