about
Violinists Marie Schreer and John Garner formed ‘Mainly Two’ in 2013 with a view to expanding the repertoire for two violins and bringing greater attention to an often neglected medium. After commissioning new works from some of the top composers of the moment, Mainly Two gave their début show in two parts at the Victoria & Albert Museum, London. Further performances soon followed in the ZHD Gallery, headquarters of the celebrated late architect Zaha Hadid, and in Italy on a four-date tour of Puglia. They have since appeared at new music events organised by Nonclassical, Listenpony, Bastard Assignments and From the Soundhouse, and have performed live at venues including Handel & Hendrix, Science Museum London (live on ResonanceFM), The National Portrait Gallery, The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, LSO St. Luke's, and Watermill Jazz Club. Their two-part début album Poetry / Synergy was independently released in November 2014 and re-released digitally on Turquoise Coconut in May 2016. Marie Schreer is a UK-based violinist from Southwest Germany. She started learning the violin aged three with Ute Frenzel at the Diapason Music Academy, later studying in London with Berent Korfker, Daniel Rowland, Krzysztof Smietana, Yuri Zhislin (viola) and David Dolan (classical improvisation), and graduated from the Royal College of Music and Guildhall School of Music and Drama, both with distinction, and a Concert Recital Diploma. Over the past few years, Marie has worked with a diverse ran
