Slava & Leonard Grigoryan

about

The Grigoryan brothers have been performing professionally as a duo for 8 years (they have been playing together since Leonard was 4 years old). This partnership has taken them around Australia many times. They have also performed in Russia, Austria, Estonia, Japan, Malaysia, Sth Africa the UAE, and had their Wigmore Hall debut in London in 2006. They have released three duo cds with ABC Classics: * Play (2003) * Rodrigo Concertos (2006) * Impressions (2007) As a duo they have worked with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, the Queensland Symphony Orchestra, The Academy of Melbourne and performed at the Melbourne International Festival of the Arts and The Brisbane Festival. Although having performed much of the standard repertoire for two guitars, their passion is to expand the classical guitar repertoire through new arrangements, commissions and collaborations with contemporary composers as well their own compositions. Coming from an eclectic musical background, improvisation has always been an important part of their musical language. This combination of influences sets their performances apart from other classical ensembles attracting a very diverse audience.
