Duo Mader/Papandreopoulos

Duo Mader/Papandreopoulos, formed by classical saxophonist Andreas Mader and pianist Christos Papandreopoulos was recently described as “a top-duo that works out contemporary compositions in an atmospheric and interpretive way to the smallest nuances.” (Leeuwarder Courant/Dagblad van het Noorden) Following the release of their debut album Lilith & Lulu in Februrary 2019, the Duo received rave reviews not only from the Dutch but also Austrian and Luxembourgian press, as well as the Bavarian Radio (BR-Klassik).

In 2018 Duo M/P was pronounced one of the winners of the Dutch Classical Talent Tour 2019/20. Andreas and Christos distinguish themselves as performers by presenting concept programs and concerts with strong a narrative element. Duo M/P participated in the Oranjewoud and Wonderfeel Festivals and is among the prize-winners at the 1st Birmingham International Piano Chamber Music Festival and won also the “Oorkaanprijs 2018” for their project Lilith & Lulu. Andreas and Christos have received lessons and mentorship from Pierre-Laurent Aimard in Cologne and Arno Bornkamp in Amsterdam.
