Pianomania! Pedro Burmester & Mário Laginha

United by a classical musical background, Mário Laginha and Pedro Burmester embarked on different careers, Laginha closer to jazz and Burmester more orientated towards classical repertoire. But the two have long promoted encounters between their different musicalities, a collaboration cemented by friendship and great complicity that was documented in 1994 on the album Duetos. Since then, this unique duo has played many concerts. In 2007, with Bernardo Sassetti, they created the 3Pianos project. Back in the two-piano format, they performed at the Gulbenkian with a programme featuring Mário Laginha's Concerto for two pianos and different readings of Chopin's Ballade No. 1.
