About
'An Amadeus Affair', the second release from Anderson & Roe on the Steinway label, celebrates Mozart with a brilliant recording of his Sonata for Two Pianos surrounded by scintillating four-hand arrangements of music from his operas and concertos.
Their first release on the Steinway Label, 'When Words Fade', was released to critical acclaim and spent over a dozen weeks on the Billboard Classical Charts.
Anderson & Roe have toured extensively as recitalists and orchestral soloists across North America, Asia and Europe.

Awards and reviews
May 2014
I was captivated by most of this impressive recording of (mostly) Mozart arrangements...[the Réminiscences de Don Juan is] a test for ensemble precision if ever there was one and [one] which Anderson & Roe pass with flying colours, sensitively paced and ultimately exhilarating.
