Piano duo Vicky Yannoula & George-Emmanuel Lazaridis make their debut appearance on the Resonus Classics label with Carl Czerny’s arrangements for four hands of the two symphonies by Ludwig van Beethoven.

A prolific and trusted arranger of many of Beethoven’s works, Czerny creates fascinating and faithful versions of these popular works that display the impressive virtuosic and orchestral range and capabilities of the instrument.

Yannoula & Lazaridis record two of Beethoven’s best-known works – the first and fifth symphonies.
