TOP 10 REASONS TO BUY "REIMAGINE"
10) 76 minutes of memorable classical piano music.
9) To compare Greg & Liz's two versions of Danse macabre - their straightforward arrangement and their "remix."
8) To confront a wilderness of emotions, instincts, styles, and stories.
7) The deluxe, digi-pack packaging; the full-color, mountaintop photos; the music; the videos; the bold graphic design.
6) To listen to Greg & Liz tear apart their infamous arrangement of Piazzolla's Libertango; feel the racing heartbeats, the physical friction, and the charged chemistry.
5) To support Greg & Liz.
4) To hear Saint-Saëns' "The Swan" like you've never heard it before. Greg & Liz immerse the melody in pianistic ripples of sound, drifting through a landscape of dreamy timelessness.
3) It makes the perfect gift for any music listener.
2) The bonus DVD; Anderson & Roe's YouTube videos in 30 high-resolution frames per second.
1) "The Sacrificial Dance" from The Rite of Spring. A young virgin sacrifices herself to the Gods of Spring by dancing herself to death; it's hard-core, visceral, and thunderous music that will leave you breathless.

http://www.andersonroe.net | Impression #1 from "STAR WARS FANTASY" composed and performed by the Anderson & Roe Piano Duo
Recorded live in concert at The Juilliard School
In composing our "Star Wars Fantasy: Four Impressions for Two Pianos," we took motives from John Williams' iconic score and constructed an entirely original work. The first impression is based on the "Cantina Theme" heard in "Episode IV: A New Hope" from the Star Wars Films. If you are VERY perceptive, you may notice other themes hidden in the texture of the music as well (the Force Theme, Darth Vadar's theme, Yoda's theme, and various battle music motives).

In composing our "Star Wars Fantasy: Four Impressions for Two Pianos," we took motives from John Williams' iconic score and constructed an entirely original work. The second impression is a very free interpretation of the "Force Theme" heard throughout all six Star Wars films.

Performed live in concert by the Anderson & Roe Piano Duo at The Juilliard School.
In composing our "Star Wars Fantasy: Four Impressions for Two Pianos," we took motives from John Williams' iconic score and constructed a new work. While some impressions depart wildly from the source material, the third impression is an arrangement of the "March of the Ewoks" from the sixth Star Wars film.

http://www.andersonroe.net | "A New Account of the Blue Danube Waltzes," composed and performed by the Anderson & Roe Piano Duo
Camera work: Estelle Choi, Yalin Chi, Greg Anderson, Elizabeth Roe
Read "Making the Video, the Anderson & Roe Way" on our blog (http://www.andersonroe.net/blog.html ), and watch the outtakes in the video response section below!
In composing this work, we sought to emphasize the emotions that hide beneath the surface of the typically restrained Viennese Waltz. Note: the narrative is not a representation of reality. Yes, we're really playing the piano, but no, we didn't actually meet over a lost mitten, and no, we're not actually romantic lovers. :-)
Be sure to watch for:
* The choreography of our hands. We wanted to show the similarity between four hands playing together on a piano and four feet on a dance floor.
Be sure to listen for:
* The musical combining of themes. At times, melodies are layered atop one another, most notably at the climax. Believe it or not, seven melodies from throughout the piece are being played simultaneously (7:49 - 8:10), a real compositional feat!
Both the piece and the video are featured on the Anderson & Roe Piano Duo's debut album, "Reimagine." Greg Anderson & Elizabeth Joy Roe showcase their unique approach to classical music and the piano duo genre in this adrenalized album, featuring breathtaking music, a hard-core performance of Stravinsky's 'Rite of Spring,' and a bonus DVD of music videos.

http:///www.andersonroe.net
Music: the first movement from Ludwig van Beethoven's "Moonlight" Sonata, Op. 27, No. 2. Performed (with actual YouTube commentary) by the Anderson & Roe Piano Duo.
Greg Anderson & Elizabeth Joy Roe dramatize ACTUAL text comments posted on YouTube in response to performances by Horowitz, Rubinstein, Kissin, Kempff, Argerich, and other legendary pianists.
"You say either and I say either, You say neither and I say neither;
Either, either; Neither, neither; Let's call the whole thing off.
"You like potato and I like potahto, You like tomato and I like tomahto;
Potato, potahto; Tomato, tomahto; Let's call the whole thing off."
All performers bring something unique to the table. Is it not possible to lack judgment, postpone criticism, and simply enjoy the wonderful differences in interpretation? Listen for what you love, not what you hate.
