About the event:
The Magic of the Piano — DUO IMMERSIO – Recital for piano duet
Mujie Yan & David Anastasiou
Strovolos Municipal Theatre, Saturday, 20 September 2025 | 19:00
Ledra Music Soloists invites you to a special evening of piano four-hands music with Duo Immersio, the rising Scotland-based ensemble formed by Mujie Yan and David Anastasiou. This concert marks Duo Immersio’s debut performance in Cyprus.
In this concert, Duo Immersio presents a multifaceted programme that showcases the richness and expressive breadth of music for piano four hands. From the turbulent drama of Franz Schubert’s Lebensstürme and the refined sensitivity of Alexander Scriabin’s Rêverie (in an arrangement by A. Winkler), to the playful wit of Emmanuel Chabrier’s Cortège burlesque, the two artists unfold, with finesse and virtuosity, a selection of rarely performed works.
Mozart’s Fantasia in F minor, KV 608, with its intricate contrapuntal textures, and Mussorgsky’s atmospheric Dawn on the Moskva River provide moments of introspection, while Ernő Dohnányi’s graceful Waltz, Op. 3, and Edward MacDowell’s lyrical Three Poems, Op. 20, evoke the elegance and emotional nuance of the Romantic tradition. The programme culminates in Paul Dukas’s brilliant The Sorcerer’s Apprentice — a symphonic poem teeming with imagination, colour, and theatrical flair — bringing this vivid and emotionally charged musical journey to a dazzling close.

Duo Immersio, formed by Mujie Yan and David Anastasiou, is a dynamic piano partnership that combines sensitivity, virtuosity, and a shared artistic vision. Based in Glasgow, the two young artists have already distinguished themselves for their harmonious stage presence and their ability to explore the richness of the repertoire for piano four hands and two pianos. Since their award-winning debut with the Peter Lindsay Miller Piano Duo Prize (2024), they have presented imaginative and historically informed recital programmes featuring symphonic transcriptions and pioneering works, with performances at venues such as the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, Glasgow Cathedral, and Williamwood Parish Church. Their programming reflects a keen musical curiosity, bringing into dialogue composers such as Scriabin, Brahms, Lyapunov, and Glazunov. Beyond their technical excellence, what sets them apart is the quality of their musical communication: performances marked by inner pulse, phrasing clarity, and deep mutual responsiveness. Duo Immersio does not simply function as an ensemble, but as a single musical voice that reimagines the traditional piano duo experience with fresh insight and heartfelt commitment.
