Interwoven Four: Muller and Steigerwalt Piano Duo
April 19, 2026 3:00 pm
Dana Muller and Gary Steigerwalt are celebrating over three decades of performing as duo pianists, creating programs that encompass the historical and stylistic gamut of the piano four-hand genre. As recitalists, they have performed extensively in the United States, South America and Scotland. The duo has recorded four compact discs for the Centaur label. Their recording of four-hand works by early twentieth-century European composers was hailed “an outstanding disc” by Fanfare, and their album of nineteenth-century Romantic compositions by Anton Rubinstein, Josef Rheinberger and Frederick Shepherd Converse was praised for its “panache and conviction” by www.allmusic.com.
