Piscis Duo is founded in 2006 when two young pianists, Carol Ruiz and Lilian Vázquez, intend to deep into the unknow but extensive repertoire for piano "quatremains". This young ensemble offers interesting programs that prove the variety and quality of the music for piano "quatremains" where one has the oportunity of listening the important works from classical and Spanish music.
Piscis Duo receives regular advice from several recognized pedagogues and artists such as Sebastián Colombo, Katia Weekmans and Alan Weiss. They have participated in different chamber music competitions reaching the final round in Arjau Competition 2009 (Barcelona, Spain) and in Les Corts Music Competition 2009 (Barcelona, Spain).
During the last two years they have been active in the Spanish, Belgian and Dutch scene; offering recitals in Casal Espriu (Barcelona), Col.legi de Metges (Barcelona), Auditori Axa (Barcelona), Centre Civic Riera Blanca (Barcelona), Sala Mas i Mas (Barcelona), Maene Pianos (Brussels), Fentener van Vlissingenzaal (Utrecht), Parnassos Cultuurcentrum (Utrecht), Muziek Paleis Studio Zalen (Utrecht) among others.
