Rooted by a sibling bond, the Cheng² Duo (pronounced Cheng Squared Duo) transfixes listeners through its impassioned expressivity and contagious joy. The pair have been making music together for nearly their entire lives, officially performing as the Cheng² Duo at their 2011 Carnegie Weill Recital Hall debut. Since then, their artistry has left lasting impressions across the globe. In the 2023/24 season, the duo will appear as guest soloists with the Banatul Philharmonic (Romania), embark on extensive tours in Canada, South Africa, and India, and present recitals in Switzerland, the UK, and US. In the vanguard of creative programming, the duo is equally committed to presenting traditional masterworks, rediscovering neglected repertoire, and championing the music of their time. Since 2013, they have commissioned and arranged 15 new works. Cheng² Duo has released four critically acclaimed albums on Centrediscs and audite, and received two 2024 JUNO nominations for their latest album, Portrait. Raised in Ottawa, Bryan and Silvie are currently based in Berlin and New York City.
