Duo Pascual
“Eduardo and Mateia Pascual Obradovic , offer interpretations rich in nuances and resources, rhythms precise and full of energy, from the Renaissance to the exacting music by Turina, Rodrigo, Granados, Falla, Albéniz, they know how to evoke the exuberance of the three cultures”.
“Two virtuoso musicians of great plasticity and interpretive ability capable of evoking the most subtle and least imaginable atmospheres. Their performances, rich in nuances and technical resources, make their varied and suggestive repertoire a lasting memory in the public.”
“The guitar slides between their hands searching in the depths of its soul the light that lights up the naked language of the secret melody of life. It happens when a flight of harmonious sounds rises and brings us closer to the unknown, to that crossroads where all the questions are meeting in the hidden beauty.”
With an extensive experience, the Duo made up of Eduardo and Mateia PASCUAL has performed on numerous stages, both in Spain and abroad, always receiving a great reception from the public and attracting the attention of critics in all their musical events.
