Mia Brentano is a Berlin-based composer whose music is somewhere in the no man’s land between jazz, pop, classical and electronic music.
Mia Brentano liked to call her music “Advanced Classic” because two crucial factors linked her with that tradition – her pieces are scored, written out in their entirety, and in order to be interpreted they require two classically trained pianists.
The piano is a unique, almost universal instrument, with which you can entertain yourself alone and also enthral a large audience.
Mia actually wrote her first pieces for piano only – that is for one piano. But she soon felt she was missing something. If she played the melody with her right hand and the bass with her left, she often wanted a third and fourth hand for her elaborate chords, or for someone to perform like a rhythm guitarist in a band. And so one piano turned into two.
