“High caliber and courageous repertoire choices”

- Iain Burnside, IVC Theatre in Song 2025 Jury Chairman

“DUO ARDEA impresses with an approach that does not use innovation as mere effect, but rather as an expression of a deeply contemporary artistic identity. The duo assumes multiple roles: as musicians, performers, and catalysts for new works. With their aim to organically intertwine classical and contemporary song, they open up new narrative and sonic spaces.”
