Duo Mosca-Goy

Liana Mosca, violin
Pierre Goy, fortepiano

The Duo Mosca-Goy was born from the desire of two international artists (Swiss pianist Pierre Goy and Italian violinist Liana Mosca) to deepen the knowledge of 18th- and 19th-centuries music. They pursue a philological approach with performances on period instruments and a careful study of interpretative practices.

Timbral virtuosity, complementary sensitivity and crystalline interpretative quality are the characteristics that critics have attributed to the Duo Mosca-Goy.

Pierre Goy and Liana Mosca recorded Luigi Boccherini's ‘6 Sonatas for Harpsichord and Violin’ as a duo for the Milanese label Stradivarius. The album received enthusiastic reviews and was appointed “album of the month” (November 2017) by Amadeus magazine. In 2023, they recorded Armand-Louis Couperin's 'Sonates en pieces de clavecin avec accompagnement de violon', which received many positive reviews.

A double CD with music by Ignace Ladurner (1766-1839) will be released soon. This is a recording project resulting from research by musicologist Hervé Audéon on the evolution of the Sonata for fortepiano and violin in late 18th century Paris.

The Mosca-Goy duo also collaborated with Stefano Barneschi, Ernest Braucher and Paolo Beschi on the recording of Fréderic Chopin's ‘Œuvres concertantes’ (Lyrinx 2015).
