Founded in 2022 by Alice Brandão and Maja Kralj, the Daniyah Guitar Duo emerged from a shared passion for chamber music and creative exploration. The two guitarists met during their master’s studies at the Haute École de Musique de Genève, where they studied under the renowned guitarist Judicaël Perroy. What began as a student collaboration quickly developed into a mature artistic partnership.
Artistic identity and performances
Since its founding, the duo has built a reputation for refined musicianship and imaginative programming. Their performances combine classical elegance with contemporary energy, creating a dialogue between tradition and innovation. They have appeared at major venues and festivals across Europe and abroad, where audiences and critics alike praise their balance, precision and expressive unity.
Collaboration and education
Beyond their concert work, Alice and Maja are dedicated educators who give masterclasses and workshops throughout Europe and Brazil. Their interest in expanding the guitar duo repertoire has led to collaborations with contemporary composers, resulting in premieres of new works and fresh arrangements for two guitars.
Recognition and outlook
The Daniyah Guitar Duo has been honored at international competitions for its artistry and cohesive ensemble playing. In 2024, the duo became part of the Knobloch Strings artist family, marking the beginning of a fruitful collaboration with the string manufacturer.
