Formed in 2014 by Laura Balboa (violin) and Manuel López Jorge (piano), Quiroga Duo is a young up-and-coming group based in London. Its two members, students from the Royal College of Music and Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, are both soloists with notable performing careers and are prize-winners at several competitions. The duo is named in honour to the great Galician violinist-composer Manuel Quiroga (1892-1961) |
