"With D'Addario Pro-Arte’ Composite Strings Hard Tension, we find the right balance between a warm sound and a clear projection. Their tuning reliability is also very important for our duo performances. We think they are the best strings, and we highly recommend them."
Spanish guitarist Susana Prieto and Greek guitarist Alexis Muzurakis have become one of the most important guitar duos on the musical scene since their debut as Duo Melis in 1999 at the International Guitar Festival of Volos. Critics and music lovers have praised Duo Melis' performances for their emotional intensity, virtuosity, and ensemble unity.
Duo Melis has performed in such prestigious concert halls as the Berlin Philharmonie, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, the Tchaikovsky Hall in Moscow, the Megaron in Athens, and the Merkin Concert Hall in New York. They are in great demand for concerts and master classes at international guitar festivals and prominent concert series in Europe, America, and Asia.
The duo have won numerous prizes, both together and individually. In 1999, as a duo, they won first prize at the International Guitar Duo Competition of Frechen (Germany). The following year they won the prestigious Guitar Duo Competition of Montelimar (France) as well as the 21st International Guitar Duo Competition "Mauro Giuliani" (Italy). In 2001 they captured the Duo/Ensemble prize at the Chamber Music Competition of Leipzig (Germany) and that same year were the winners at the International Guitar Duo Competition of Paris (France).
In 2003 they recorded their first CD after winning the recording prize Citta di Verona at the International Chamber Music Competition "Gaetano Zinetti" (Italy). In 2013 they released their most recent album, which has been received with great enthusiasm by guitar connoisseurs.
