Hanna Holeksa and Anna Liszewska began their joint activity as Bacewicz Piano Duo in 2021. Both pianists combined their common interests in the rich legacy of Polish chamber music for piano for 4 hands and for 2 pianos.

As a result of receiving a creative scholarship from the Minister of Culture and National Heritage, their first joint album 'A travers Pologne' was created. The pianists regularly perform, presenting both recognized and less frequently performed works.
