Duo Libera- Esther Adam (soprano) and Juan Pablo Esmok Lew (guitar)

Duo Libera was formed in the summer of 2022 by the Israeli-Hungarian opera singer and composer, Esther Adam and the Argentinian guitarist and composer, Juan Pablo Esmok Lew, when they performed together for the first time in Europe. Since then, they have performed in various music festivals, castles and concert halls in Hungary, Italy, Germany, Romania and Luxembourg.

Together as classical musicians, they bring new and refreshing interpretations of well-known beloved songs, they make new and exciting arrangements to famous, beautiful opera arias and they create original music as well, which they present to their public in live concerts and which have been recorded in their six albums, which were published and released by The Orchard (Sony).

They take these very famous opera arias and show them in a much intimate, chamber music version, building bridges between cultures showing that music has no borders. Their aim is to create lyric but rhythmic music, combining dances and different styles from different countries, but still performing them in their own, unique classical interpretation mode.
