Maureen van IJzerloo began piano lessons at the age of five and soon
impressed with her musicality and sense of expression. At eleven, she
performed during the Piano Three-Day Festival in the Main Hall of De
Doelen, an experience
that marked the beginning of her musical journey.

Since 2021, Maureen has regularly attended masterclasses with Wibi
Soerjadi and participated in his Summer Course at Villa Peckedam, where
she performed Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 12 together with him. In
October 2025, she graduated from Codarts University of the Arts in
Rotterdam, where she studied under Nino Gvetadze.
Together with Marianne Hansen, she forms a piano duo that has performed
since they were twelve years old. Their performances are marked by a
refined and sensitive touch, combined with strength, expressivity, and
remarkable attention to detail. The duo has appeared in prominent
venues, including the Jurriaanse Hall of De Doelen, and at classical
music festivals such as the Festival d'Anniviers in Switzerland. In
2025–2026, Maureen and Marianne are touring Europe with their Fantasy
Tour, performing in England, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Scotland.

In addition to her duo work, Maureen also performs as a solo pianist,
with a repertoire ranging from Mozart, Beethoven, and Chopin to
contemporary piano music and her own compositions. In May 2026, she was
invited as a guest artist at the Gelderlandfabriek, where she performed
her own composition and also played four-hand repertoire with pianist
Wibi Soerjadi, which was a significant artistic highlight. Through her
expressive playing, she seeks to reach a wide audience and share the
power of music, inviting listeners to experience a deeply personal and
moving musical journey.

The program From Mozart to Minimalism reflects this journey through
time: from classical masterpieces to contemporary music and original
compositions, guiding the audience through different musical worlds in a
storytelling concert experience.
