Curls & Pepper

Two lives, one keyboard, eighty-eight keys to fight over. Curls & Pepper is the collision of Cedric Laridon—a conservatory laureate who detoured through tech and R&S Records—and Lina Arzumanyan, who plays like the piano said something about her mother. Together they turn hotel bars and intimate salons into something electric: Piazzolla tangos bleeding into Billie Eilish, Michael Jackson meeting Rachmaninov, all filtered through the friction of four hands and one pulse.

Their four-hands piano repertoire defies easy classification. Call it classical crossover, contemporary classical, or just music that refuses to stay in its lane. From the melancholic sweep of Rachmaninov's Russian romances to the rhythmic fire of Argentine tango, from Joe Hisaishi's cinematic dreamscapes to pop arrangements that make Billie Eilish feel like a nocturne—this is piano four hands reimagined for audiences who want virtuosity without the velvet rope.

Based in Belgium, Curls & Pepper brings their signature sound to intimate concert settings, private events, and hotel entertainment venues across Europe. Whether it's a cultural salon seeking something beyond the expected, or a five-star lobby in need of musical atmosphere with actual teeth, they deliver performances where the groove never breaks and the conversation starts before the last note fades.
