Andrija Pavlović, also known as Andy Pavlov, is a pianist and composer. Blending piano, orchestral, and electronic music, he developed a style uniquely his own that traverses genres and boundaries. Dirk Struik will interview Andy Pavlov during a piano performance.
With seventeen albums, a successful piano duo, LP Duo, and contributions to theatre, film, and television, Andy Pavlov’s oeuvre is remarkably wide-ranging. Yet experimentation has always remained at its core.
Together with LP Duo, he has performed worldwide at venues including Carnegie Hall in New York, the Kennedy Center in Washington, Meguro Persimmon Hall in Tokyo and the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, as well as festivals such as Ars Electronica, Sónar and TodaysArt.
His latest solo piano album, Children, was composed in the house of Dutch composer Simeon ten Holt and recently released by Brilliant Classics.
Since 2015, LP Duo have been leading Quantum Music, a pioneering art-and-science project developed in collaboration with researchers from Oxford, Singapore, Aarhus University and TU Delft. The duo also created the DUALITY Portable Hybrid Piano, an innovative musical instrument exploring the intersection of performance, technology and quantum physics.
In 2022, he was Artist in Residence at Delft University of Technology, where he researched the connections between quantum physics and music.
Stefan Malešević speaks with Pavlov about his rich and diverse body of work.

Including football pub quiz and World Cup watch party (France – Senegal)
From ultra to oligarch: as the World Cup in North America kicks off, we explore the politics of football. How the game is used and abused as a tool of power and prestige, but also functions as a stage for resistance and representation.

Etty Hillesum werd postuum beroemd met de publicatie van haar oorlogsdagboek onder de titel Het verstoorde leven. Hierin doet ze verslag van het leven als Jood onder de nazi-bezetting. Hoe onderdrukt dat leven ook werd, in haar denken bleef Hillesum vrij.
