At age eleven Giedrė enrolled in M.K.Čiurlionis National School of Arts in Vilnius the most prestigious school in the country for professional musical studies under Vaida Kirvelytė's tuition.

For her Bachelor's degree of piano interpretation Giedrė was accepted to Catalonia College of Music (ESMUC) in Barcelona, Spain. For four years she had the pleasure of studying with an incredible pianist Vladislav Bronevetzky, who was a direct pupil of piano legend Eliso Virsaladze. Giedrė finished her Master's degree at the Royal Conservatory of Music Madrid (RCSMM) in Spain, where under the wing of the magnificent pianist Mariana Gurkova she specialized in Spanish repertoire for piano. She had received positive comments and great advice from amazing musicians K. Moretti, C. Martinez-Mehner, N. Seriogina, K. Lifschitz, H. Sakagami, E. Tawaststjerna and E. Steen-Nökleberg. 

Giedrė M. – González was a participant and winner of some national and international piano competitions, such as  International Rome Piano Competition in Italy (2nd prize) as well as the International Alexander Scriabin Piano Competition in Paris, France (3rd prize) to name a few. She performed solo recitals and chamber music concerts in Lithuania, Spain, Italy, Andorra, United Kingdom, Poland,  Sweden  and  Aguascalientes city theater in Mexico. In the last one she also appeared with the Symphony Orchestra of Aguascalientes, under the direction  of Lanfranco Marcelletti. In the year of 2022 Giedrė received a recognition for nurturing classical music from the parliament member of Lithuanian Republic  V. Targamadzė.

Even though, her piano repertoire is large and diverse (XVIIth - XXIst century), she will always have a soft spot for the classical music patriarchs: J.S. Bach, J. Haydn, F. Schubert. In her interpretations her biggest priority is always to highlight the beauty of music with all of its purity and power. This kind of perspective makes her interpretation full of sentimental lyricism, vivid energy, bright contrasts and most importantly honesty.
