Virtuoso Horn Duo and Friends US Tour

Posted By on September 20, 2009

On October 14th, Kristina and I shall be boarding a flight for New York, where we will meet up with Lauretta Bloomer and Kyle Turner to rehearse the 2-week Virtuoso Horn Duo and Friends U.S. Tour. Although we are repeating some of the repertoire from the last tour that we did in the U.S., we are also adding some new pieces, as well as performing music from the various CDs which we have recently released. Here is a short list itinerary and the repertoire list for this tour. If you are free and in the area, please come to one of our concerts.
