About this project

The duo has toured throughout the United States, including Florida, Kansas, Texas, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Missouri, and Iowa. They have also performed at the International Clarinet Association ClarinetFests® and the National Association of College Wind and Percussion Instructors Conferences.
