Meet the performers:
Blue Violet Duo "excel at both extremes, from the nuanced and restrained to the incandescent and extravagant" (Stringendo magazine). Formed in 2013, the Chicago based duo was born of a friendship and musical kinship and enjoyed immediate recognition, winning a competition that led to their performance in Carnegie's Weill Hall in New York in February of 2014. Their critically acclaimed 2018 debut album, American Souvenirs, funded in part by a grant from Chicago's DCASE, was selected as WFMT's "New Release of the Day" in October 2018. Their second album, Strike, Strum and Stride, was supported by a grant from the Chicago Musicians Club of Women. They have been invited for repeat performances on the Dame Myra Hess Memorial Concert Series and many other series in the Chicagoland area and beyond. The duo enjoy bringing to light lesser-known, engaging works to surprise and delight audiences everywhere. www.bluevioletduo.com
