Anhinga Duo

Chris Dickhaus Alto Saxophone
Jonathan Kuuskoski Piano

from USA

The Anhinga Duo has been described as "...experimental but also highly engaging...[the Duo] traverses musical landscapes that are not braved every day. Taking elements from jazz, classical and a number of other genres, the instruments come together in a way that is technically impressive and emotionally resonant." (The Wilmington Star-News)

Formed in 2009 by friends, colleagues, and UNC-Greensboro Alumni Jonathan Kuuskoski (piano) and Chris Dickhaus (saxophone), the Duo is dedicated to bringing piano and saxophone music to new audiences through innovative and engaging programs. With a repertoire spanning three centuries, including an emphasis on new music, the Duo has performed in concerts throughout the United States, including guest artist recitals at University of North Texas, Cameron University, Southeastern Oklahoma State University, University of North Carolina - Wilmington, and at Frank Lloyd Wright-designed First Unitarian Society (Madison, WI).

This event is a premiere

Wyoming Palette - Jerry (Chiwei) Hui

Composed at the Brush Creek Artist Residency in Saratoga, Wyoming, USA, Wyoming Palette is inspired by the harsh landscape and dramatic color palette of the mountains. Just as in the wilderness one is free to go in any direction, so too can the performers choose their own journey in performing this piece. Each instrumental part, identified with a color, can be combined with more than one other instrumental part. Some parts can even be performed as a solo. By recombining and reordering "colors", the performers can put together many different renditions of Wyoming Palette.
