• The music takes you on a personal listening journey.
• The press reviews keep giving high praise to ‘Two Duos’ first recording titled 'Sunday Morning', and they continue to point to the ‘level of connection’ between the players' and the amazing musicianship.
• Audiences feel this project. They are amazed by the music they hear, and they love that the musical composition and the improvisation are so invisibly entwined.

In describing duo performance, Randy Klein said, “Both players are always totally exposed. The accompanist has to lay down the harmony, rhythm, fill in the spaces and be ready to solo. When the accompanist turns soloist, the solo instrument becomes the orchestra (one instrument orchestra) playing the inner voices, adding color, rhythm and nuance to back the piano solo.” He added, “Another observation is that when I am playing, I don’t feel like the composer of the music. I am simply interpreting it as any improvising musician would, being in the moment.”
