The combination of voice and acoustic bass is one which is both challenging and rewarding for musicians and listeners alike. The rich timbres of the these two musical voices are amplified by the open space created in such a unique duet. Harmony is implied through counterpoint, rhythm is indicated by the tug between movement and silence, and dynamics breathe easily in such an empathetic, sensitive, and vulnerable musical setting. At the same time, the power of melody is readily evident, and listeners are rewarded with a musical experience that leaves them fully engaged with the moment.
