The Dearing Concert Duo is a Michigan based classical music duo, specializing in modern works by European and South American composers. They perform virtuosic music for voice and classical guitar AND flute and classical guitar. They are heard throughout the United States and Canada in a range of venues. The Dearings made their European debut during the summer of 2002 with eight concerts including the Cheltenham International Music Festival.
What makes them unique is the broad range of versatility they offer; not just in repertoire but also in programming. They come together with unique and exceptional training and this merging of talents is, in the words of more than one music critic “magical.”
