The Dearing Concert Duo — six-time Detroit Music Award-winning voice, flute, and classical guitar — has performed at wedding ceremonies and receptions across Birmingham and Oakland County since 1998. Based fifteen minutes from Birmingham in Farmington Hills.
Wedding music for Birmingham couples
The duo has co-directed music ministry at Birmingham Unitarian Church for over twenty years (Abha since 2001, Steven since 2011), giving them deeper Birmingham wedding experience than virtually any other Detroit-area ensemble. The Townsend Hotel, the Community House, Birmingham Country Club, and the city's many private homes regularly host weddings the duo has performed; preferred-vendor relationships at Meadow Brook Hall and The Henry Ford bring Birmingham couples additional venue options nearby.
The duo is on the preferred-vendor lists at Meadow Brook Hall, The Henry Ford, and other major southeastern Michigan venues. Programs combine classical wedding standards with the duo's documented Iberian and South American specialty — useful for couples who want their ceremony music to be more than a string-quartet box-checking exercise.
