A Dynamic Duo: Elinor Armer & Lois Brandwynne

"Armer… a kind of musical fabulist, spinning fantasies about actual and mythical beings with humor, affection, and a sense of wonder. Her musical style is distinctly modern, but freely and authentically so, projecting her own individual voice." —San Francisco Classical Voice
“[Lois Brandwynne] A four-star musician with blazing technique, uncanny agility, musical intelligence, and sensitivity.” - San Francisco Chronicle
