The Vecchione / Erdahl Duo
Carrie Vecchione, oboe, Rolf Erdahl, double bass
 
Chamber music of a different color that grabs your ear as the ink dries and sends you out the door humming a new tune!
     "A performance of Rolf Erdahl and Carrie Vecchione promises to be a rewarding musical experience...The duo presented an evening worth remembering for our audience.  Both musicians are superb on their instruments and together, they make a delightful and intriguing sound.  The selections they chose to share were most challenging and exciting, indicating their sound musical backgrounds; their stage presence is relaxed, while professional.  
     They are very good to work with, very orderly in their contacts and materials; which adds to the pluses they bring as performers.  I highly recommend them."
-Director, Northern Lakes Arts Association, Ely, MN

      "That short concert at Landmark Center Thursday was thrilling.  To hear newly composed music for your instruments:  what a nice change of pace for that series.  And to think that I almost let the press of work and the chill keep me at my office that day!  I had to leave the concert hall after your portion was complete:  I did not want any other music in my head but yours the rest of the day.  Now, two mornings later, I'm still hearing it.  BRAVO!"
