The concept of musicians playing together has been popular since the first time anyone sat down to exchange musical ideas. Duos have had a great deal of success and for the next two programs we present Duo Stew. This week we’ll share music from Robin & Linda Williams, 10 String Symphony, Laurie Hart and Paul Marchand, Magpie, Anne & Pete Sibley and others. A mix of great duos playing a variety of styles … this week on the Sing Out! Radio Magazine.
