Duo Histoire is one of Sydney’s finest emerging classical ensembles, always delivering fresh performances in a variety of musical styles. Their broad repertoire ranges from Argentinian tango to Spanish romantic music, from Bossa Nova standards to Classical repertoire. This unique combination of classical guitar and saxophone features award-winning musicians Murilo Tanouye and Nick Russoniello, who began their artistic collaboration during their final honours year at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music.
Since its formation in 2006, Duo Histoire has rapidly attracted the attention of audiences, appearing in music festivals and giving concerts across the country. This year the duo visited Tasmania, performing a series of concerts and live broadcasts on ABC Hobart and Edge Radio. Recently the Duo Histoire completed their debut album with the assistance of Ars Musica Australis and a Buzz Grant from the Federation of Young Australians.
“Both musicians involved are fine players, whose presentation of exquisite repertoire deserves to be heard by the widest audience.”
