In addition to their active solo careers, the Gainesville, Fla., duo regularly presents at universities across North America discussing career development for 21st-century musicians and professional chamber playing.

In addition to the A-State Lecture-Concert Series, additional funding support is provided by the College of Liberal Arts and Communication, the Office of Diversity and Community Engagement, and the Department of Music.
