The highly-acclaimed, New York-based ARC DUO (Heather Holden, flute;
Bradley Colten, guitar) will be giving a series of performances and
masterclasses in the Baltimore-D.C. area this November. This concert will feature Songs of Kabir (2005), a work that the Arc Duo commissioned from Baltimore composer Judah Adashi for their Merkin Hall concert last May. Adashi is An die Musik Live!'s Composer-in-Residence.

Hailed as "&electrifying, reflective, and always engaging" by Guitar Review, the Arc Duo (formerly Windstrum Duo) has dazzled audiences with its technical virtuosity, style and enthusiasm. Arc Duo received the Artists International Chamber Music Award in 2003 and performed to a sold-out audience at their Carnegie Hall debut in 2004. Other performance highlights have included appearances at Merkin Concert Hall, Caramoor Music Festival, Trinity Church's Concerts at One series, the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, Lincoln Center's Bruno Walter Auditorium, and the National Flute Convention in Las Vegas.

The 2004/2005 season holds exciting events for Arc Duo. The duo is taking part in the premiere performance of the New York Chamber Music Initiative, and is performing in recital at Merkin Hall as part of Artists International's Distinguished Alumni Series. In addition, Arc Duo was invited back for an encore performance at Caramoor Music Festival's Performer's Showcase, and will tour to Texas and Massachusetts to give concerts and masterclasses.

Arc Duo has worked with some of the leading artists of today, and has received high praise from Ned Rorem, Joan Tower, David Starobin, Linda Chesis, and David Leisner. Dedicated to music of the 20th and 21st centuries, last year the duo launched their "Commissioning Project". In 2004, they gave the world premiere of Duncan Neilsons Romances at Carnegie Hall, which inspired American artist Leroy Neiman to sketch them on stage. Arc Duo is currently collaborating with award-winning composers Judah Adashi and Roland Dyens. The duo is in residence at the Diller-Quaile School of Music in New York City.
