High Low Duo
High Low Duo take the twangy electric guitar sounds of the fifties and sixties to some unexpected places. Guitarists Cameron Greider and Jack Petruzzelli play original surf and western swing instrumentals, inspired by Chet Atkins and Les Paul, but they also venture into classical music. Their forthcoming debut CD, featuring Ravel's Mother Goose Suite and Bartok's Violin Duos, makes a good case for the electric guitar as a classical instrument, capable of the range of expression and colors needed to bring these pieces to life.
