About the work:
Hirono's most recent work, Tzigane Tango, is influenced by Argentinian tangos and Brazilian tangos (Choros), as well as a hint of Hungarian Gypsy music. Like the choro, which is a Brazilian form of urban street music, Gypsy music of Eastern Europe shares a similar public encounter. The violin solo starts with an iconic "Gypsy-style" cadenza and soon turns to a melancholic descending passage influenced by the tangos of Astor Piazzolla. The traditional tango rhythm enters with the cello and, while the violin melodies are still in a Gypsy style, the listener might also notice motives from Rock & Roll (a large influence on Hirono). The middle section echo's a more traditional Brazilian Tango: cheerful, happy, and light. The subsequent cello solo, which interrupts with a return of the Gypsy theme, winds its way back and forth between Gypsy and Latin melancholy only to inevitably return to the opening tango statement.
About Duo-B:
Unique in the classical music world due to its dedication to works for violin and cello ensemble, Duo-B is quickly earning praise for their passionate musical commitment, creative style, and original programming. The ensemble began in 2009 with the chance meeting of a Japanese violinist (Hirono) and an American cellist (Philip) in Germany, at the Hochschule für Musik-Freiburg. Their fascination with travel, innovative styles of music-making, and each other soon led them down creative and unexpected paths that later resulted in the forming of Duo-B, while still graduate students at the Eastman School of Music. Early on, a diversion from their classical training has led them to explore music from a variety of genres and cultures, including folk traditions of Europe, Japan, and South America, through which they emphasize the communicative power and remarkable intimacy found in the string duo.
