Tondo Duo – 7:30pm

The Tondo Duo comprises saxophonist Sophia Elger and guitarist Declan Hickey. Passionate about new music, their repertoire largely consists of works by living composers, including Pat Metheny, Ciarán Farrell, and Greg Caffrey. They recently commissioned a new work, Conundrum by Jack Gionis, and are excited to give its world premiere in February at St John’s Smith Square in their themed programme ‘Classical Rebellion’. Later in the year, the duo will be performing in the Elgar Room at the Royal Albert Hall and at the 1901 Arts Club.

Classical Rebellion is a program filled with electricity, vitality, and spirit. This theme refers to classically trained composers influenced by jazz and folk. We have been developing this theme over the last few months and are looking forward to sharing music by Greg Caffrey, Ciarán Farrell, Jack Gionis, and more!
