Hirono is currently engaged composing a series of works, titled Reimagining Bach. The series uses as its foundation movements from Johann Sebastian Bach’s solo works and are “recomposed” through the application, fusing, and juxtaposition of modern idioms and popular alternative styles.
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.
