Bent Duo is Bill Solomon, percussion and David Friend, piano.
After working together for years as ensemble players in NYC's new music scene, Solomon and Friend have joined forces to create a new project. Bent Duo will explore the existing percussion and piano duo repertoire, and commission new works that exploit the sonic and performative potential of this pairing.
