PIANO DUET INFORMATION
The Spearfish Duet Club began in 2003, under the leadership of Synva Chrysler and Marianne Bieber. It was a way for intermediate and advanced pianists to maintain their piano skills and at the same time have fun and enjoy each others’ musical talents. Members of the community, as well as BHSU music students and faculty, are involved in the performance and rehearsal activities. The club is actually a loose association of pianists with a passion for four-hand literature. Each pair of partners selects music that is holiday-oriented, or they may choose familiar classical pieces. Dr. Janeen Larsen coordinates and organizes the programs. The performers also present a piano duet program each spring in Meier Recital Hall at BHSU.

Bring your lunch — we’ll have the coffee on.
