Nancy and Rachelle Garniez: Mother and Daughter

Classical pianist (mother) and singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist (daughter)

About

We have enjoyed music (and playing with sound!) together literally since day one. It is always an adventure to combine classical insights with those of an entirely self-taught musician who plays everything by ear. We've been performing over the past 20 years. One of a kind, it's safe to say.

Music

We mix salon piano pieces with art songs usually of the same era, with improvised duo accompaniments on guitar or accordion, then add in some entirely original works to suit the occasion: We have done turn-of-the-century Brahms/Dvorak/Weill; Debussy/Joplin/Ettinger/Mamlok; Gypsy-inspired: all kinds of possibilities.
