Since their first concert together in 2011, the Polish oboist Monika Dawidek and the English guitarist Russell Poyner have captivated audiences with their energy, vitality and interaction on stage, as they charmingly bring together this unusual combination of instruments.

Tucked inbetween the Duo tracks, Poyner performs some of the most pleaseing and lovable South American works for solo classical guitar.
