Vertex Duo, comprised of Jeremy Chan (piano) and Kristin Gornstein (mezzo-soprano), bring the perspective of multiple cultures, backgrounds, and musical aesthetics to their work, sharing a love for freshness and improvisation in classical music. They have performed together in recital at Seiji Ozawa Hall, Caramoor Center for the Arts, and the DiMenna Center. Jeremy and Kristin met performing the works of William Bolcom, and this shared focus on performing the works of living composers has brought them to their current project, a recording of contemporary songs and arias that they have previously premiered, including a newly commissioned set of songs by Pulitzer Prize-nominated composer Alex Weiser. The album was recorded in the Spring of 2022 at Yellow Barn Studios by 12 time Grammy winner Judith Sherman and Jeanne Velonis, to be released early 2023. Their EP Still is available on all streaming platforms.
