SOME OF TWO PARTS

Loretta Palmeiro – Soprano Saxophone
Mark Isaacs - Piano

Built on a jazz /classical bedrock and with folkloric elements, Two Parts mimic and play, complement and contradict, create and evolve in real-time composition. Musical qualities of the Iberian Peninsula such as flamenco and fado are also visited. What results can be brash, delicate, passionate or furious. But this is just the beginning…

Devastatingly accomplished pianist and composer Mark Isaacs has been exploring the spirit of “duende”, the dark and soulful current that can run through even the most animated music. In meeting and playing spontaneous inventions with creatively versatile saxophonist Loretta Palmeiro he found a like-minded soul and a spirited duo was born.

Loretta is the consummate saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist. She is an Australian Arts Council recipient, a founding member of the Spyglass Gypsies and director of Alma Orquestra. Loretta plays with the Queensland Symphony Orchestra, Divergence and Sydney Jazz Orchestras, Mara, and Anna Salleh’s Brazil and beyond. Like Isaacs, Loretta's studies in music originated in the classical hemisphere and have been coupled with an explorative passion for improvised music.

Some of Two Parts perform all original compositions by Mark and Loretta.
