The Blue Heron Duo's mission is to collaborate with new composers to create lasting repertoire for this versatile instrumentation. Guitarist Ross Thompson and flutist Natalia Kaminska-Palarczyk formed duo in 2011 and have performed in North America and Asia. The Blue Heron Duo performs a wide range of repertoire, including staple pieces for flute and guitar, but their true passion is collaborating with composers on new music.

The Blue Heron Duo is currently commissioning a program inspired by introspection. Their featured composers’ music and composition process is heavily influenced by solitude and nature. They have already premiered the works in San Francisco, and our working on recording an album of this wonderful new music. Stay Tuned!
