Through Terra Voce, cellist Andrew Gabbert and flutist Elizabeth Brightbill seek to explore their interest in musical expression from many different places and times, from early to new music and Celtic to tango, combining their voices to create their own distinct sound. They have delighted audiences with their virtuosity, diverse and innovative programming, and engaging, conversational style of presentation.
In addition to their numerous performances on college campuses, Terra Voce has appeared on the Millennium Stage at the Kennedy Center, in the Christ Chapel Chamber Series at New York City's Riverside Church, and as finalists in the National Flute Association's 2008 Chamber Music Competition in Kansas City. Together with three other flute and cello duos, Terra Voce has formed a commissioning circle devoted to supporting the creation of new works for this unique instrumental combination. They recently premiered this consortium's first commission, Dviraag by Asha Srinivasan.
Terra Voce is on the rosters for the Virginia Commission for the Arts Residency Program and Young Audiences of Virginia, and they are also available for concert series, house concerts, weddings and events. Their debut CD includes a range of musical styles from eighteenth-century Baroque to Brazilian choros and is available at CDBaby.
