For two decades O Duo have been performing worldwide, entertaining and educating audiences of all ages. The duo was formed in 2001 by Owen Gunnell and Oliver Cox, whilst studying at the Royal College of Music. Then in 2018 Toby Kearney (another RCM graduate) replaced Oliver, joining Owen to continue the musical journey.

The Duo made their Edinburgh Fringe Festival debut with their show, ‘Bongo Fury’, which they played over 25 times to sell-out crowds and critical acclaim.
Since then, O Duo has gone from strength to strength, commissioning many new works and inspiring countless children (and adults!) around the world with their virtuosic performances, laid-back presentation and passion for both percussion and music in general.

They will bring a wide-ranging programme of pieces by Chopin and Liszt through to Steve Reich, Philip Glass, Peter Maxwell Davies and others.

“Phenomenal artistry… Brimming with style and panache.”
