For our February show, the Church of Beethoven in Oak Park proudly presents Folias Duo.

The Folias Duo's fifteen year performer/composer collaboration has taken this nomadic husband and wife duo to stages throughout the United States and around the globe including Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Austria, Italy, Portugal, Argentina, and Chile. They have a fearless approach to developing new original compositions for flute and guitar, an expertise for arrangements of Argentine social tango dance music, and a passion for South American folk and world music.

About Folias’s performing and composing, Robert Schulslaper of Fanfare Magazine writes: "Carmen Maret and Andrew Bergeron are facile players…They draw on tango rhythms and melodies sometimes; at other times they write with a scenic sensitivity…mysterious…charming…evocative,” while Todd Gorman of American Record Guide calls Folias “daring in self-written music" and “a nice touch of originality.”
