New Album
Over the past 2 years, classical voice & classical guitar duo Deux Saisons has been working with composers Akshaya Avril Tucker, Pablo Gómez-Estevez, and Christopher Cerrone to bring new works for the pairing to life.
In 2026, they will be releasing their first studio album, interCONNECT, which will feature these new works. This album pre-release is your opportunity to help the duo with the front costs of reserving a studio in Chicago, cover the costs of mixing and mastering, and the final steps in creating the album.
This presale item is for a physical CD of the album, as well as a digital copy.
