ABOUT
A classical crossover duo, baritone Jean Bernard Cerin and pianist Veena K. Kulkarni, fuse art, folk, world, and religious idioms to celebrate individual communities while also creating spaces for intercultural dialogue. With Indian-Filipino-American and Haitian backgrounds, Veena and Jean Bernard synthesize a broad cultural heritage with their Western classical training to explore music from all around the globe. Together, they bring new sounds to conventional classical music audiences and share the classical music tradition with new audiences.
