Comprising Hideki Yamaya and John Schneiderman, Hideki's mentor and former professor, the duo specializes in the performance of music from the 18th- and 19th-centuries on plucked stringed instruments, including Baroque lute, Baroque mandolin, mandora, archlute, and 19th-century guitars and mandolins.  To date, the duo has released two recordings: Adam Darr: German Romantic Guitar Duets (Profil) and Beethoven for Two Guitars (Hänssler Classic).
