Welcome!

During the past twenty years, the Bro-Fowler Duo has performed throughout the United States, including performances in Chicago, Cincinnati, Columbia (SC), Flagstaff, Kansas City, Louisville, Minneapolis, Tucson, and New York City as well as an extended tour of Vietnam. Formed in 1998 for performances of Edison Denisov’s Sonate for alto saxophone and cello, saxophonist Paul Bro and cellist Kurt Fowler have sought to expand the repertoire for this unusual combination of instruments by commissioning new works. Since the fall of 2000, they have been the recipients of six Indiana State University Arts Endowment Grants, resulting in new works for alto saxophone and cello by outstanding composers: Bid Call by Libby Larsen, Walk on Water by Dorothy Chang, Temple Fair by Chinese composer Zhou Long, Lake Reflecting Stars with Moonrise by Augusta Read Thomas, Fantasia Armorial by Alexis Bacon, and most recently Cutting Contest by Frank Felice.
