Loretta Palmeiro – Soprano Saxophone 	  Mark Isaacs - Piano

Devastatingly accomplished pianist and composer Mark Isaacs has been exploring the spirit of “duende”, the dark and soulful current that can run through even the most animated music. In meeting and playing spontaneous inventions with creatively versatile saxophonist Loretta Palmeiro he found a like-minded soul and a spirited duo was born.

Built on a jazz bedrock and with classical and folkloric elements, Loretta and Mark mimic and play, complement and contradict, create and evolve in real-time composition. Musical qualities of the Iberian Peninsula such as flamenco and fado are also visited. What results can be brash, delicate, passionate or furious. But this is just the beginning…


Loretta is a 2015 Australian Arts Council recipient and a founding member of the Spyglass Gypsies and Sirens Big Band. She is a member of Divergence Jazz Orchestra, Sydney Jazz Orchestra and Petulant Frenzy. Like Isaacs her studies in music originated in the classical hemisphere. Some of Two Parts perform all original compositions by Mark and Loretta.
