About

Cellist Rebecca Hartka and grammy-nominated guitarist and composer Jose Lezcano have been praised by American Record Guide for their collaboration: "Hartka and Lezcano play off against each other in a subtle but effective unity of rubato relationships that brings off the sonatas with a personality that catches the ears and holds them" (D. Moore, American Record Guide). The Duo has performed together since 2014 in venues such as the Longy School of Music, the Arts Block, North Hall Arts Festival, and Keene State College. In March 2017 the duo performed and gave master classes in Havana, Cuba through the invitation of UNEAC for the Cello Festival of Havana. Their first recording was released in fall 2017 on Becsta Records. Michael Johnson said of the CD in Facts and Arts that it "displays a high degree of heart and total control" and that he was "captivated by the virtuosity".
