"Slapin and Solomon are a tried and true musical partnership"
- Journal of the American Viola Society
The Slapin-Solomon Duo has performed throughout the U.S.,
including appearances at the International Viola Congress and as
artists in residence at the Montalvo Arts Center in California. Scott
and Tanya won Best Chamber Music Performance for 2008 at New
Orleans' Tribute to the Classical Arts.
They have commissioned, premiered and recorded new works for
two violas by Gerald Busby, Richard Lane, Patrick Neher, Frank
Proto and David Rimelis, and their debut CD Sketches from the
New World: American Viola Duos in the 21st Century was hailed as
'absolutely brilliant' in Strad Magazine.
As soloists, Scott and Tanya made the first complete recording of
J.S. Bach's Unaccompanied Sonatas, Partitas and Suites (BWV
1001-1013) performed on viola. Entitled Baroque Preludes, Dances
and Fugues, this set encompasses all of Bach's solo music written
for non-keyboard instruments and is available on the Eroica
Classical Recordings label.
