Pavel Jany’s classical guitar and compositional backgrounds have no boundaries; his long musical journey encompases many various styles. His influences are enriched by the East European Gypsy music of his native Czechoslovakia and includes the works of many jazz fusion guitarists. Pavel has founded several international jazz projects in the Twin Cities including the well-known ensemble "Ticket to Brazil" and instrumental Gypsy jazz trio "Talking Strings". His performance with Dean Harrington can be seen here.

Dean Harrington has been playing and teaching guitar for more than 25 years. With a Bachelor of Music in Classical Guitar Performance from the University of Minnesota and a first-place winner in the Schubert Club scholarship competition, he still plays classical guitar but these days mostly performs jazz with many Twin City ensembles. His performance with Pavel Janey can be seen here.
