Nardoo

Peter Biffin - has spent the last twenty years developing a unique expression in sound which is an integration of musical instrument making, composition and performance, expanded scale systems and improvisation. Filtered through a background of traditional styles from East and West, Peter's work has produced two new instruments and a form of music which are entirely his own. Peter has performed and recorded with the David Hykes Trio in Australia, Mexico, France, U.S.A. and Hong Kong, performed as a soloist and made instruments for internationally renowned musicians in several different fields.

Zana has explored new ways of approaching recorder technique and its role in many different mediums, as well as composing new works for the instrument. She is artistic director of Orpheus Music, fostering the growth of the recorder at both regional and national levels.
