Deep River String Duo is a dynamic partnership consisting of Mary on cello and Yoshi on guitar. Both are classically trained musicians who each have more than 15 years of experience performing throughout Michigan. They have played for weddings, dinners, parties, brunches, and musicals, as well as other classical performances.
Besides playing cello, Mary is also a classically trained singer, and she carries her love of phrasing and melody into her cello playing.
Yoshi holds a doctorate in music composition and uses his skill to make beautiful pieces and arrangements for Deep River String Duo. Yoshi is also a professional sound engineer and can meet many levels of sound needs.
Thanks for a beautiful and elegant performance, everything was lovely, and communications were excellent.
MY Duo brought the Heat to my wedding. They added so much to an already special day. I lost count on how many guests complimented that they loved MY Duo's sound/music.
I'm sure I put them through some stress due to changes and requests, but MY Duo delivered like the professionals they are. I would Highly recommend them to my family or friends for any events and you should consider MY Duo for yours!
Thank you, MY Duo, for the memories!

MY Duo currently features a set of mostly popular tunes with a repertoire list that can span 3+ hours of background music. Customized song requests can definitely be honored depending on available preparation time and difficulty. MY Duo is available for wedding services such as: seating music, ceremony music (processional, unity candle, recessional, etc.), cocktail hour music, and background dinner music. They can provide quiet and beautiful background music for intimate settings or loud and upbeat background music (with help of their sound system) for larger crowds.
Mary and Yoshi met at Grand Valley State University in Allendale, MI, where they were each studying for a Bachelor of Arts in Music. Yoshi went on to receive his Master of Music Composition from Central Michigan University and then his Doctorate of Musical Arts in Music Composition from Michigan State University. Both Mary and Yoshi have backgrounds in music retail and customer service and can provide unique and custom tailored service to your special event. They have been performing together seriously since 2015 and have offered service for many weddings and other private events. Their most recent public performances together have been: Dogfight (2015) with Peppermint Creek Theatre Co., and Carrie the Musical (2014), See Rock City and Other Destinations (2017), and American Idiot (2018) with MSU Department of Theatre. They are also regularly heard at the University Club of MSU Sunday Brunch. Mary and Yoshi look forward to providing quality music for your special event.
MY Duo needs to be placed near a wall outlet for power, or have an extension cable run. They need to know if stationary chairs (no wheels) without arms are available at the venue or if they need to bring their own.
For outdoor events, a canopy or shade must be provided for extreme heat and sun protection for instruments and electronic gear. An alternative rain location must be designated and used if chance of rain.
