Description
Hello, we are Arjana Vizulis and Ivan Danylets, an experienced musical couple comfortable working in a variety of environments. We met in 2014 working together as musicians on Carnival cruise ships. At that time we were both members of 6 piece bands, performing a wide variety of pop and rock music. Arjana is a singer from New York City, and Ivan is the pianist/keyboardist originally from Ukraine, now also a resident of NYC.
While working together on these ships, we found our own sound with our own duo which we started performing onboard 5 years ago. On our own time we decided to play the
... music that inspired us. Ivan’s background is in Jazz and Arjana’s is in musical theater and together we bring our own influences to our work as a Jazz fusion duet. We don’t play strictly jazz standards; we play a variety of contemporary tunes drawing from our extensive and varied repertoire from our previous band experience, with the common denominator of authentic musicality and sincerity in what we do. We are an acoustic duet; the simplicity and authenticity of a real piano and voice without extra bells and whistles is our ideal sound. We run a larger jazz band called Gingersnap in NYC where we can be found playing private events and clubs in and around the city.
We welcome variety of performance opportunities to our lives, and thrive on challenging, new environments. Music is our passion, and sharing that with others while traveling to new places is what gives us energy and inspiration.
