This is a new start for us… we changed our professional name from “Peter Allard and Ellen Feldman” to “Peter and Ellen Allard” when we were married on April 20, 1996, merging two families, two careers, and now four recordings into this one. We’ve met many, many people who welcomed us into their families through their children and into their hearts through the music we play. We feel grateful for all of the joyous times shared with each one of you at the concerts and gatherings at which we’ve performed.
These songs represent a sample of the material we perform now. As music is constantly moving so it is movingly constant. You are invited to change and evolve with us as we write the history of the next 80 or so years together.
