Sorores Duo has been performing together for almost 20 years. They have built a repertoire of works with a particular emphasis on contemporary music, as well as music related to the Holocaust. Programs range from serious to whimsical. Their "signature" piece, The Child in the Hole by William Vollinger, was the springboard for their collaboration.

Having performed throughout the United States, the ensemble features works by Vollinger, Jacob, Seiber, Greaves, Schubert, Laitman, Gordon, Tate, and Roe, to name a few. Although they perform with pianists as a trio, they enjoy the duo experience performing together. During the pandemic they commissioned American composer Gwyneth Walker, who adapted two existing cycles, Emily! and No Ordinary Woman! for soprano, clarinet and piano. They recorded and then premiered the cycles in 2022 at Kansas State University and the International Clarinet Association’s ClarinetFest.  They have performed at Sigma Alpha Iota National Conventions, College Music Society South Central and Great Plaines Regional Conferences, ClarinetFest (Reno 2022), International Congress of Voice Teachers (Vienna 2022) and several colleges and universities. 

The Duo attended undergraduate school together at Truman State University and were sisters in the women’s fraternity Sigma Alpha Iota. The name “sorores” is Latin for “sisters,” from which their professional collaboration was born.
