Christie Reside, Principal flutist, Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, and Terence Dawson, Pianist, formed their duo in 2005 after recognizing their shared interest in chamber music and a desire to expand the offerings of the traditional duo recital. Both seasoned solo performers, they lead active performing and teaching careers.

Christie Reside began her career in the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra as second flute at the age of 19. She received her formal training with Timothy Hutchins at McGill University in Montreal, and continued her training with Lise Daoust, Marina Piccinini, and Patrick Gallois at the Banff Centre for the Arts.

Terence Dawson began his formal studies in Eastern Canada with Lynn Johnson, Jamie Syer and Janet Hammock and continued graduate work at The University of British Columbia with Jane Coop. He holds a Doctorate in Piano Performance from UBC where he currently teaches piano, chamber
music and is the school’s undergraduate keyboard coordinator.

Together, their recital appearances highlight a remarkable onstage rapport, and their interpretations of repertoire are delightfully colorful and technically assured.
