Long Duo recorded the world premiere of Dana Suesse Concerto for Two Pianos and Orchestra, as well as Vaughan Williams and Harl MacDonald two-piano concerti (Sono Luminus) which received raving reviews from the American Record Guide, Fanfare Magazine and Arts Desk of London. Most recently they performed at the InterHarmony Festival in Piedmont , Italy and Sulzbach-Rosenberg, Germany; and in recitals in Montevideo and Punta del Este in Uruguay.
