The Dodici Corde guitar duo was formed in 2008 bringing together the talents of musicians Danielle Saxon Reeves and Mark Willetts.
The duo have a special interest in the repertoire of the early Romantic Guitar, with a contemporary yet historically informed approach.
Exploring some of the rarely performed duet works of composers such as Mauro Giuliani, Fernando Sor, Ferdinando Carulli, Anton Diabelli, Leonhard von Call and Antoine de L’Hoyer, Mark and Danielle are currently in the process of commissioning a pair of period construction guitars from an English luthier.
With over forty five years playing experience between them, they have appeared as soloists and ensemble players in performances all over the UK; including appearances at The Royal Festival Hall at The South Bank; The Bolivar Hall, London; Hagley Music Festival; The CBSO centre in Birmingham; The Royal Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool and the Droitwich Spa Festival.
Mark is a member of the classical guitar section of the Midlands Fretted Orchestra, the award winning ensemble which Danielle founded in 2001.
Both share a passion for education, being accomplished teachers in their own right.
