IN COMMON
Verederos: Payton MacDonald, Percussion
Jessica Johnson, Flute
Verederos was formed in 1994. The word verederos is a combination of the words "verity," meaning truth, and Eros, the Greek god of passion and desire. Since 1999, the duo has participated in the highly acclaimed New Performing Arts rural residency program. In 1997 Payton and Jessica released their first CD, Verederos: Music for Flute and Percussion, under the Equilibrium label. Recently, the duo won the National Flute Association's Chamber Music Competition, and appeared at the National Convention in Washington D.C. in August of 2002.
As Rob Haskins describes of In Common, Payton and Jessica "turn music-making into something as ordinary, necessary, and pervasive as cooking, or walking, or breathing... They make performance into something that's almost holistic."
