Synergismus is the premier violin-cello duo of Southern Connecticut. Its
members, Millie and Randy Calistri-Yeh, live in Killingworth CT and have been playing together for over 30 years in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
Synergismus offers an intriguing mix of classical and
popular music, many of which are original duet arrangements especially
arranged for our group. We also offer
special themed concerts.
We can provide the perfect accompaniment to your wedding ceremony,
reception, company event, fundraiser, or private party. We are happy to
work with non-profit and community organizations to arrange a concert or
recital.
Our home base includes the Connecticut Shoreline towns from New Haven to New London, and the Central Connecticut region from Hartford to Madison.

Synergismus (sinn-er-GISS-muss, noun, Latin form of synergy):
