Dave Liebman and Richie Beirach, then both in their late 60s, share a musical partnership spanning almost 50 years. They first met during a jam session at Queens College in New York, bonding over their love for jazz greats.

Over the years, they explored ballads in their musical dialogue, leading to the release of their first pure ballads album, 'Balladscapes.'
