Be inspired by this beautiful The Sound Of Silence duet performed by the talented husband and wife team of Brooklyn Duo. The classical arrangement of this legendary song on piano and cello comes together perfectly!
Simon & Garfunkel originally released The Sound Of Silence in 1964. Since that time, many artists have lent their voices to the tune.

One of the most well-known covers comes from the rock band, Disturbed, in 2015. Recently, a cappella group Pentatonix released their own version of The Sound Of Silence and it skyrocketed in popularity.
Today, we’re hearing an entirely new The Sound Of Silence duet, with a nod to classical music, and it’s absolutely stunning.
“Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence”
Marnie and Patrick Laird are a husband and wife team that has risen in Internet fame for their stunning classical crossovers. Marnie and Patrick, both classically trained musicians, met while attending a Chamber Music Festival in 2006.
