Ivory & Gold duo consists of Anne Barnhart (flute and vocals) and Jeff Barnhart (piano and vocals) and was formed in 2001 to perform at the prestigious annual Jazz Festival in Sun Valley, Idaho. Subsequently, Ivory&Gold® has been invited to appear in hundreds of venues from coast-to-coast, including The Tempe Center for the Arts, The Kerr Cultural Arts Center in Phoenix, AZ, The Tulsa Performing Arts Center, New Hampshire's Wolfboro Friends of Music Concert Series, Music on the Divide in Georgetown, CA and an annual concert at the Reutlinger-Brune Victorian Palace in San Francisco, to name but a few.

Individually, Anne and Jeff could not have come from more disparate musical backgrounds. Anne is a Magna Cum Laude graduate of the Benjamin T. Rome School of Music at the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C. and holds both Bachelor's and Master's degrees in music. Jeff is a highly regarded pianist, vocalist, arranger, bandleader, recording artist, composer, pedagogue and entertainer. He began his professional career at age 14 performing throughout New England at jazz clubs and restaurants, both as a soloist and with ensembles. He earned a double Bachelor's degree in Music and English (Summa Cum Laude) from Connecticut College.
