They have commissioned over forty new oboe/bass pieces and recorded seven CDs, effectively creating the oboe/bass duo genre. They also perform educational outreach programs for elementary schools and senior residences. Major recent commissions include a Chamber Music America Classical Commissioning Grant for Valerie Coleman’s American Vein, a Harvard Fromm Foundation Commissioning Grant for Mary Ellen Childs' There is a Humming, and a Barlow Endowment LDS Commissioning grant for Common Ground by Alyssa Morris.
