Formed while students at The Glenn Gould School in 2016, The Ezra Duo (Jacob Clewell, viola/violin Sasha Bult-Ito, piano) has since evolved into the classical music equivalent of a powerhouse pop-punk act. The duo has garnered an impressive list of accomplishments, including recital tours of their Women in Music, Art of the Duo, and Colorfully Contemporary programs in the US and Canada, an appearance in Carnegie Hall, and a performance as guests at a G7 Summit event held at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto. They are top prizewinners of numerous international competitions both individually and together, and are increasingly involved with premiers of new music written specifically for Ezra. The duo also hosts an online recital series called Ezra Electrified! on Twitch, where they present themed classical and crossover programming while performing on electric instruments. Their first album, titled Mystic Journey, releases August 2024 on Akashic Classics and will be distributed by Universal worldwide.

Jacob and Sasha are co-Artistic Directors of the Emerald Coast Chamber Music Festival in Florida, and are frequently involved in outreach efforts, presenting talks and performances for schools, youth programs, and retirement communities wherever they visit. On the road the duo enjoys indulging in such hobbies as visiting local zoos and trying every specialty coffee shop they can find. At home they can be found taking aimlessly long walks around the city, playing video and tabletop games, or doting on their adorable calico cat, Akali, who frequently stars in their social media.
