THE DUET SONGBOOK

The Duet Songbook An Evening of Enchanting Harmonies by Shehara and Dinushka

- 

Some voices are simply meant to be heard together. I've known Shehara and Dinushka for many years and have had the privilege of watching their journeys as artistes, both individually and together.

Over the years, I've seen them grace countless stages, bringing elegance, discipline, and a genuine love for music to every performance. What makes them truly special is how beautifully their voices complement one another. It's as though their voices were made to meet in harmony.

On the 9th of July 2026, these two remarkable sopranos will take to the stage of the Lionel Wendt Theatre for The Duet Songbook — an evening of semi-classical favourites, Broadway classics, and popular music, all brought to life with the support of a live band.

In a world where music often has to fight for its place, artistes like Shehara and Dinushka continue to remind us why live performance matters. Their commitment to their craft, their passion for music, and their dedication to sharing it with audiences is something truly admirable.

I have no doubt that this will be one of the most memorable concerts of the year. Tickets go on sale from tomorrow, and if you appreciate great music, beautiful storytelling, and voices that blend effortlessly together, this is a concert you won't want to miss.

This week on Buzz with Danu, I catch up with Shehara and Dinushka as we talk about music, friendship, sacrifice, and the journey behind The Duet Songbook.

Shehara: Ahhh! Those dreaded butterflies remind you that you need to get through the concert, one song at a time. You can sing on stage every day, but it can never prepare you enough. But those tummy flutters are good. It keeps you on your toes and never makes you complacent.
