Reading the scores

What makes a sibling set work
The test is calling both names across a park. They need to start with different sounds so they do not blur together, be about equally well-known so one does not feel like an afterthought, and share a style so they sound like a pair you picked on purpose. Alejandro with Montgomery or Cecilia does that.
