The Kelly sisters, Fiona and Jean, have been performing together as a flute and harp duo for over 20 years. They hail from an Irish family of several generations of professional musicians. Originally from Cork, they are now both based in London. Recent duo performances include a concerto tour with the Irish Chamber Orchestra and a performance of Mozart Flute and Harp Concerto with the National Symphony Orchestra. They have performed recitals and concerts throughout the U.K. and abroad, in addition to performances on Classical Music Festivals at Sea for P&O Cruises, hosted by Richard Baker.
