About Us
The JKL DUO, comprised of Jacopo Lazzaretti and Kerry Lynch, play music straight from the heart, using the Flute and Classical Guitar to speak to listeners all across the world. The duo released their debut album ‘The International Poet’ in 2023 and have been touring it extensively in concert series and festivals within Scottish cities such as Glasgow, Edinburgh, Perth, Dundee, Isle of Skye, being described as ‘Simply stunning’ (Skye Chamber Music). The CD has been broadcast in Scotland, was awarded ‘Album of the Week’ at Celtic Music Radio, and in August 2023 the duo went to Rome to present it on Luigi Picardi’s show L’Arpeggio’ for Vatican Radio. Kate Calder (Edinburgh Music Review) described it as ‘a stimulating and thought-provoking take on the music found by Robert Burns’, and Canadian guitarist Michael Ibsen said ‘To see such a unique, well-executed, and fresh concept for a chamber music album is a rare delight, and the world is all the richer for JKL DUO's cheek in attempting such a project’. In addition to performing concerts, the duo also regularly play at corporate events and functions, such as for Graypaul Glasgow Ferrari ‘Women with Drive: A Night in Italy’ and ‘A Starry Night in Rome’. When not performing, Jacopo and Kerry run their own teaching studio (JKL DUO Studio) in the heart of Glasgow’s West End, delivering 1-1 lessons, group/chamber music classes and providing performance opportunities for their students. Currently, JKL DUO are represented by Classical Musicians Scotland and are Live Music Now Scotland and Sofar Sounds Artists.​
