Full Biography

Sharing a love of ensemble music, Jo and Celine formed the Rose Duo in 2001.

As well as providing the music at many weddings, corporate functions and parties, the Duo has given recitals in London and the rest of England. The duo has worked closely with the composer Pat Livingstone and gave the premier performance of her composition for two cellos 'Shifting Sands'. The Duo also provided the music for the champagne reception at the high profile gay civil ceremony of Gary Cockerill and Philip Turner and were featured in OK magazine.

Between them they have worked with several orchestras and theatrical companies. These include The London Symphony Orchestra, RTE National Symphony Orchestra of Ireland, London Children's Ballet and Opera North. They have also performed and recorded with numerous artists including Billy Ocean, The Divine Comedy,Boy George and The Wedding Present.

They have given performances on cruises of the Mediterranean and The Baltics.


The Rose Duo offers a friendly, personable service, a wide variety of music to suit all tastes, competitive rates and unlike the larger sized string quartet, the Duo fits snugly into most nooks and crannies!

Beautiful intimate venue for a beautiful wedding

5 stars - Rose Duo are Highly Recommended
booked Rose Duo for their Wedding at The Painswick Hotel in Gloucestershire

“Dear Jo and Celine a Huge thank you! You were both amazing and you made our special day extra special. My memory of our wedding will always be filled with your beautiful music.”


They were a real pleasure to have around.

5 stars - Rose Duo are Highly Recommended
booked Rose Duo for their event in Buckinghamshire

“They were a real pleasure to have around and added to the party not only with their beautiful music but with how well they relaxed into the slightly haphazard and silly atmosphere. They coped admirably and graciously with the slightly rustic and cold conditions. And yes, they both looked very elegant!”


You were both amazing.

5 stars - Rose Duo are Highly Recommended
booked Rose Duo for their event

“Thank you for playing at our wedding. You were both amazing and everyone i spoke to last night said how much they enjoyed listening to you. We really appreciated it.”


Very professional and organised.

5 stars - Rose Duo are Highly Recommended
booked Rose Duo for their Wedding at Old Wardour Castle in Wiltshire

“We are truly grateful to Rose Duo for playing such beautiful music at our wedding, we can't fault them at all! We are lucky to have met them and heard how fantastic they are, we would now book with them again in a heartbeat!! Rose Duo arrived in plenty of time. Our booking was for our wedding ceremony and we asked Rose Duo to play in the ceremony room during the vows, and then to relocate to another area of the venue to continue playing during our drinks reception. They must have done this seamlessly as I didn't even notice them moving and setting up again! Very professional and organised, we had a contact email address and phone number in the event of any last minute emergencies, and Rose Duo were happy to discuss requirements prior to wedding day. We were 100% happy and very jealous of their talent! They exceeded our expectations, and all of our wedding guests commented on how their music enhanced the atmosphere. They were absolutely lovely ladies! Very friendly to all...”
