Phillippa Lusty (Soprano)
With her unique style and smooth sounds, Phillippa is a pioneering singer/songwriter in the classical crossover genre. She has performed on the home stage at the Royal Albert Hall and the Birmingham NIA, as well as gained an international reputation having been invited to perform concerts in Italy, Germany and Belgium. Phillippa has appeared on numerous radio stations, and was a finalist in Classic FM's national talent search in 2007. She was also named runner up in the finals for UK Songwriting contest 2010 with her song 'Words Unspoken'.
Having recently graduated with a degree in Music from Royal Holloway, University of London, specialising in Solo Performance and Composition, Phillippa now continues to study voice classically and is working on her first album. Her popularity is growing across all age groups. She combines her pure, clear voice with soaring harmonies and a mix of classical instruments with contemporary sounds. Phillippa is in high demand as a collaborative artist and session musician, both for voice and violin. Despite record label interest she still remains committed to developing her career as an independent artist.

Felicity Turner (Mezzo Soprano)
A choral singer and budding soloist, Felicity also graduated from Royal Holloway, University of London in 2011, with a degree in Music and Drama specialising in Solo Performance.
As a choral singer, Felicity has toured Europe and the USA, appeared on four recordings for Hyperion Records and a number of BBC broadcasts, and performed for the Queen. She is currently a member of Genesis Sixteen, a scheme run jointly by The Sixteen and the Genesis Foundation. Felicity's solo engagements have seen her perform alongside such prominent groups as the London Mozart Players and the English Cornett and Sackbut Ensemble. Her affinity for early and contemporary music have led her to premiere the song cycle, 'A Secret Creativity', by Francis Shaw at the 2010 Windsor Festival Spring Weekend, and make the first recording of Jonathan Dove’s a cappella solo, 'My Love is Mine', for Neil Ferris and the Convivium Singers, released in March 2012 by Naxos.
Alongside choral and solo commitments, Felicity has enjoyed recording and touring the UK singing with jazz quintet ‘Desafinado’ and sings for fun with NYJO.

Phillippa and Felicity, known to friends as Pip and Fizz, join together to form Kessini. Singing only the best and most beautiful vocal duets of many genres, they perform in venues and concerts in London, their native Cornwall and all over the rest of the UK. You might also catch them busking near you as they tour the country's high streets perfecting and promoting their craft before recording their first EP together. Why not book them to perform at your party, wedding, or corporate event and have them all to yourself?
... I hope some of you can get a few videos!
This is the first group in a while that I've been so excited about! I can't wait to hear more from them.
