They have given numerous public concerts at the ‘Royal Academy of Music’ such as ‘Goss at 60’, an exploration of Stephen Goss’ works, and in ‘Double Bill: Cabaret’ and ‘Cabaret with the Juno Duo’, where they performed their own arrangements of Cabaret works in an immersive scripted performance in the Round. They are passionate about new music, and frequently compose their own repertoire, alongside performing new commissions such Lillie Harris’ ‘A Modern Woman’. 

Isabella Hulbert

Soprano Isabella Hulbert is passionate about innovating concert programming through combining repertoire old and new with a focus on creating narrative storytelling. She combines classical and musical theatre vocal styles and utilises her training as a violinist, at the heart of her work in ‘The Juno Duo’. They arrange their repertoire to create through-composed theatrical performances, alongside composing their own works. Their innovative style has taken them to many festivals across the UK, including The London Guitar Festival, The Petworth Proms, The IGF Guitar Summit and The Ham Farm Festival, with engagements including a residency at the London Transport Museum, launching The Proms at St Judes 2025, and recording their original arrangements at the VOCES8 Centre. She is passionate about new music, and premiered the soprano solo role in Piers Maxim’s new work; ‘A Holy Heavenly Chime’, and is a soloist in The Royal Academy of Music’s ‘Opera Makers’ 2025, working with composition students on developing new work for the stage. She will perform as Papagena in ‘The Magic Flute’ for Opera Greenwich in June 2025. She premiered Bobbie Jane Gardner’s ‘Self Love’, commissioned for the London Guitar Festival, and premiered Stefano Bellacci’s new work for soprano and guitar in 2025. As a soloist, Isabella performed soprano solos in Haydn's 'Nelson Mass', Mozart's 'Vesperae De Confessore' directed by Piers Maxim, and ‘The Messiah’ directed by Ian Tracey. She performed her debut solo London recital at Regents Hall in 2025, and her writing exploring the creative output of composers for ballet has been published for ‘Voices of British Ballet’.

Maryna Vosmirova

Maryna Vosmirova, a classical guitarist from Sumy, Ukraine, began her formal music education at the Kharkiv National Conservatory under Professor Vladimir Dotzenko. Despite the challenges of the 2022 invasion, she continued her studies at the Royal Academy of Music in London with Professor Michael Lewin.

In July 2022, Maryna performed alongside Lorenzo Micheli at the Sassari Guitar Festival in Sardegna and attended masterclasses with renowned teachers, Francisco Bernier, Giulio Tampalini and Paolo Pegoraro. Her career gained further recognition in 2024 when she and her duo partner Isabella Hulbert reached the final of The New Elizabethan Award.

Beyond performance, Maryna is also making her mark as a composer and arranger, writing new music for the guitar (see player below). Since 2024, she has been exploring digital composition, blending technology with her instrument to create innovative sounds and open new opportunities for the guitar.
