Premier Philadelphia flute and harp ensemble Duo Harpyn is available for concerts, weddings, receptions, corporate and private parties, performing both classical and popular music.

Duo Harpyn
Harpyn is an ancient French word meaning “player of the harp”. It is also an original spelling for Herbine.

Flutist Lois Herbine and Harpist Sophie Bruno are Duo Harpyn.

They teamed up for the first time together over thirty years ago for a performance of the Mozart flute and harp concerto. Noting how well they worked together, they started performing recitals on a number of local music series for appreciative audiences.

As the duo’s popularity grew through the 1990s and the new millennium, Lois and Sophie were working for a number of Philadelphia contractors, providing entertainment in distinguished Philadelphia venues such as the Kimmel Center, The Union League, The Four Seasons Hotel and The Philadelphia Museum of Art. They have always strived to serve their clientele by tailoring the repertoire to each event and providing their music with the appropriate joy or solemnity. They are equally at home providing an elegant musical addition to a dinner party at a client’s home as they are at playing a gala in the Academy of Music Ballroom.

Duo Harpyn can also be expanded to a trio with the addition of cello.
