The Duo takes its name from the 'Delphinus' constellation and the accompaning myth that tells of an enchanted dolphin that once saved the life of a musician who sang such a beautiful song that the dolphin rescued him from the pirates who sought to steal his gold and drown him. Instead the musican reached home safely on the dolphin's back, and the gods raised Delphinus to the sky in their gratitude.
Guitarist Scott Arnold and Flutist Jennifer Cluff formed The Delphinus Duo in 2000 to perform recitals of vibrant music to audiences across Vancouver Island. Both are alumnists from The Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto. Jennifer went on to study at The Faculty of Music, University of Toronto under Nora Shulman and Douglas Stewart, while Scott continued composition study and private guitar lessons with Norbert Kraft. Both Jennifer and Scott are music instructors at The Nanaimo Conservatory of Music.
