Customer questions
Do you have different line-up options?
We most often perform as a string quartet, or a string duo (violin & cello) with repertoire from Baroque to Modern, with any of our upper string players playing and usually with Fiona (our organiser) on cello. We also have a tango string quartet option and Baroque/Classical trio which need specific players from our ensemble to be available.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
Slight differences are usually able to be accommodated - we try to be flexible! Major timing changes, say an hour earlier or an hour later, should be requested no later than six weeks before the event.
How much time do you need to set up?
We're acoustic so 15 minutes is usually enough if the venue has set up chairs & provided adequate lighting & adequate shelter from the elements. Our string duos are occasionally amplified when playing indoors so slightly longer needed to set up.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
We have a varied repertoire to appeal to all the different age groups attending, and we like to be able to react to the vibe of the guests around us. But please do let us know family favourites (also any pieces we should avoid!)
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Absolutely! Self-sufficiency on the instruments we are used to gets the best results!
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
Yes we can. If the piece is unusually challenging, we would charge a £40 fee as nominal recognition for the extra time involved. If the piece would not work effectively for string quartet or duo, we might recommend the original be played instead by the disco or cover band in the evening.
