Customer questions
Do you have different line-up options?
We have a vast repertoire which is for string quartet, and the line is the same (2 violins, 1 viola and 1 cello)
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
We will do our very best to accommodate any changes to timings.
How much time do you need to set up?
45 minutes. We are very simple and quick to set up.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Absolutely ! We will send you a PDF of our repertoire list with the code that corresponds so that we can transition from piece to piece very quickly !
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
We do!
We need an area covering about 2.5 x 2 metres. It is preferable that we are on a flat surface with adequate light. We need 4 armless chairs in a semicircle. It is also helpful if there is a place where we are able to leave our cases during our performance.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
Yes we absolutely can ! We can either arrange the music ourselves, or buy it online if it is already arranged suitably for string quartet.
