FAQs about hiring Wedding String Quartets in Southwark

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore

What are the most popular songs for a string quartet?

Classical: The Four Seasons – Antonio Vivaldi Air from Suite in D – Johannes Bach Pop: Paradise – Coldplay Amazing – Bruno Mars Jazz: Summertime – George Gershwin My Funny Valentine – Richard Rodgers

What sort of music will a string quartet play?

String quartets are usually professional ensembles comprised of experienced classical musicians. You can bet they'll know Bach, Brahms, and Beethoven like the back of their hand. Having said that, many string quartets are well-versed in playing covers of pop music, or even jazz. When looking to hire a string quartet, make sure you check their song list - you might be surprised at what you see! If you have a special request, they should be able to arrange it for you too.

I want a string quartet to perform at my wedding/event: which parts of the wedding/event should they play?

In most instances, the string quartet will perform during the following parts of a wedding ceremony: seating of the guests, entrance of the bride, signing of the registry, and the walk-out. They will often play at the drinks reception too. For other events, such as corporate events or birthday parties, a string quartet is the perfect accompaniment to a cocktail/canapes hour, providing a beautiful ambience for the guests as they arrive.

A string quartet is slightly out of my budget - what should I do?

Not to worry! If you still want that magic string quartet sound on a budget, you could hire a string trio. Although slightly quieter, a string trio provide a nicely balanced, smooth sound, and will come at a smaller cost when compared to a quartet.

Recent reviews of our Wedding String Quartets in Southwark

“We were delighted with Stretto Ensembles and they really did a first class job at my wife’s birthday celebration. The music itself was well performed and appropriate, but what really made the difference was how accommodating they were, especially as the space they were allocated was a little limited. Our young granddaughters were fascinated by them and possibly got in their way a bit but they were lovely with them and even played some requests from them. Perhaps a young string quartet in the making. So overall a very positive experience, so I would highly recommend Stretto ensembles!! Thank you so much.”
