Each client receives a specialised service and communicates directly with our musicians by email and/or phone. We are constantly in touch right up to the date of the function to ensure everything runs smoothly. By employing musicians associated with String Musicians Australia, you are guaranteed an exceptionally high standard of client service and musicianship. Though it is not necessary, if you would like an in-person meeting prior to your function date, this will be charged additionally. Otherwise, you can read hundreds of client reviews and have confidence that you’ll be looked after, even if you don’t meet us prior to the function date.
In terms of repertoire, we have an extensive library with thousands of charts and music to select from. Though we are classically trained, we can perform all genres of music, including modern popular, tango, folk, jazz, baroque, classical and romantic. We can even perform three special requests at no additional cost. If you have special requests, we’ll just need to know a least 30 days prior to your function date, as it will take us time to arrange these songs for string quartet. The average time it takes us to arrange a song for string quartet is six hours.
For all functions where we are performing as background music, you need not select the music. You can leave it to us to perform a variety of music that will suit the ambience.
Since we live in the world’s most livable climate, we understand that many of our clients will want us to perform outdoors. This is not a problem for us, but we do need protection from the elements, as our instruments are extremely valuable. If you’d like us to perform outdoors, please ensure we have adequate protection from wind, sun and rain. A marquee or large umbrella will do the trick but shade from a large tree won’t be adequate if it rains. For performances at night, please ensure that we have enough light to read our music.
You can find all our prices on our website. When you’re ready to book us in, just fill out our online booking form. For those who are budget conscious, we can also perform as a string trio & string duo. However, a string quartet is the best option as it offers the fullest sound and richest harmonies.
Thank you for reading, and we look forward to being a part of your memorable celebration!
