Our string quartet will make your special event in Melbourne more memorable. The members of our string quartet are highly qualified professional musicians, who have performed for over 500 weddings and corporate functions. We also perform regularly for wedding anniversaries, dinner parties, birthday celebrations, house-warmings, house-inspections, funerals and wakes. We’re also regularly booked for recording sessions for feature films and commercial television.
We perform with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, The Melbourne Chamber Orchestra and tour with the Australian Chamber Orchestra. We’ve won major national and international competitions as chamber musicians and soloists, so you can be sure you’re employing and supporting the finest young musicians in Melbourne.
We work closely with each client to ensure they receive a specialised service. We are constantly in touch right up to the date of the event, just to ensure everything runs smoothly. When you hire our string quartet wedding musicians in Melbourne, you never have to worry about whether the music will be good enough or whether our musicians will be professional enough. We always dress formally and arrive prior to the booking time to ensure that we’re set-up and ready to perform on time. We also perform to the end of the booking time and pack-up afterwards. As a string quartet for hire service, our requirements are minimal – 1 armless chair per performer, adequate performance space and light to read our music. If our Melbourne string quartet is to be set-up outside, we require protection from wind, sun and rain.
We have a large collection of string quartet music, ranging from tango, jazz and popular to traditional romantic, baroque and classical repertoire. We also perform special requests at no additional cost. If we don’t have the music, we’ll find it and make an arrangement for string quartet. This is part of the service we provide.
If you are looking for bands for hire Melbourne, then we are it. We perform in the Melbourne CBD and all around Victoria. We travel long distances to perform at client’s weddings and receptions, including to the Yarra Valley and Mt. Dandenong. We’ve also travelled to Mt. Gambier, SA to perform for clients!
