Short Description
Classic combination of 2 violins, viola and cello able to play our full repertoire of songs from many genres of music.
Act Introduction
City String Ensemble is a stylish string ensemble who add a touch of class to your wedding, drinks reception or corporate event. City String Ensemble are a stunning group of musicians who provide entertainment at all events. We are a string ensemble with a difference - the repertoire list features all your classical favourites, but we are not afraid to try something new! For Weddings: We can entertain your guests for 30 minutes before the ceremony, and then perform music for the procession and recession of the bride and the signing of the register. You can also have us stay for longer to entertain your guests for your indoors or outdoors cocktail hour and beyond! Which Ensemble? The string quartet is the most popular and classic ensemble, possessing a diverse repertoire. A perfectly balanced range of instruments; the quartet can entertain the whole party or subtly blend into the surroundings, adding an extra sparkle to the atmosphere. A string trio is perfect for where space might be limited. A smaller group of just three players, our string trio can provide ample entertainment with much of our quartet repertoire also working perfectly well for trio. If you would prefer something more unique, a string duo may be what you are looking for. A combination of either two violins or a violin and cello presents a more intimate feel and again, frees up more room for your guests to enjoy your event. Our repertoire for string duo covers a wide range of genres, from Classical to Klezmer, Salsa and other styles from around the world.
What to expect
You can expect to hear original, quirky arrangements of songs from musicals and films, swing classics, and modern pop songs. Check out our extensive repertoire - and if you have any other songs you'd like the group to perform for you, get in touch and we'll see what we can do! We perform completely acoustically and are able to entertain your guests indoors or outdoors, provided there is suitable cover. We usually ensemble perform as a quartet but we are also available as a trio or duo, depending on space and budget.
FAQ
Q: How long does setup take? A: We allow 30 minutes to set up but it usually takes less time than this.
Q: What are your space and power requirements? A: A string quartet would need a clear, well-lit space of 3m x 2m. We are an acoustic group so we do not require any power outlets.
Q: Do you take requests? A: We can certainly take requests! Let us know your dream song to hear and we will let you know if we are either able to source the music or make a special arrangement for you.

Customer reviews for String Quartet

Phil

A great group of musicians who made my brother's 50th birthday party truly memorable. We wanted to add some fun and whimsy to the event, but the venue limited us strictly to non-amplified music, 4 musicians, strings only. Normally you might think of a string quartet as a little stuffy or buttoned-up, but their diverse repertoire kept things lively and fun. From the Star Wars theme to Queen to more traditional standards, City String Ensemble kept things upbeat and even a little frivolous, despite being "just" a string quartet. Wouldn't hesitate to hire them again.

If you want to be moved by music hire these musicians. It is clear to see they all are so very passionate about playing. Some of my guests, including myself, were moved to tears but then quickly brought back up to euphoria with an upbeat jazzy tune. They are worth every penny. Treat yourself and the people that are important to you to City String Ensemble. Their take on pop music is refreshing and relevant.

I hired this group to play as a four string quartet at my wedding. They were such a pleasure to work with. Their professionalism and attention to detail made planning and preparing for my wedding much easier and much more fun. They played all the songs we requested and even arranged some song requests for us at a low cost. During the event they played absolutely beautifully. I received so many compliments on their set and people are still talking about their performance. If you're hosting an event, I highly suggest you work with this team of talented and professional musicians.
