WHO ARE WE?

We are an experienced quartet of classically trained professional musicians and have played together for the last 15 years. Throughout this time we have built up an extensive and eclectic repertoire, which is evolving all the time not only due to public demand but also to our own personal taste. Therefore we are certain that we will have plenty of choices to suit everyone. However if you wish a special piece that is not mentioned in our repertoire we will endeavour to get hold of it and ultimately perform it at your event.

As a quartet our main activity involves playing for weddings, corporate events such as product launches, party conferences and company meals as well as recitals.
