Bedfordshire String Quartets

Bedfordshire String Quartets

Your esteemed guests deserve the very best of everything, and we at Bands for Hire would recommend booking one of our astonishingly talented Bedfordshire string quartets to handle the musical side of your event. Each instrumentalist is a classically trained virtuoso, and many of them have performed at such venues as the Tower of London and St James Palace and worked with Annie Lennox of Eurhythmics fame, and Brit winner Emeli Sande. Hiring a Bedfordshire string quartet at a highly competitive rate will make your dream of an event bursting with style and class a reality.

Hire a Wedding String Quartet in Bedfordshire

Famed for their processional music, such as Pachelbel's Canon in D and Wagner's Bridal Chorus, our sting quartets in Bedfordshire are always a popular choice for weddings. A garden party, graduation, awards ceremony, corporate or charity event, private dinner function or drinks reception would also be a suitable scene for a Bedfordshire string quartet to set.

The range of music our string quartets in Bedfordshire have mastered is remarkable; the mesmerising melodies of Debussy's Claire de Lune can often segue seamlessly into the far more upbeat Cliff Richard and the Shadows' Summer Holiday, or vice versa. Amid the Chopin, Vivaldi and Beethoven, you'll hear instrumental versions of popular songs by Michael Jackson, the Police, McFly, U2 and Muse, and a whole host of jazz standards, like Cole Porter's You're the Top and Anything Goes from his titular musical, and Henry Mancini and Johnny Mercer's Moon River, most famously sung by Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's. Other pieces our Bedfordshire string quartets have selected from the world of film and television include the theme from Dad's Army, Blackadder, Disney's the Lion King, and various Andrew Lloyd Webber productions such as Cats! And the Phantom of the Opera. Our Bedfordshire sting quartets are also well-versed in traditional folk, celtic, Bollywood and Jewish wedding music, so if you're after a more specific genre of music, please let us know.

Bedfordshire String Trios and Duos

Your typical Bedfordshire string quartet will comprise two violinists, a violist and a cellist, which, when combined, produce the familiarly rich blend of pitches and tones you'd expect. If, however, your budget or venue requirements don't match this arrangement, our musicians can also appear as a string duo, a string trio or a string ensemble.

Bands for Hire covers most of the county, including Ampthill, Arlesey, Aspley Guise, Battlesden, Beadlow, Bedford, Beeston, Biggleswade, Dunstable, Flitwick, Kempston, Leighton Buzzard, Linslade, Luton and Shefford. Please feel free to contact us with any queries you may have regarding a Bedfordshire string quartet.

Bands For Hire Reviews
★★★★★

The Bands For Hire service was very prompt and efficient. I specifically chose Olympia Ensemble as I loved their modern, fresh sound and the wide range of music that they offered. Some quartets are 'stuffy' and old fashioned - not Olympia Ensemble! Everything was perfect from start to finish - they gave us a huge range of music, from classical, jazz and pop, there was something for everyone.
