Surrey String Quartets

Surrey String Quartets

Book a Surrey string quartet from Bands for Hire's plentiful selection and raise the bar of sophistication at your special event. A classical arrangement steeped in tradition, our local string quartets in Surrey comprise some of the most talented musicians around, producing a wonderfully rich blend of sounds guaranteed to heighten the moods of all your guests. Hailing from classical and concert backgrounds, and dressed impeccably to boot, you and your guests will be sonically transported back to an age of grand celebration by our elegant Surrey string ensembles.

Wedding String Quartets in Surrey

An ever-popular choice for wedding processions and wedding receptions, Bands for Hire would also strongly recommend booking a Surrey string quartet for graduations, dinner parties, awards ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate or charity events. The air of charming classiness a Surrey string ensemble is capable of creating is a joyous way to remember your day - and there really is no better way to hear Wagner's Bridal Chorus.

We supply Surrey string quartets in areas such as Banstead, Epsom, Esher, Great Bookham, Guildford, Horsley, Leatherhead, Merstham, Runnymede, Staines, Sunbury, Surrey Heath, Walton on Thames, Weybridge, Woking and many other neighbouring cities and towns.

Despite the classical connotations a string quartet may have, you can nevertheless expect one or two surprises. While you may indeed be treated to a beautiful rendition of Strauss' the Blue Danube, our musicians also enjoy performing the surf rock classic Misirlou, famously used in the opening sequence of Quentin Tarantino's crime thriller Pulp Fiction. Also included in their extensive repertoires are: traditional and folk numbers such as Greensleaves, Londonderry Air and What Shall We Do With the Drunken Sailor; film and musical themes from Andrew Lloyd Weber's Cats and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Disney's Aladdin, and Gerry Anderson's Thunderbirds; and, rock and pop hits penned by the Beatles, the Ramones, the Darkness, Queen and Oasis. Our Surrey string quartets for hire can achieve the same effect performing such numbers as these as they can playing Bach, Mozart and Schubert.

Surrey String Duos and Trios

Typically, you'll find a cello, a viola and two violins to be the perfect components for a string quartet. Even so, if your budget or venue restrictions wouldn't suit an entire quartet, our Surrey string quartets can by prior agreement appear as string duos, string trios or string ensembles. Please contact us with any queries and we can help you organise the exact string music your event needs.

If you're looking for chilled music during the afternoon you might also be interested in our Surrey acoustic bands and our harpists in Surrey.

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.
