QUINTET, QUARTET, TRIO AND DUO

Our string ensembles create an air of elegance for any business or social event. With a variety of ensembles including Quintet (5 pieces), Quartet (4 pieces), Trio (3 pieces), and Duo (2 pieces) these first-class unit's most popular format is the Quartet which features the traditional instrumentation of Two Violins, Viola, Cello. Adding Bass gives you the Quintet and you can substitute Flute in place of a Violin. Trio offers Two Violins and Cello or Flute, Violin, and Cello. We also offer Duo's of Two Violins or Violin and Flute.

For the past 20 years these groups have performed all over the Tri-State area as well as worked individually with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, Benedum Opera and Ballet Orchestra, Orchestra Nova, the Mendelssohn Choir Orchestra, Disney On Ice, Pittsburgh Festival Orchestra (which has accompanied the likes of Luciano Pavarotti and Tony Bennett) and more. These groups are by far the most experienced and busiest performing ensembles in the area. No students or amateurs here. Between them they have also performed for over 1,000 weddings.

You will have a great deal of flexibility in selecting music from a range of styles and periods including, Classical, Romantic, Baroque, Popular, and Broadway (see enclosed repertoire list) Plus, special requests are considered on the basis of availablility of ensemble arrangements and consultation with the musicians is an important part of the process. We try to be as "user-friendly" as possible recognizing that although we have done this hundreds of times - you probably haven't.

An excellent video is available to help decide which ensemble will best fit your needs. It shows the Quintet, Quartet, Duo's and Soloists with all of the different instrumentation options. Keep in mind that any of the groups can do just about every instrumentation format you see but we couldn't put every group doing every possible combination on the video. If you haven't seen it - just ask. Let us know if you prefer one particular group but we like to think that all of the groups meet our - and your - highest standards.

An exceptional value for a professional group - pricing varies based on a number of factors but we are always willing to talk about ways that we can work within your budget. A formal pricing proposal based on your individual needs is available upon request and we can package the group with other music for your event.

For Wedding Ceremonies: The standard performance package includes up to 30 minutes of Prelude music, plus the Processional(s), selections during the service (if you need them), Recessional, and a Postlude tune or two as the guests depart. Adding Trumpet to the strings makes for a truly grand Processional and Recessional. Although many people call us because they want avoid using the organ, the group can comfortably work around other musicians you may want or need to include in the service. Check first with your Church/Synagogue or Officiant to get their requirements.
