How do I know that the musicians are high quality?

Our musicians are selected for both their professionalism and experience. They have all been classically trained at the UK's top music colleges, typically the Royal College of Music, Royal Academy of Music and Royal Northern College of Music. Many have also attended one of the leading music schools: The Yehudi Menuhin School, Chethams and The Purcell School. They are also selected for their attractiveness on stage - Unlike many classical musicians we tend to smile a lot when performing!

Can you supply a string duo? A string quartet?

Yes! We regularly supply solo violinists/cellists, duos, trios, quartets - in fact anything up to a full string orchestra. Our extensive network of industry contacts also enables us to source top quality harpists.

Do you operate only in the UK?

No. We are based in London but operate internationally, having supplied musicians for high profile events wordwide: anywhere from China and the Middle East to Kazakhstan, Monte Carlo and Bermuda.
