Reviews of String Players available in County Durham

Tracy Good
"Dear Tracy, I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you for your beautiful performance on 24 July – it was absolutely perfect. The moment you walked through the restaurant playing “All of Me” was incredibly moving. From that point on, Sabrina started to realise that something very special was about to happen – and it truly was. Your presence and music created exactly the magic I had imagined. Please also pass on my warmest thanks to Phil for capturing the moment so discreetly and beautifully. Our families were thrilled to see the video – it brought them so much joy. Thank you again for helping make this evening so memorable. We will carry it in our hearts forever. "

Martin and Sabrina - Marriage Proposal
Shane Classical Guitarist
"Shane supported the children with his musician skills and professionalism when he played the Classical Guitar independently and awesomely. Everyone present commented on how beautifully he played the guitar whilst the children sang their songs. Shane was very warm and friendly and I am very happy with his ability and capabilities to play the guitar and interact so professionally with all the children, their families and their catechist on the night of our event. 5 stars for your performance Shane and thank you very much for your calm personality."

The Irish Violinist
"The Irish Violinist was absolutely amazing at our wedding, she played beautifully. We had many guests say how lovely her music was and she did perfectly with the songs we wanted and keeping the relaxed and elegant atmosphere through out the whole time she was there. My now father in law even asked for her contact information she was that lovely 😊 "

Patsy Palmer - Wedding (bride)
Edinburgh Harpist
"Sophie was amazing, her exquisite music lifted our whole event. I had the good fortune to sign up for a harp lesson a few days before also, and so it was wonderful to have made a connection beforehand! Everything about Sophie was absolutely excellent! She has our whole-hearted praise!"

Frequently asked questions

Each event is different but the typical performance time for string players in County Durham is 2 x 45-minute sets within a 2-hour period, with a 30-minute break in between. Some acts are happy to play longer sets or additional sets. Often, breaks can be negotiated but you should be aware that the price may increase if the musicians need to be onsite for a longer period of time.
You should always check whether or not your act is prepared to play outdoors. Weather conditions such as wind, rain, or extreme temperatures can affect the performance and the instruments. If you are planning an outdoor event you should be prepared to offer a flat surface for performers as well as a cover in case of unexpected rain.
Booking string players in County Durham as early as possible increases the chance of securing their availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many acts also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged performances for clients with just a few hours' notice.
Most string players in County Durham are self-contained and bring everything they need to perform. For solo instrumentalists, this typically includes their instrument and any accessories such as a music stand and stool. Some acts may also bring a small amplifier or PA system if needed for the size of the venue. If your event is in a particularly large venue or you have more than 200 guests, it is worth discussing sound requirements with the act when booking. They can advise whether their standard setup will be sufficient or whether additional amplification is needed. Always confirm equipment details in advance so there are no surprises on the day.
The cost of hiring musicians in County Durham can vary significantly depending on the type of act. The average price is currently £450. Budget-level acts may be available for as low as £70, while top-tier acts can command prices as high as £2690.
