"Koniger Quartet played at my mother's 90th birthday party. It was wonderful. Their performance was perfect, and the delighted look on my mother's face (she is blind) as they played her favourite tunes said it all. All of the guests thought they were great. I cannot recommend them highly enough. "

"We were introduced to Jean through Sarah-Jane 2 days before our wedding day. Jean was an outstanding Harpist and a pleasure to deal with. She arrived well ahead of the time to ensure she wasn't late and called me in advanced. Highly talented and skilled Harpist and an elegant musician. Happy to recommend her to anyone. I should also thank Sarah-Jane for being so helpful. You'll be in safe hands when dealing wit her and she makes sure she delivers. Everything was done promptly and professionally. Communication was excellent and made us feel at ease."

"Dear Rachel Just a short note to say thank you for yours and the quartets involvement in our wedding last month. It really did add a quality to the day which we loved and our guests thought you guys were super! We also loved the rendition of A Million Dreams so thank you so much for that! Sorry we didn’t get much of a chance to say hello on the day, but a big thank you again. Anna & Gavin"

"Hope String Quartet played at my wedding ceremony and were absolutely fantastic. They were more than happy to learn a few of my favourite songs that weren’t on their playlist and their communication before the event was always helpful, friendly and professional. On the day, they surpassed our expectations – I’ve had so many guests comment on how beautifully they played and one of my favourite moments of my whole wedding is walking down the aisle whilst they played ‘Halo’ by Beyonce. Now I just need another big event so I have an excuse to book them again! Highly, highly recommended"

"Hi Aly, A very big thank you for last night - once again, you played an enormous part in making it a much enjoyed evening and, therefore, a resounding success. We had a mix of parents with some who had been last year who, rather than arriving with trepidation, had come along knowing that there were in for a good time, plus some who had heard it was a good event and were keen to get involved. You certainly did a great job of getting people up dancing, providing extremely clear instructions - I just need to work on my sense of direction! Thanks again, Alison."

"Just got to say how fantastic you guys were at my daughter Sian’s wedding to Luke at Heaton House Farm Wedding Venue. I was the guy standing by you singing along and no doubt spoiling your repertoire but I just couldn’t help it I’m afraid. Great addition to a wedding day and highly recommended."

"Jean was absolutely brilliant on our wedding day and we couldn’t have asked for a more accomplished or versatile musician. Her playing enhanced our reception perfectly and we are so glad we booked her. Thank you so much Jean!"

"We were thrilled with the music! (On the 15th of May 2015 at Oxenfoord Castle). We thought you guys did a fantastic job during the ceremony. We have had a chance to look back at some of the videos and the pieces that we asked you to learn sounded great (2 new arrangements of Irish folk pieces). Unfortunately we missed most of the music during the drinks reception due having photos taken, but we spoke to lots of guests who all said the music was brilliant.  And I believe a few of the Canadian’s were trying to pressure you into staying longer – sorry about that!  Overall we had a great day, and we think our guests did too, and you and your players were a big part of that, so we’d like to thank you for your great effort."

" I want to say a huge thanks to everyone in the orchestra, and particularly to you for being so supportive and sharing your experience and expertise on what has felt like a huge personal journey for me with Gerontius. The most difficult thing about delivering the piece is in managing the demands Elgar makes whilst always being present in the moment and understanding the purpose. It is a truly unique piece of music and I could not have wished for a more wonderful and confident group of players. They brought fierce resilience, skill, kindness and understanding, and a huge range of expression making anything possible. Best of all, it felt like we were all working as one team.  "
