"Working with Lara and the girls in Hope String Quartet has been an absolute pleasure. Having contacted LIPA to enquire about availability of students, Lara from Hope String Quartet, was very prompt in responding with video footage and a bio. The Telegraph Cruise & Travel Show was a two day event at the Exhibition Centre Liverpool from 10am-5pm on Saturday and 10-4pm on Sunday. As the only string quartet at the event, it was quite demanding on the girls to play across both days with 1-1.5hrs sessions on a tight schedule. Their performances were fantastic and provided our visitors with a relaxing and intimate atmosphere within our Cream Tea Experience. We have received many lovely comments from our visitors since the show, and I would highly recommend Hope String Quartet for any event that requires a classy and sophisticated musical accompaniment.

"Oscar and Dominic did an outstanding job at our wedding. We had quite a few requests, which they learnt quickly and then performed beautifully. We had an outdoors ceremony, which had to be moved inside during the drinks reception due to rain, then relocated again to a different building. Oscar and Dom moved their equipment very quickly to ensure our guests were kept entertained throughout. Both very friendly, professional and punctual, I would happily recommend them to anyone and hire them again if required."

"A blend of hypnotic and intriguing cello played to concert standard with the highly imaginative stellar Latin percussion are the reason why they are booked regularly here"

"I would like to thank you and your musicians for helping to make my daughter’s ‘big day’ such a success. The music was absolutely fabulous and you and your musicians are to be congratulated for the professional way they played and as I said for making the day so memorable. I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone who is looking for a superb string quartet. Once again ‘thank you’."

"The musicians (Devon Strings) at our President’s Celebration were simply wonderful. Their varied repertoire was perfectly suited to the occasion, creating the ideal atmosphere throughout the event. Guests thoroughly enjoyed their performance, with many commenting on how much it added to the celebration. A real highlight of the day!"

"Dear Anne I think it was one of the most enjoyable concerts I can remember. Your orchestra is always good, which is why we book you and let you choose the players. We are certain to ask for your help in the future. I think the choir did especially well because the music was fairly straight forward, we felt confident and performed rather than just sang! Best wishes, Alistair "

"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"

"I hired EM strings to add some background entertainment to our home event, but they quickly became the highlight. Emily and her assembled team were punctual, organised and no request was too big for them: and of course their performance was phenomenal. I would highly recommend them. "

"During Last Minute Sirens's audition for Jonathan Dove’s 60th birthday concert, it was apparent that they were so well prepared and passionate about Dove’s music that I invited them to be the only duo presenting a whole song cycle. Their performance delighted both us in the audience and the composer. I found them charming to work with, respectful of the situation they were preparing for and wholly professional."

"The experience was perfect from start to finish. From the very start, the communication between us and the company was fast and efficient. The standard of musicians was excellent and highly professional. The music they played had such a huge emotional impact that every one of our guests gave them a standing ovation! It doesn't get better than that! So, enormous thanks to the Surrey Strings and their agency! 10 out of 10!!!"
