"We booked this fabulous string quartet for our wedding on August 11th. They are absolutely brilliant and very professional. Claire was always contactable and my request for “Waltz of the Flowers” to walk down the aisle to, was absolutely no problem for them to do. I highly recommend."

"Thank you all so, so much to our String Quartet for creating the most magical atmosphere on our wedding day. All of our guests were blown away by your exquisite performance and you were a real talking point of the day. The round of applause and the chants for an encore were thoroughly deserved. We could not recommend you highly enough! I just wish I had another occasion coming up so I could hear you all play again soon - you truly are so talented!"

"My dream was to have a small wedding in a beautiful country house with the sound of a string quartet playing in the background. I was lucky enough to find Sarah who helped me make my dream come true. Sarah met me at the wedding venue and we practiced her playing as I walked down the stairs and into the ceremony room to perfection. We stayed in close contact and I was able to choose all the music I wanted, including one piece I had especially written just for me. The quartet played beautifully before and during the ceremony and then during the wedding breakfast. I would recommend them to anyone considering this most special addition to their wedding plans. Fabulous."

"Dear Anne, Thank you very much for your congratulations, we had such a beautiful day. Every guest commented on how they loved listening to your quartet play. They liked the style and arrangement of the music, and we both thought that it was lovely to hear them applaud following particular pieces too. We thought that the music fitted the occasion perfectly and that it made a very special contribution to the day. We really cannot thank you all enough for helping make our wedding day such a perfect occasion. Best, Colin "

"Martin, Natalee, and Laura from Flux Ensemble played as a string trio for our wedding at The Old Mill, Aldermaston, and they were exceptional. Their performance brought a beautiful and romantic atmosphere to both our ceremony and reception, blending everything from Paramore to Chopin to Howl’s Moving Castle seamlessly. Communication was excellent throughout, and we were able to choose all our tracks from their list along with one special request that they arranged beautifully. Highly recommended."

"We booked Anne’s string trio for our wedding, for the ceremony and drinks reception. They played beautifully and helped make that part of the day so much more special. They accommodated all of our special requests and put together a lovely repertoire. Thank you so much! "

"Dear Caroline and “Ariana”. I wanted to contact you following the celebrations on Saturday to thank you again sincerely for your wonderful contribution to the day. It was magical to have your accompaniment to the ceremony and reception. The family would like to thank you all again for your very helpful, flexible and practical approach to the event in the planning and on the day, virtuosity (of course) and for your friendly involvement in such an important day. We would happily recommend you to friends seeking a string quartet for their events - so feel free to pass on my endorsement! With best wishes, Kathryn Hilton."

"Hi Emily, I wanted to say a hugeeeeee thank you for Saturday, you sounded so beautiful. Everyone kept saying how amazing you were and Adam said you set up so fast and were super professional. So sorry I didn’t get a chance to meet you both for very long, it was such a hectic first couple of hours, especially as I had never met half of the guests. Thank you so much again."

"Dear Anne, Thank you so much for organising a splendid orchestra for me on Saturday night. Thank you also for your dedication to the music. It is always a pleasure to work with you. You are such an asset to the community! The orchestral players are such a nice bunch of people to work with and it is great to have many of the same players back over and over again. As usual it was a great pleasure to work with you. Thank you for bringing the Cherubini to life for us. The orchestral colour adds so much to what is a rarely performed work and you did it superbly. We were very privileged to have such a talented pianist for the Tchaikovsky Concerto, which I know is also a challenge for the orchestra to play, especially with only an hour and a quarter to rehearse it! - But we did it and the audience were thrilled - the standing ovation was testament to that. As ever it was a pleasure to work with you all. All the best. "

"I approached The Grange Quartet to play at my fathers funeral playing for guests as they entered the church, they were absolutely perfect. True masters of their profession I have nothing but praise, it made such a solemn occasion truly beautiful. They also improvised when the organist missed a cue so really went above and beyond. I cannot recommend them highly enough."
