Review Centre: Classical Ensembles

"We were privileged to have North East Serenade for the first part of our son's wedding. This helped create a great atmosphere pre and post ceremony. They have an extensive repertoire from which to choose and will even arrange requests as long as they are given adequate notice. We are very pleased that they were able to attend and would not hesitate to recommend them."

"The girls were absolutely amazing, and of course the two guys as well! The performance was absolutely stunning and I’ve had great feedback from so many people. The outfits the girls were wearing were amazing and their energy was contagious. It was especially wonderful that they came out for a second set which was just absolutely beautiful and perfect –– that was completely awesome! Please do send them all my sincere thanks."

"What a wonderful afternoon Surrey Strings provided for our annual classical concert! Our audience gave them a standing ovation at the end. Beautiful pieces exquisitely performed. We could not have wished for better. Thank you very much! Also the communication and organisation with the agency and performers was very smooth and fast. 10 out of 10."

"Hi Rachel, Oh what a fantastic day we had!! I can honestly say that we had a magical day and managed to enjoy every moment. And great thanks to you and your girls. You were amazing - everybody commented about your playing and how they thoroughly enjoyed the music - it was a great decision to have you playing at the wedding and any chance we get to ask you for other functions, we certainly will do. You were professional and at the same time, very friendly and I'm not the only person who commented on the day. It's so good that we could simply put our trust in you - great job!!!! So, once again, from Pauline and myself, thanks a million for the part you played in making the day so special. "

"We booked Trio Capricco on a whim at a wedding show and it was the perfect decision for our relaxed but traditional wedding. They effortlessly blended in and played beautifully for our guests. Easy to communicate with and very professional. Our guests have all since commented what a wonderful choice of entertainment they were. Our daughter and little flower girls adored the odd version of a Disney song or two they threw in too. One guest even took a business card with them for future events. Simply fantastic."

"Element were a dream to work with for my father's surprise 60th. I chose them because of the repertoire and yet when I requested a song that was not on the song list they were quick to put it together just for our event. On the night, they slipped in amidst the chaos of 120 people, they prepared and were ready to play. The schedule had to be changed a few times on the night and they were flexible and professional throughout...and then they played. It was beautiful. One of my Uncles stood up involuntarily during Nessun Dorma to look closer and my father repeatedly leant over the dinner table to remark on how wonderfully they played. I could not recommend the Element string Quartet highly enough, but I will certainly try! 6th December 2017"

"Booked Deep Down Brass for our evening wedding entertainment. Great communication in advance of the day. Seamless set up and clear away on the day and worked really well in conjunction with a DJ. Very talented musicians and great set list. Guest also loved it and particularly enjoyed when they walked through the crowd with the instruments. Made everyone feel included even if they weren’t able to dance. Would absolutely recommend Deep Down Brass. They were superb"

"Just a quick note to thank you for playing at the wedding of my daughter Emma and Nathaniel's wedding on the 29th December at the Old Swan Hotel. Iam sorry that I was unable to catch you on the evening and express my thanks as the ceilidh capped a wonderful day. For many of the guests this was their first experience of a ceilidh as we had guests from Australia, Japan, Switzerland and Canada. They/we loved it and you made the dance routines very clear with your instructions. Those that could no dance really the live music. Please pass on my gratitude to the other musicians. Kind regards, David Strode."

"This quartet performed at our wedding this weekend and I have to say - they were brilliant. The range of music they have, the communication, the patience they had with our little one - not to even mention the fact they perfectly played away during our drinks and meal along with the ceremony, I'm so glad we hired them. Thank you guys so much!"

"Hi Anne, I am so sorry for such a late response! It has been a bit hectic since the wedding!! We thoroughly enjoyed the trio! Beautiful performance and very accommodating!! We had many compliments on them. I just wish, as the bride, I could have had more time to sit down and enjoy them! Should another opportunity arise we would definitely use them again!! Thank you! I do hope they were happy and looked after. Thank you Anne, have a great weekend. Amber "

"This quartet played at my wedding in August, after originally being booked for August 2020! They accomodated to 3 different wedding dates for us in the end, due to 2 postponements! Yhe communication throughout an insanely stressful 2 years was amazing, Kim even waivered the admin fee of changing the date twice due to money issues from loss of earnings during Covid. I had a particular piece of music I wanted to walk down the aisle to from Game Of Thrones, but it had never been arranged for a string quartet. This was not an issue for the amazing team, who spent months listening to the original and making me my own bespoke piece of music by recreating it. They played before my ceremony whilst guests were arriving, during the drinks reception whilst my husband and I went away for private photos and then even stayed a little longer. My guests absolutely adored them, they played loads of music from films and TV shows and even the children were recognising certain songs! They also played a bit of Def Leppard and took requests from very keen guests. They made the atmosphere and were so lovely to be around. 6 months later, I will still see people that attended and they'll say "oh my gosh, your string quartet was amazing!" Well worth the money and the wait. Added something spectacular to our beautiful day that we will never forget. Thank you "
