Q: Which ensemble should I choose? A: Please read the descriptions below and choose the group which fits your interests the best. STRING QUARTET: Two violins, viola, and cello perform in a wide variety of musical styles. This group is the most effective and versatile, with an extensive repertoire, and full vibrant sound. STRING QUINTET: adding a double bass to the quartet increases the volume by deepening the base and gives the feeling of a small orchestra-excellent for the largest parties. String Trio: Two violins and cello or violin, viola and cello. This group is very popular, especially for smaller weddings. Not quite as loud as the quartet, but has an extensive repertoire and is better suited for a modest budget and limited space. FLUTE TRIO: Flute, violin and cello, similar to the string trio, with the added touch of the flute sound. Other: adding a trumpet or vocalist to a string ensemble can produce a beautiful effect if used sparingly.
STRING DUO: Two violins or violin and cello. This is very intimate ensemble, which can create a beautiful atmosphere, but has a limited volume. Excellent for smaller events and spaces |
