Birmingham String Quartets

Birmingham String Quartets

The string quartets in Birmingham that we at Bands for Hire are excited to be working alongside are composed of some of the finest instrumentalists in the country. Guaranteed to pervade any event with their signature blend of tradition and sophistication, these in-demand musicians have graced such venues as the Royal College of Music and St James Palace, and have leant their considerable skills to acclaimed indie band the Pigeon Detectives and Brit winner Emeli Sande. These certified professionals will, for a very competitive price, raise the bar of excellence at your event with the very best of Mozart and Beethoven.

Hire a Wedding String Quartet in Birmingham

Contrary to popular belief, our Birmingham string quartets aren't just for weddings, although the slow-building Pachelbel's Canon in D will certainly resonate in a few ribcages. Other events that would benefit from some quartet class include garden parties, drinks receptions, graduations, awards ceremonies, corporate or charity events and private dinner functions to name but a handful.

Wouldn't It Be Nice, as the Beach Boys sang, to hear a Birmingham string quartet not only perform Schubert, Chopin and Strauss, but also Oasis, the Smiths and the Stone Roses? Some Might Say that God Only Knows, but we at Bands for Hire know your guests will be delighted to hear pop and rock hits by Green Day, Adele, Owl City, Madness and Queen played alongside Debussy, Haydn and Handel, as well as countless themes from beloved shows and films like Pirates of the Caribbean, Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho, Thunderbirds, Anything Goes and Harry Potter. If you're after, for example, operatic arias, jazz, traditional folk, Asian, Bollywood or Jewish wedding music, then search no further – our string quartets in Birmingham also perform a wide variety of compositions from more specialist genres.

Whether your event is to be held in Aston, Bournville, Castle Bromwich, Coleshill, Curdworth, Edgbaston, Great Barr, Hall Green, Hamstead, Harborne, Hurley, King’s Heath, King’s Norton, Marston Green, Moseley, Northfield, Olton, Over Whitacre, Packington, Perry Beeches, Quinton, Selly Oak, Sheldon, Shirley, Shustoke, Solihull, Stechford, Stockland Green, Sutton Coldfield, Walmley, Water Orton, Wednesbury, Wylde Green or Yardley, Bands for Hire will be able to maximise its sense of elegance and refinement with a Birmingham string quartet. However, if your budget or venue doesn't allow for the whole cello, viola and two violins package, Bands for Hire also offers string duos, string trios and string ensembles. Please feel free to get in touch with us with any queries, and we'll do our utmost to make your experience with us a positive and enjoyable one.

If you're interested in having more relaxing music played at your event then you might also be interested in our Birmingham harpists or pianists in Birmingham.

Bands For Hire Reviews
★★★★★

The Bands For Hire service was very prompt and efficient. I specifically chose Olympia Ensemble as I loved their modern, fresh sound and the wide range of music that they offered. Some quartets are 'stuffy' and old fashioned - not Olympia Ensemble! Everything was perfect from start to finish - they gave us a huge range of music, from classical, jazz and pop, there was something for everyone.
