Somerset String Quartets
Sometimes, there's nothing for it other than to pull out all the stops and treat your guests to the utterly sophisticated sounds of a fantastic local string quartet in Somerset from Bands for Hire.

Hire a Wedding String Quartet in Somerset
If you think your garden party, graduation, store opening, awards ceremony, private dinner function, birthday, drinks reception, charity event or corporate event would benefit from being scored with classy classical music, then look no further! Our Somerset string quartets are impeccable players with endless minuets, arias and suites under their belts, and always bestow a perceptible air of elegance upon whatever venue they find themselves in. Wedding breakfasts and wedding receptions are particularly suitable setting for this style of music – feeling the cello of Pachelbel's Canon in D or Wagner's Bridal Chorus resonating in your chest as the bride approaches down the aisle will make your heart skip a beat.
All of our musicians at Bands for Hire pride themselves in selecting a vast range of songs in order to please as varied an audience as possible, and while it's established that hearing a rock band playing Get Lucky by Daft Punk is thoroughly entertaining, it's not as much of a musical leap as a Somerset string quartet performing I Believe in a Thing Called Love by the Darkness. Our string quartets in Somerset, aside from masterfully performing Vivaldi,Tchaikovsky and Mozart, do enjoy performing the contemporary rock and pop of Lady Gaga, AC/DC, the Cure, Oasis and Robbie Williams, as well as themes from the Wizard of Oz, Blackadder, Game of Thrones, Joseph and his Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Les Miserables, Pirates of the Caribbean and many other beloved television shows, films and musicals.
If a Somerset string quartet, being two violinists, a violists and a cellist, doesn't sound like it would suit you budget and venue requirements, then Bands for Hire has a solution. We can also offer string duos, string trios, or even larger string ensembles if you wish to flesh out the sound further.

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.
