String Duo

String Duo String Duo

Many people opt for the full sound of a string quartet to make a function really special. Manor House Music are also increasingly being asked to provide music for more intimate occasions - perhaps with fewer guests, or where the sound of a quartet can actually be overpowering. For this reason, we are happy to offer a growing repertoire of music for string duo.

Written for the combinations of a Violin and Viola or Violin and Cello, a duo is highly portable. We are frequently asked to give a performance that can move around the venue - such as playing at various tables during a meal, or entertaining wedding guests during the photographs.

With only two musicians instead of four, a duo takes up less space and is perfect for private functions in smaller venues or if your budget doesn't quite stretch to a whole quartet. With our carefully written arrangements, two instruments can still sound surprisingly detailed.

Solo

Another option for smaller functions is to book a solo Violinist. Our repertoire for solo Violin consists mainly of classical, light jazz, celtic or traditional music. A soloist is again highly portable and is a very popular choice for a wedding ceremony, formal dinner, birthday party or just to serenade a special person.

Testimonial
      Dearest Vaughan, We would just like to thank you and the quartet for making our wedding an unforgettable day. The music was perfect. You were the main topic of conversation for the entire day. My friends could not praise you enough. My only regret was not hiring you for the whole day. Once again a big fat thank you. Best wishes and lots of love, Sui and Kelvin (Wedding at Wadhurst Castle)
