Solo performer - For intimate occasions or private dinners, a soloist is the perfect choice. There is wonderful repertoire suitable for solo Violin, Harp, or Flute. For weddings, a Trumpet can be added for heralding the arrival of the bride. We also offer Vocalists who are adept at many styles of music.

Anniversary, openings, or small venues, a Solo instrumentalist might be just enough to add the warm, romantic touch you would prefer.

A Duet - We offer several Duo combinations. The Violin/Cello duo is a perfect blend of high and low voices. For two similar sounding instruments, pair up two violins for a Violin Duo. Our Flute/Violin Duo is an elegant combination of wind and strings. We offer a Harp/Violin or Harp/Flute Duo as well.

For restaurants, galleries, small venues, and special occasions. A Duet will liven up special get togethers for old friends, office celebrations, and create meaningful, lasting events.

Our Trio - Three musicians. The instrumentation can be flexible: a flute, violin, and cello (the Flute Trio); two violins and cello; or violin, viola and cello (both of these are called String Trio). With harp, violin and cello, the group becomes our Harp Trio. Much early music from the Baroque era was written for this smaller size group.

All of the music performed by our Quartet can also be played by the Trio. However, with one less performer, less sound is produced. This ensemble is well suited to smaller venues.

The Quartet - Made up of four musicians. This ensemble always includes a violin, viola and cello, plus one other musician. If the fourth player is a flutist, the ensemble is called the Flute Quartet. With a violinist as the fourth, we refer to the group as our String Quartet.

Most of our repertoire sounds best with four players, as there are four "voices" creating the music. Harmonies are rich, the sound is big, and the music is impressive. We recommend the

Quartet as the group to hire if you want the very best.
