String quartet for wedding
Adagio Weddings string quartet promises to deliver an unforgettable performance of Modern, Broadway, Disney, American Standards, or Classical music with richness and vibrancy are rarely seen. We will compliment any event. Weddings, fundraisers, church ceremonies, and cocktail parties.
What does a string quartet consist of? A traditional quartet includes four instruments: two violins, a viola, and a cello.
How long can I book a string quartet for?
In a traditional wedding processional, a 1-hour set is usually broken down to 20-30 minutes of pre-ceremony or prelude music while your guests are taking their seats. The ceremony, which includes the bride and bridal party entrance music and any music selection during the ceremony. And finally, post-ceremony or postlude music, referring to the formal exit of the bridal party including the bride and groom, the bridesmaids and groomsmen. Post Ceremony music is also performed while your guests are relocating to the cocktail hour spot.
All of this is included in our 1 hour Silver Package. But don`t forget that string ensembles are portable. If your wedding ceremony and reception are in the same venue, it usually takes 10-15 min to relocate the whole ensemble. You can also use a string quartet during the cocktail hour and/or during dinner. String quartets are great for mood-setting background, chill music. They are loud enough to be heard and enjoyed but not so loud that they’ll drown out conversation.
Does a string quartet need a break between the sets?
We generally take a 10-minute break per hour throughout an event of 2 hours or more. We are ready to coordinate our breaks with your reception timeline, your speeches, and toasts for example, so our breaks will be seamless.
How much does it cost to hire a classical quartet for a wedding?
The pricing for any musician of course will depend on the type of instrument you choose, the number of musicians, and the length of the performance.
Solo musicians as might be expected will cost you less than string duos, trios, or string quartets.
The pricing can vary from region to region and the musician`s experience education, but the average wedding quartet cost in U. S.
( soloist, duo, trio ) tends to run anywhere from $325 and $2,000.
