We are a violin and cello duo with decades of experience, having played concerts all over the world. We like playing all sizes of venues and for all sorts of listeners. Background music is not really our thing, but might be, for the right price... However, we are happy to add our harmonies to your wedding or special occasion, and we can also add some players to make a string quartet. We also love introducing classical music to new listeners by introducing the music we play in a friendly, informative and accessible way.

Lots of other options...
We are acoustic/unplugged and don't need much space. One straight-bottomed chair. We bring our own music stands. A separate room to unpack in is a plus. A quiet ambience allows our music to speak for itself. Good sightlines for the audience enhance the listening experience.
