Enchanted Cello by Dawei Tan
"Dawei and his partner played beautiful pieces of music on the day of our wedding.
I will always remember that moving moment when I entered the church with Pachelbel's Canon played by this talented violinist resonating. It was an exceptionally hot day, but the melodious pieces brought us a bit of freshness and poetry.
"Kind, humble, talented, respectful, serious, attentive... I am fully satisfied with his work and his performance. I strongly recommend this cellist!"
Bohdana HORECKA
"Bohdana and the quartet were as flexible as they are talented. Our bride and groom had a very specific list of musical pieces they wanted performed, and Bohdana and her fellow musicians were accommodating and easy to communicate with. Most importantly, their performance was outstanding and deeply moving, and made a special day even more memorable!"
String Duo Bordeaux
"What wonderful musicians! I really enjoyed working with them."
Antony Cello
"We wanted something classy for our drinks reception the night before our wedding. Antony was incredible from start to finish. His communication was clear and concise which made him really easy to deal with.
He played incredibly non stop in 40 degree heat and even stayed on to do an extra 20 minutes. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you Antony!"
WE DUO - Violin and Cello
"WE DUO was definitely one of the highlights of our wedding in Evora! From the first consultation (Filipa is very prompt and responsive!) to the day of the event, we could not be happier with their service. They have a large repertoire of music to choose from and are also very accommodating when it comes to learning new music which made our event feel truly personal. We had so many guests approach us after the wedding ceremony who told us how much they loved the music that Filipa and Bruno played."
Cello Teti
"Thank you so much for making our big day so special! Everyone is raving about how amazing you were and it was exactly what we envisioned 🤍"
