    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!"

    String Duo Lefka Ori
    "Lauri and Bernhard played at our wedding and were absolutely wonderful. Their performance was beautiful and added such a unique, special atmosphere to the day. They were so accommodating and flexible, making sure everything fit perfectly with the flow of our celebration. Beyond being incredibly talented musicians, they were a joy to work with, and we couldn’t be happier with how much they contributed to making the day memorable. They are forever engraved in our hearts "

Everything about her performance was phenomenal. 10/10 would recommend"

    Edelweiss Quartet
    "We were lucky enough to have Edelweiss perform during our ceremony, and their playing was truly spectacular! Besides being a truly charming band, they are top-notch professionals! Their stage presence, willingness to adapt to our musical tastes, and ease of communication made it a pleasure to work with them. They worked their magic throughout the entire ceremony! We will definitely be working with them for future events. Thank you so much, Edelweiss, for sharing your music with us!"

    London Two Cellos
    "Nicola and Laura played for my wedding (both cellists), at the ceremony, reception and wedding breakfast. String Musicians have made it so easy and stress free for myself, during the planning and also on the wedding day. Once I told them what I wanted for the music (from the style of music to specific pieces), I did not need to worry about anything else. They worked with the registrar from the council to coordinate cues during the ceremony, so the transition between music pieces was seamless. Many guests commented how well they played throughout the day! Thank you!"

    London String Quartet "Kara Strings"
    "We hired the Kara Strings quartet for our corporate event and they were truly the highlight of the evening. The performance was elegant, engaging and perfectly suited to the atmosphere of the event. So many of our guests came up to us afterwards to say how much they enjoyed the music and to ask about the musicians. The quartet were professional, punctual and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. If you are looking for a high-quality string quartet for a corporate event or special occasion, I would highly recommend Kara Strings."

    Frequently asked questions

    Many cellists have a versatile repertoire that extends beyond classical music to include popular songs, film scores, jazz and contemporary arrangements. Some cellists use loop pedals and effects to create a fuller, more modern sound. It is worth checking each performer's profile for their repertoire.
    Hiring cellists is popular for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate events, private dinners and classical concerts. The cello's rich, warm tone creates an elegant atmosphere and works well as both solo background music and as part of a string ensemble.
    Most cellists need very little setup - just a chair without arms and enough space to perform comfortably. For larger venues, a microphone or small amplification system may be useful. It is a good idea to confirm any technical needs with the cellist before the event.
    The average cost of hiring cellists is $624, with prices from $166 to $1999. Rates depend on the cellist's experience, performance duration and the style of music required. A solo cello performance can provide elegant background music for ceremonies, dinners and receptions.
