Firenze Classica – String live Ensembles
"“We had a location in the countryside outside Florence, and we got the food from buonatavola (aperitivo and dinner) and the music from firenzeclassica.
Firenze classica was really fantastic, we had a string quartet and, if you ask them in advance, they also play any modern song you request. Of course, if you give them time to rehearse.
They both did an incredible job without emptying our bank account.”
