A guide to booking

Hire Classical Duos in Ontario, Canada

Classical duos in Ontario, Canada typically pair a melodic instrument such as violin, cello or flute with piano or harp, giving you the harmony and warmth of a small ensemble in a footprint that fits comfortably into ceremony spaces, drinks reception areas and dinner rooms. Most acts cover a mix of baroque, romantic and contemporary classical works alongside arrangements of pop and film music for couples who want both traditional and personal touches.

Wedding and Event Use

Ceremony bookings usually cover prelude, processional, signing and recessional across roughly 30 to 45 minutes of music. Drinks reception and dinner sets normally run for an hour or two, split into 45-minute halves with short breaks. Local duos will learn requested pieces given a few weeks' notice, and many can scale up by adding a third or fourth player for couples wanting a fuller string sound for the aisle or first dance.

Classical Duo Pricing

Rates for classical duos in Ontario generally range from $280 for shorter ceremony performances to $1,650+ for full-day wedding bookings or established acts with extensive event experience. The average price of $650 typically covers performance time, basic amplification where needed, and consultation on repertoire.

Photo of Your Pianist for Wedding, Concert & Event Your Pianist for Wedding, Concert & Event "Lisa Maria Schachtschneider hat unseren besonderen Tag musikalisch wundervoll begleitet. Sie war äusserst professionell, zuverlässig und hat mit ihrem Klavierspiel eine ganz besondere Atmosphäre geschaffen. Ihre Musik hat unsere Feier perfekt untermalt und viele schöne Momente noch unvergesslicher gemacht. Wir können sie von Herzen weiterempfehlen und bedanken uns für ihre grossartige Begleitung!" 6th July 2026 Annalisa Lüthi - Wedding Ceremony plus Apéro Photo of Hans professional violinist Hans professional violinist "Hans is not only an amazing Violinist, he is an amazing person and made every step of booking a Violinist in a different country for our wedding as easy as possible. From the first video call well before our wedding, to constantly making sure we were creating the perfect ceremony/cocktail/dinner playing experience I can not stress enough how quick his responses were and how much he actually cared about our special day. Hans quickly put together a professional contract for us so all the details were set in stone almost half a year before the wedding date! Hans was able to play ANY song that we requested as well as to play a very specific piece during my wife’s walk down the aisle - timing it perfect and effortlessly all by himself. Furthermore Hans actually also helped us out with other caterers and arranged his own transport to a very remote location. 10/10 experience working with Hans through the entire process" 20th July 2026 Mikael Torpegaard - Wedding at Chateau Photo of Enchanted Cello by Dawei Tan Enchanted Cello by Dawei Tan "Je vous recommande fortement Dawei votre cérémonie de marriage. Il est tellement professionnel et à l’écoute au client. Il a initialisé la préparation bien en amont avec l’échange détaillé pour assurer que ça se passe bien le jour j. C’est la chance d’avoir l’accompagnement de ce groupe pendant notre marriage." 5th August 2026 Lin - Wedding Photo of Anton Violinist & Ensemble Anton Violinist & Ensemble "Thank you Anton You made our NYE musically so joyful !😀 Wishing you and your teammates a very happy new year" 11th August 2026 E.M. - Private NYE Concert Photo of Pausa Caffè Pausa Caffè "Pausa Caffè were a wonderful addition to our event. Their music was elegant, refined and perfectly suited to the atmosphere of Parole in Sila. The combination of beautiful vocals and piano created a warm and engaging atmosphere without ever overpowering the event. They were professional, well organised and a pleasure to work with. We would definitely recommend them for cultural events and special occasions." 24th August 2026 Parole in Sila Photo of Strings Of The Heart Strings Of The Heart "“Amazing and mesmerizing Classical Duo.
