    Ptarmigan Quartet was perfect for my event!

    Ptarmigan Quartet was perfect for my event. They were professional, talented, and added just the right touch with music that was exactly what I asked for. Their fees are reasonable and worth every penny and more. Highly recommend them!

    Highly recommend Ptarmigan String Quartet!

    Ptarmigan String Quartet's music was absolutely beautiful. It set the mood for a wonderful evening. They were wonderful to work with - responsive, asked great questions and worked well with the other wedding vendors. So happy I had the privilege of working with them.

    Excellent! Made our special day perfect!

    Ptarmigan made our wedding ceremony so perfectly complete! In addition to their beautiful music, their responsiveness, flexibility, and overall support for us made a tremendous difference. We hesitated in the beginning about the cost but our experience with them made it worth every penny! I highly recommend them to anyone desiring a rich and beautiful musical addition to a wedding ceremony!

    As a planner, we always love working with other vendors who love what they do! Vicki and the Ptarmigan Quartet were so organized and professional, and their music really made the ceremony for the bride + groom! We highly recommend the quartet, and look forward to working with them again ourselves in the future!

    These women were THE BEST!!! What lovely music they played. We thought we were in Heaven. They came on time, played at the ceremony, then moved over to our reception. I didn't have to do a thing, but have my nephew set up a tent outside so they wouldn't be in the sun. What a breeze they were to work with during this hectic time. I only hope my other two daughters get married in Estes Park or the Denver area so that I can use them again! XOXOXO

    They were wonderful! Everyone commented on how beautiful the string arrangements of oldies were, and Vicki worked hard to find pieces for me that weren't in their usual listings. I was so glad to have them perform!

    Dear Austen, thanks so much for taking time to provide a review and comments on our performance of your wedding music! We enjoyed working with you on your beautiful wedding at Della Terra in Estes Park.

    Ptarmigan String Quartet did a wonderful job arranging the music, as well as determining the correct timing cues. The different pieces flowed very well throughout the ceremony.

    Vicki and the other musicians were excellent and their work profound! They were dedicated to my wedding and did everything to make sure it was a smooth event. They even took time to attend my rehearsal which was a far drive from where they lived to make sure they knew the right moments to play for a catholic wedding. If you are not catholic a nuptial mass can be confusing. They also took the time to create a script to ensure they played everything on que. My husband and I were so fortunate to have such professional, dedicated, and talented musicians for our wedding day. There music was excellent and they sounded great. All of our family and friends complimented how great the music was for our wedding. I would highly recommend them to anyone and everyone!

    I have worked with the Ptarmigan Quartet a few times now. They have accompanied my university acting styles course final project, in three specific time periods, Baroque, Regency, and Victorian. In each case, they worked with me extensively in selecting period and character appropriate material, collaborated on placement of music in program, and were always flexible in the coordination of the very complicated process. I would recommend them for any event as they really do listen to what you want and make sure to do the best to bring that vision to life in the moment.

    Vicki was an absolute delight to work with! I live in NJ & was planning my daughter's Wedding in CO, so we basically did everything over the phone. The Quartet played during the Ceremony + the Cocktail Hour and absolutely elevated the level of the affair. They were also very accommodating re playing all of my requests. Many of the Guests commented to me on how much they enjoyed the Quartet's music. I couldn't have been more pleased and would certainly recommend them to anyone who would like to add a touch of class to their affair.

    Ptarmigan String Quartet receives an overall 5.0/5.0 rating starting with my initial contact and wedding planning with the quartet ending with their exceptional performance at my daughter's wedding. We could not have been more pleased with their professionalism, performance, and level of service. We provided a play list, and they were able to accomodate our wishes for this special day. I highly recommend this group to any brides or Mothers-of-the-bride looking for that special something to complete a beautiful wedding.

    I am a professor at the University of Colorado at Boulder and I recently invited the Ptarmigan Quartet to accompany an advance acting class final project, focusing on the French Baroque time period. This is a rather unusual "structured improvisation" by which the students are required to live fully in the time period for more than two hours.
    In order to prepare for the salon project, I met with the coordinator of the quartet at least three times in person and we corresponded frequently over email and the phone to make sure the music and timing were just right. I must say that she, and the entire group really MADE this experience the success that it was for both the students and the audience that day. They were so incredibly accommodating, professional, and always pleasant that we could not have asked for a better scenario! I really wished I would have known about this group when I was getting married, I would use them in a heartbeat!

    Ptarmigan Classical and Rock String Quartet's reply:

    Dear Tamara, Thank you so much for your kind words about Ptarmigan String Quartet! We appreciated the opportunity to work with you and your students who also did a professional job and presented an inspiring performance. You and the CU Theatre Department are top notch! Thank you.

    This quartet provided lovely music for our son's wedding. Their repertoire is extensive and included everything we wanted. They even accommodated our request to have them play a special piece composed by a great, great grandfather. They are well-organized, professional, friendly, and their musicality is of a high standard. We were very pleased that we found them and would hire them again without hesitation!

    The Ptarmigan String Quartet was great! The ceremony was gorgeous, and we had many compliments on the music. They even found music for an obscure song that was special to us, and stuck it out through the windy weather we had the day of the wedding. They were professional, and definitely prepared.

    Instead of having the quartet play, we had the string trio play and they were absolutely amazing!!!!! Vicki was there throughout the entire process to answer any questions I had and to remind me when upcoming due dates were around the corner. She would always respond in a timely manner. The music was perfect and they did such a great job matching aspects of the ceremony with the music. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who wants a violinist to play at their wedding. Simply wonderful!

    Vicki was very prompt in her response which I appreciated. I actually went with this quartet instead of another Strings gorup because she seemed excited to do it and was quick to respond. Vicki was always available to answer questions and the music was amazing the day of the wedding. I don't think I could have asked for anything to be different and I would highly recommend them!
