Gorgeous Music!

We hired Edina and her string quartet for our March 2024 wedding and are so glad we did! Her group played such gorgeous music - both songs we chose for the ceremony and songs they chose for the prelude.

They even wrote and played a Taylor Swift song from scratch per my request for my entrance song. They sent me a recording of it ahead of time to make sure I liked it and worked with me to find the perfect moment to enter the ceremony room.

We got so many compliments from our guests and I'm happy to recommend them to future brides!!!!

A Magical String Quartet Experience

European Ensemble Strings was absolutely amazing and exceeded all expectations. They truly captured the essence of our wedding and created a magical atmosphere.

During the cocktail hour, the quartet played lively and upbeat music that got everyone in the mood to celebrate. It was the perfect way to kick off the reception and set the tone for the rest of the evening.

The quartet was incredibly professional and looked stunning. They were also very responsive to our requests and made sure that everything went smoothly. They had a wide repertoire of music and played each piece with precision and passion. It was clear that they were all highly skilled musicians who had a deep love for their craft.

We received a ton of compliments from our guests about the quartet. They truly made our wedding unforgettable and we are so grateful for their amazing performance.

When I was hired to perform at an event for the classical music radio station I was pleased to share the stage with European Ensemble. They are an amazing quartet who play many styles of music. I was thrilled when they joined me on a Jazz Standard and then we played a bit together on a classical piece as well. This is truly a unique quartet as they perform all styles of music from Bach to Rock. What a thrill it was to hear them perform and a greater thrill to perform with them.
