Great string quartet

We hired the Intermezzo Players for our wedding last month and they did a wonderful job! They were very easy to work with, were very responsive and organized, and beautifully performed ceremony and cocktail hour string music for us. A few different guests told us they especially appreciated their cocktail hour performances of the “Jurassic Park” theme song, songs from the “Phantom of the Opera” song track, and a few other fan favorites, so much so that one of our guests began singing a lot. We are very glad we hired them for our wedding!

They Will Elevate Your Day

We will always be grateful for the beauty that Intermezzo Chamber Players added to our special day. We hired them hoping that they would elevate our ceremony and that is exactly what they did. They made it feel like we were living in a movie. They delighted our guests as they arrived at the church, welcoming them with beautifully played selections. They accompanied our vocalist really well. And they played us out of our church, adding to the environment of joy and elation. Beth was easy to work with, and very communicative. We highly recommend hiring this group for your wedding.

Intermezzo = Amazing!!!

Beth was unbelievable to work with!! She went above and beyond to make sure all details were ironed out and was SUPER communicative (I really appreciated that with everything else we had going on with the wedding)! Not only that, they were phenomenal during the wedding and cocktail hour, just so so so good! I can't recommend Beth and Intermezzo enough! 100 stars out of 10!!

Beautiful Music and Professional

For as long as I could remember, I always wanted strings for my wedding day ceremony. The Intermezzo Players did not disappoint! Granted day of, as a bride you are having out of body experiences, but the communication leading up to the day and the music portfolio I requested was all spot on and appreciated. I have heard nothing but great things from our guests and my husband. Their synchronization, acoustics with the church and their professionalism was amazing. They even recognized a time when there was just silence (during communion) and they started playing (it wasn’t part of the contract because we needed them for just the beginning and end of ceremony). We just got our documentary video back and there are pieces I can hear them playing and it gave me chills and good feels. We are so happy we booked them, thank you so much again Intermezzo Players for making our day extra special with your music and collaboration!

Beautiful Live Ceremony and Cocktail Hour Music!

I used Intermezzo players for my ceremony and cocktail hour music. I always knew I wanted strings for my ceremony because of the romantic feel I was going for. They were recommended to me by our venue. Beth was great to work with on the music selection! Their website was helpful as well with listening to different pieces for the songs that I wanted. They also played the cocktail hour which I let them pick their selection of music and it was a hit for our guests! The group was punctual and was willing to travel south of Boston for my Friday wedding!

100th Birthday party

When I was planning a 100th birthday party for my mother I knew exactly who I wanted to play for our pre-dinner and birthday greetings. Five years ago, Intermezzo played for our daughter's wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and we loved their music and flexibility. Now, two children and a new house later, we couldn't wait to invite Beth and her trio back to play for my mother's party. They were wonderful and we all enjoyed having them contribute to the celebration. I only hope they will be available for my next big event.
