Acoustic Ensemble

The Acoustic Ensemble introduces a fresh twist to the classical string quartet by incorporating percussion and bass to deliver a beautifully organic sound. They are ideal for providing instrumental background music at corporate receptions, during dinner, or for informal wedding receptions, covering a mix of modern and timeless tracks.

The sets are performed on acoustic instruments with gentle amplification that does not interfere with guests’ conversations. For a more exclusive ambiance, the Acoustic Ensemble can perform without amplification for boutique venues and select guest list events. Unamplified performances are recommended for events with fewer than 40 guests.

The Acoustic Ensemble creates the perfect atmosphere for business events, offering relaxing background music for lunches, networking events, conference or seminar receptions, and team meetings. For weddings, the ensemble adds a romantic touch with live string music for the ceremony and elegant entertainment for the drinks reception.

They are available in two sizes: the original 6-piece ensemble or an 11-piece ensemble. The latter provides a larger ensemble look and sound, featuring a double string quartet plus two percussionists and double bass. Both formats offer over 3 hours of repertoire to choose from, which is continually updated. Recent additions include the beautifully anthemic ‘One Day Like This’ by Elbow and the poignant ‘Blowers Daughter’ by Damien Rice.

They have also expanded their orchestra to include a male or female vocalist with the option of keyboards. This lineup has become extremely popular for events seeking a more mellow atmosphere while still wanting a vocalist to perform for guests.
