Testimonials
From when we contacted the quartet, they could not have been more helpful. They totally understood our requirements concerning the music for the occasion and about how we would like them to vary the volume so that they did not make it difficult for guests to have conversations during the wedding reception.
The admin all went very smoothly (they gave us the insurance that the hotel required) and they were a delight to work with. We would not hesitate to recommend them and would be happy to speak with any future clients who might like to talk with us about hiring them.
We engaged them to play live music at our daughters wedding which was held in one of London’s leading hotels. They looked and sounded amazing and all our guests were most impressed and said how much they enjoyed their live music. We discussed the type of music we wanted but left the selection of the individual pieces to the quartet. They seemed to know exactly what was appropriate and they judged it perfectly with a wide repertoire of jazz and lights classical music.
We would definitely choose the Maricis to play at any future occasion and have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them.
The ladies were absolutely fabulous and the guests at my party were effusive in their praise. For me, they gave a professional performance but managed to add on good humour and a lot of enthusiasm.
Given the conditions at the time, a huge downpour, they could have been forgiven for a lesser performance. In short: marvellous!
