The Quadrant Strings

The Quadrant Strings musicians have many years of performing experience at professional level.

Previous functions for which the group have been requested include London’s most well-known private members club, The Athenaeum, Pall Mall.

The repertoire for both trio and quartet includes classical, light-music and jazz – all ideally suited for an ambient environment. The ensemble is also able to ‘mike-up’ for larger or outside venues.

The trio and quartet can offer most of the hundreds of pieces written for these combinations of players.

Particular requests for an event can be dropped into the ‘playlist’. Otherwise, they will simply include music that they consider ideally suited for each and every event.
