WEDDING REPERTOIRE

We are often asked if we have a particular piece in our repertoire; so it is here in full, categorized by ensemble type and listed in alphabetical order by the composer's name. If you do not know the composer's name, please feel free to contact us and we can try to help you out.

While a piece may be playable for string quartet, it may not be for a duo, so please check if the piece you desire is listed under your ensemble.
