The Ariana String Quartet is an established Yorkshire based string quartet with a wealth of experience built up over the last 20 years.
Ariana String Quartet can provide a varied programme of music to suit any occasion and plays throughout the north of England. Wedding music can be chosen to suit a church wedding, civil ceremony, drinks reception or wedding breakfast. All corporate events catered for.
Incredible performance. Traditional string quartet, playing beautiful music for our wedding reception - what could be better! Such a good performance that our guests were pulling up chairs to sit closer and listen. Thank you so much.
Weddings. Anniversaries. Parties. Military dinners. Corporate events.
1 hour minimum (ie wedding ceremony). The majority of our bookings are up to 4 hours but we can play longer as long as we have suitable breaks.
We have individual stand lights.
Yes, we have Public Liability. We do not use electrical equipment.
We require a space about 3 metres square.
Many songs are added to the repertoire list as they are requested. We will endeavor to source a copy and if necessary write our own arrangement. There may be a small charge for this.
We would take a break of around 10 minutes every hour, but when possible try to make these breaks coincide with a change of position from one room to another.
