Based in Dorchester, Dorset, the Arioso String Quartet is available to play for weddings and receptions, civil partnership ceremonies, corporate functions and private parties throughout the south and south west of England. Many of our engagements are in the counties of Dorset, Devon and Somerset; however we frequently travel further afield to Cornwall, Bristol and Bath, Hampshire and Wiltshire, and far beyond. We will be pleased to quote wherever your event is to be held.

We always aim to provide delightful and entertaining music to suit the exact occasion. You can listen to us playing tracks from our extensive library of wedding music by using the media player at the bottom of your screen.

What instruments do you play?
Like all string quartets, the Arioso Quartet consists of two violins, a viola, and a cello.
My favourite tune is not on your list. Will you be able to play it?
If it’s at all possible, yes we like to be able to do this for our clients. Please ask.
How will you dress for my wedding?
We can ‘dress up’ or ‘dress down’. The gentlemen of the quartet would normally wear dinner jackets, black or white at your choice, but we can wear dark suits, black or coloured shirts, or indeed full white tie and tails if you prefer.
How much space do you need?
Ideally, about 2 x 3 meters, although we have been known to squeeze into smaller spaces.
How many breaks do you take? How long are they?
We take 5 minutes break per hour; for example, in a three hour session, this might be taken as one break of 15 minutes.
Do you play recorded music during breaks?
No, we believe that recorded music in the breaks detracts from our performance and the atmosphere of your event.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes, the individual members of the Arioso Quartet have UK Public Liability Insurance to a level of indemnity of £10 million.
Can you play out of doors?
Yes and No! String instruments are delicate and valuable things, often 200 years old or more, and should never be exposed to rain, sun or extremes of temperature. However, if we are given advance notice it may well be possible, provided that we are under
