The Crystal Palace String Quartet was founded by graduates of Britain's top music colleges. Their shared passion for chamber music has allowed them to acquire an extensive repertoire and to gain experience in providing live music for all kinds of events, ranging from weddings, civil partnerships, parties and corporate functions to band music, sessions, and TV. Their repertoire ranges from baroque to pop and covers nearly every imaginable genre in between. The Crystal Palace String Quartet can be booked as a duo, trio or quartet.
Thank you for helping to make our perfect day.
"I booked as a trio. They were very lovely and talented people.
It was a surprise for my wife on her 40th at our garden party in Pinner
All our guests were stunned and very impressed. The musicians played one hour of light classical and the next of contemporary interpretations. The whole event was uplifted by the performance.
I would definitely recommend."
The quartet were very professional, setting up on time and with zero fuss. Their repertoire and playing were both brilliant and many guests commented on how much they enjoyed the music. My only regret is I couldn't hear more of them myself as I was away having photos done, but they did a great job and would definitely recommend
The vibe was perfect, both in the ceremony and during the drinks reception, and you nailed the entrance and exit. It is only a shame that we both had to disappear for half an hour and so didn’t get to hear more of you playing. We have of course had so many compliments from guests who thought you were absolutely fantastic.
