Reviews
As well as being a violinist, I love composing music! My music is inspired by the Cornish landscape and is a fusion of Classical and Celtic music. My music videos have been shown on Classic FM TV, Sky TV and BBC 1. I'm delighted that I am asked to perform some of my music at weddings and events, and here is the Classical Strings Quartet performing my music at the Porthleven Festival. The original music video of this track has been viewed over one million times on YouTube!
The Classical Strings Duo are playing this weekend in Plymouth and also at St Mellion International Resort! #wedding #music
Just finished arranging 'Viva Forever' for our next wedding - such a gorgeous song by the Spice Girls! #wedding #music #stringquartet
Working on a fabulous new arrangement for our Classical Strings Quartet to perform at one of our upcoming weddings, the theme from the film, 'Cinema Paradiso'! We have a huge repertoire of film music that I have arranged - please check out our website and have a listen or watch our videos! http://ow.ly/ucGz30o8mVQ
"Classical strings played at my daughters wedding, there were few dry eyes in the church, it sounded amazing, they played all the bride and grooms favourite songs, everyone commented on how wonderful it was. Thank you ladies for making this special day so much more. We all highly recommend these talented musicians," Loraine #stringquartet #wedding #music #cornwall
We are so looking forward to playing the duet from the film, 'Master and Commander' at one of our upcoming weddings! #cornwall #music #wedding
I love helping you create the perfect soundtrack for your special day, and I will arrange your favourite song for our Classical Strings ensemble to play at your wedding! What will you choose?! #wedding #music
Here is one of our most popular arrangements - the gorgeous 'Tale as Old as Time', which we first performed at The Alverton Hotel with the Classical Strings Trio. A timeless classic!
Just finished arranging some hymns for us to perform at one of our upcoming weddings. We can play instead of a traditional church organ or as well as! #stringquartet #wedding #music
Just finished a new special music arrangement for the Classical Strings Quartet to perform at one of our upcoming weddings! ‘La Vie En Rose’ will sound beautiful as the Bride makes her Entry 🎻💕 #wedding #music #stringquartet
I love working as a composer as well as being a violinist! My music is inspired by the Cornish landscape and is a fusion of Classical and Celtic music. My music videos have been shown on Classic FM TV, Sky TV and BBC 1. I'm delighted that I am asked to perform some of my music at weddings and events, and we will be performing my 'Scenes From a Cornish Childhood' at a wedding this year! Here is the Classical Strings Quartet performing this music at the Porthleven Festival.
Had a lovely time meeting one of our fabulous couples this morning to discuss the music they would like. I’m looking forward to arranging ‘White Wedding’, by Billy Idol for them to walk out of the ceremony to 💕🎻 #weddingmusic #stringquartet #cornwall
This has been one of my most popular requests for Solo Violin - the beautiful melody sounds gorgeous during the wedding ceremony. This clip was taken while I was warming up for a wedding at St Hilary church last year.
The Classical Strings Duo: Featuring the violin and cello, this combination is ideal for performing in a small space. The violin melodies are supported by the depth of the cello sound and creates a well balanced performance. The Classical Strings Duo is perfect for small gatherings, or performing in ceremonies in small country churches. http://ow.ly/5xyu30nvC9b #wedding #weddingmusic #cornwall #stringquartet
The Classical Strings Trio comprises of two violins and a cello, and performs the same wide-ranging repertoire as the Quartet.
The Trio is slightly more compact than the Quartet, so if space is a problem, but you would like more sound than a solo instrument, then this option is ideal. With both violins playing in harmony together, and the cello providing the bass line, there is music to suit everyone’s taste.
