”Thank you so much for your performances yesterday. Everyone enjoyed it as a splendid backdrop to a lovely afternoon. A number of my guests with some musical knowledge really appreciated your skill and ability and were excited by the sound you made together.” – Annabel Burn, Birthday Party, Queen’s House, London
“We booked Classical Strings as a duo for one of our major supporter events. They were wonderful and fitted into the occasion seamlessly, providing just the right atmosphere and helping to make the event such a success. They were friendly and professional to work with and we would be very happy to book them again.” – Leonie Shaw, National Maritime Museum at Royal Museums Greenwich
”They played at my sister’s party at the Queen’s House, Greenwich. I enjoyed their wide and varied repertoire, wonderful energy and really tight playing in an echoey hall. I would recommend Vanity Strings to anybody, without hesitation.” – Mark Iliff, Birthday Party, Queen’s House, London
“I booked this string quartet very last minute for a formal supper on advice from LMM. They were fantastic! They were friendly, flexible and their music was perfect for the occasion, a very talented group who would add sparkle to any event – will definitely book them again.” – Jamie Harle, The British Army Dinner, Norfolk
“I was at a wonderful party at the Queens House Greenwich which Vanity Strings played at in early March this year ( 2012.). Their sound is wonderful and ensemble really crisp and full of Brio. The cello in particular had a rich Tortelier like timbre. They also look as if they are really having fun, which avoids the whole show looking too serious. Their Bizet was also full of zippy energy.” – George Scott, Birthday Party, Queen’s House, London
Prices start from £500 for a duo. The girls can play 2 x 45 minutes as a duo and up to 3 x 45 minutes as a string quartet.
