String Quartets Servicing London and Southern England
The Sacconi String Quartet
The Sacconi String Quartet performs regularly at a variety of functions, many of them weddings and corporate events in London and South East.
On 20th December 2001 the Sacconi String Quartet performed to HM The Queen and forty members of the Royal Family at the Royal Family's Christmas Lunch at Buckingham Palace. The Quartet were complimented by HM The Queen, HRH Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother and HRH Prince Charles.
One of last season's other highlights was
performing in the entrance of Elton John's house in Windsor, for his annual
White Tie and Tiara Ball. During the event the quartet was filmed and
subsequently appeared on Mick Jagger's recent documentary Being Mick. The
quartet also performed for the Ferrari Owners Club Summer Ball, hosted by Cheryl
Baker of Bucks Fizz.
Also last season, the quartet entertained
David Trimble, Northern Ireland First Minister, Dame Betty Boothroyd, and other
senior politicians at a dinner at the Houses of Parliament.
Other highlights have included playing for HRH Prince Michael at Leeds Castle,
and playing at the UK premiere of the film Hilary and Jackie at the
Barbican Centre in London.
Playing much loved classics mixed with more popular pieces such as Gershwin's I Got Rhythm and The Verve's Bitter Sweet Symphony. We can always find music to suit a particular taste.
Providing appropriate music for all
occasions, from background music to formal concert performances.
