Music Repertoire List

The following list of music selections is our standard repertoire. We recommend taking all music selections for your event from this list. We will be happy to perform music not on the repertoire list, however, the client must provide the sheet music, and it must be written for string quartet. As of 9/1/2007, we no longer arrange music originally written for other instrumental combinations (including piano). Please see the Frequently Asked Questions section of our website for more details. For selections with audio samples, see our Music Samples page. Please note that selection availability is subject to change without notice.
