January and February are usually fairly quiet  months for Highly Strung Quartet but this year has been a bit of an exception. We started the year with four weddings in January and February had four corporate events in store plus a rather romantic wedding at the beautiful Thrumpton Hall.

Three of our performances were open to the public and it was great to meet clients past, present and future in Nottingham at the Galleries of Justice, the Victoria Centre and the Broadmarsh Centre.

63 more engagements booked in for the rest of 2015 and 9 bookings for 2016 already.

A busy Highly Strung is a happy Highly Strung :-)

We are excited to announce that we will be performing at the Talbot Hotel Wedding Fayre in Oundle on Sunday 22nd February. We will be playing between 11am and 1pm and it would be lovely to meet potential Brides and Grooms and play your requests.

With the new weather we are experiencing it feels like our summer wedding season is over! We have 3 more weddings this month, a few autumn weddings next month and then we are suddenly into Christmas weddings and events. We love playing seasonal repertoire and there is something rather special about having a Christmas Carol in for church weddings in place of a hymn. Please click on our Christmas repertoire to find out what we have.

We are very pleased to announce that Highly Strung is having their next HEAR US LIVE session on Saturday 11th October 2014 at Granvilles in Stone, Staffordshire. Granvilles is widely regarded as being Staffordshire’s best know live music venue.

Calling all brides & grooms (new & old!!), clients, colleagues, family and friends to come along and hear us play – and why not request a song….

We will be playing 1pm-2.30pm and we will be free to talk to you afterwards.

We have recently updated the trio repertoire on our website – check for new additions which include Feeling Good, Halo, Con te Partiro, Diamonds and I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing.

We have 2 weddings this weekend – the long awaited wedding of Nat & Adam at Goosedale and a summer Saturday wedding at Ringwood Hall.

Hope this beautiful weather holds :-)

We have just finished a busy weekend of weddings – a beautifully intimate wedding at the George in Stamford on Friday, a wedding at Malmaison in Birmingham on Saturday and a wedding (plus a groom’s 60th birthday) on Sunday at the Priest House in Castle Donington.

The rest of the month is equally as busy for the quartet with weddings at the West Retford Hotel, a few weddings at Mosborough Hall, Ardencote Manor, Swinfen Hall, Morley Hayes and a reception for a clinical society at Nottingham University.

Calling all brides and grooms, family, friends…..

Highly Strung will be playing our first ever ‘Hear us Live’ dates at the Old Theatre Deli in Southwell 10.30am-12pm on Saturday 24th May.

Come along to listen and feel free to give us requests….

We look forward to seeing you

Well the sun is shining (on some days!) and wedding season is upon us.

Highly Strung Quartet and Trio are looking forward to weddings this month at venues including Tom Brown’s (a fantastic Brasserie in a Victorian school house setting), Stubton Hall (a 19th century country house in acres of countryside) and Kilworth House (this grade II listed building has a theatre, a splendid orangery and 38 acres of woodland and parkland).

Highly Strung have plenty of new music for 2014 including some new Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars and Christina Perri songs.
