String Quartets in the West Midlands

Book string quartets and ensembles anywhere in the West Midlands

The West Midlands covers a lot of ground, from Shrewsbury, Malvern, Edgbaston, Warwick, Lichfield and Kenilworth. Our string quartets and ensembles travel right across the region, so wherever your wedding or event is, you'll find acts on this page who already know the venues, the roads and the local crowds. They're booked for ceremonies, drinks receptions and wedding breakfasts.

Across Birmingham, Coventry, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Warwickshire and Worcestershire, the string quartets and ensembles listed here play ceremonies, drinks receptions and wedding breakfasts. Use the area links lower down if you'd like a list narrowed to one part of the West Midlands.

From Davenport House and Abbey Hotel to The Grand Hotel Birmingham, Lea Marston Hotel, Middleton Hall and St Mary's Guildhall, the venues across the West Midlands range from grand country houses to barns, hotels and city spaces. Our acts are used to adapting to all of them.

Not every string quartet does the same job. Within this category you'll find string quartets, trios and duos playing classical pieces and pop arrangements, and knowing the feel you want for your wedding or event makes the choice much easier.

“Thank you to all the girls in the quartet for their contribution to Rachel and Timothy's wedding celebrations. They certainly will have many happy memories of their special day. Thanks to you all.”

“We had the Anatole Quartet play at our wedding and we can't recommend them enough. Dan was incredibly helpful and professional and nothing was too much trouble. An example of this was when they learnt how to play one of the Star Wars tunes to play during the ceremony, which went down exceptionally well with all our guests. They were a great addition to our wedding and we wouldn't hesitate to use them again.”

“Jane was an excellent communicator in the lead up to the wedding. They were punctual and accommodating of our requirements. She arranged songs specifically for us at our request and most importantly - all of the songs sounded fantastic. We and our guests really enjoyed having Jane and her quartet play at our wedding.”

“What can we say, “Thank you so much for your performance, it was all that we expected and so much more”. We will recommend the “Anatole String Quartet” to all and have passed a few short videos on to others who weren’t present, their comments are delightful, thank you so much for making our special gathering a success with your presence.”

“We booked The Anatole Quartet for our gala dinner on the last night of an international conference. They complimented Queen’s college perfectly and delighted our guests with their mix of classic and modern music. The booking process was easy and they were great to work with.”
