Lovely feedback from our Netball Australia Dinner at Parliament House, Canberra (String Quartet)

Hi Lucie,

I just want to say a huge THANK YOU to the musicians on Saturday evening. They were absolutely fantastic.

The background music was a lovely addition in the Marble Foyer for pre-dinner drinks and the background music throughout the main breaks in the Great Hall made for a great evening.

The musicians were great to work with and please pass on my appreciation for their flexibility as any good awards evening we were not on time from the beginning so break times changed throughout the night.

We look forward to using Stringspace for any future events.

Kind regards,

Melanie

String Duo for the Murdoch University School of Law. This is a repeat booking for us.

Stringspace string quartet performed at the Prime Minister’s private Christmas Party at Kirribilli House, Sydney.

Three on-stage performances for the 2014 InterNational Chinese Film Festival. These performances included a 5-minute female violinist show with a very spacey backing track of Pachelbel, Bittersweet Symphony and Summer from the 4 Seasons.

Every year we perform a mix of Christmas and pop tunes for one week in the entrance foyer of Chifley Tower.

Today we had a solo cellist performing at Albert Hall in Canberra, and string quartets performing in both Sydney and Melbourne.

Here’s a lovely testimonial from our Melbourne wedding:

“I just want to say how amazing your musicians were last Saturday at my daughter’s wedding at St Andrew’s in Brighton.

Please pass on to them my sincere gratitude, everyone at the wedding absolutely loved them, they were flawless!

Thanks to you also for being so lovely through the booking process. You made it all so easy for us.

Having your strings there made the whole ceremony magical, without it the ceremony would not have been the same. The church is quite big and cold and the music just made it feel warm and wonderful. I cannot praise them enough really.

Once again, thank you so much for all your assistance. I will surely recommend Stringspace to my family and friends if they ever need to hear some beautiful violins and cello!” Michelle.
