This group of four musicians (violin, violin, viola, cello) has a wonderfully rich sound and access to an extensive and varied repertoire. It’s the perfect choice for larger events. The Apollo Strings quartet is debatably the most traditional of the Apollo ensembles and is in high demand throughout the year to perform across the UK at events from award ceremonies to weddings and private parties.
String Trio for Hire
The Apollo Strings Trio (violin, viola, cello) is the most popular of all our ensembles and retains much of the warmth of the quartet while maintaining the intimacy of a duo. It has an impressively diverse repertoire which is continually being broadened in response to client requests. The Apollo Strings members who make up our trios are accustomed to performing at all kinds of events.
String Orchestra for Hire
An all-enveloping warmth and richness filling your venue with sound. Our string orchestra can feature anywhere between 6 and 20 Apollo Strings members. The size of the orchestral ensemble enables great flexibility in terms of repertoire and has an auditory power all its own. Please feel free to contact us to discuss your bespoke booking further.
Harpist for Hire
The Apollo Harpists are first-class performers, having played with The BBC Symphony Orchestra, English National Opera, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and pop artists such as Kanye West, Barry Manilow and Beyoncé.
