A variety of available ensembles...
String Quartet (2 violins, viola and cello)
By far the most versatile, this ensemble offers a very full sound and a wide variety of repertoire ranging from Classical (Mozart, Haydn and Beethoven) to Romantic (Dvorak and Tchaikovsky) to waltzes by Strauss, Rags by Joplin and Broadway tunes by Bernstein.

String Trio (2 violins and cello)
The sound of this ensemble is lighter in character, but warm nevertheless. The exquisite repertoire derives mainly from the Baroque (Handel,Telemann and Vivaldi) and Classical (Mozart and Haydn) eras. We also have some exclusive arrangements for more popular tunes.

String Duo (2 violins, or violin and cello)
This sound is very intimate and it is ideal for very small gatherings. The repertoire is refreshing, but not mainstream. Mozart and Haydn anchor the available repertoire, while it also draws on works by lesser-known but accomplished composers.
