“We hired Rose and Archie to play a violin duet at our wedding, and they were absolutely incredible! Communication was great leading up to the wedding with emails, messages and phone calls. We sent them the music we wanted, and they composed it THEMSELVES perfectly. They played exactly how we envisioned our wedding to sound like. As soon as we heard the violins, we wanted to cry… in fact had to hold back our tears haha. Their performance was so beautiful it made our guests cry too, and everyone was talking about how amazing they sounded. I asked for a lot, and they truly delivered. Their music has even inspired my friends to want violins at their weddings now! Rose and Archie are an easy-going, talented duo. We recommend 100000%!!! Thank you both for giving our wedding a beautiful start.”

We couldn’t have asked for a better string quartet for our wedding. Passione Quartet were incredibly professional, easy-going, and flexible from start to finish. I made quite a few last-minute changes, and they were nothing but supportive, calm, and accommodating throughout the whole process. Their music was beautiful and added so much elegance and emotion to our day. They made everything feel effortless and stress-free, which is exactly what you need on your wedding day. I highly recommend Passione Quartet to anyone looking for talented musicians who are also genuinely lovely to work with.

Many thanks for the co-ordination of our musicians for our Jubilee on Friday. We had just so many positive comments and feedback, and their music really elevated the event and was a wonderful opportunity for children to actually see where music comes from!
