We are all Conservatory players/graduates and our company is hired for over 90 events a year.

We are among some of the best active string players in New York and love what we do very much.

Transportation is no issue. We all have cars and almost always travel together to arrive on time to events.

Please contact me if you have any questions- Look forward to working with you.
