Alex, the person with whom we had contact in arranging the pieces was very accomodating and offered good advice about selections. The trio we hired was terrific and accomodated to playing outside when the wedding was moved to a beach. We were entirely pleased. I recommend Art-Strings ensemble to anyone interested in fine music and a responsive group leader.

Absolutely wonderful! Art Strings made our day even more special. They worked with us on appropriate, beautiful music to remember my husband's mother who had recently passed away. I can't even put into words how much we loved their performance and professionalism.

As a wedding gift for my father, I hired the Art-Strings Ensembles to play during his ceremony and throughout his reception. I was extremely nervous because I had never used gigmaster before but I had NOTHING to worry about the string quartet was amazing! They were professional, punctual, and were VERY talented. They added so much class to his big day! You will NOT be disappointed, they are fabulous musicians who will go above and beyond to accommodate you and will undoubtedly make your event extra special. I will recommend them to everyone and I look forward to hiring them for future events.

Art Strings was exactly what we wanted for our wedding. They are extremely talented, a complete joy to listen to. Other than 2 songs, we didn't have specific selections we wanted played, and left it up to Alex, who did a wonderful job. Our guests commented on how wonderful an addition the music was to the whole day. We definitely recommend Art Strings to anyone looking for an elegant addition to a secial event. They're fantastic!

Alexander and his group were excellent! Our outside wedding ceremony could only be complete with the beautiful music that the Art Strings provided. Thanks for a great performance! Being the bride, I did not get to listen to most of the prelude music however my guests and my husband were all very impressed with their talent. I definately reccomend the Art Strings to people looking for a talented, friendly and accomodating group of musicians.

Art-Strings Ensembles were excellent! I couldn't have been happier. They were accommodating to my last-minute request to adjust the time frames, they arrived on-time and professionally dressed, and the music was beautiful. They even provided a little extra entertainment with an ethnic folk dance! If you're looking for a string quartet for your event, look no further - these are the people to do it!

From the beginning to the end, working with Art-Strings Ensembles was an absolute pleasure. The director provided much needed guidance throughout the selection of music. All the guests loved their music selection! Overall, we were very happy with their performance. Could not have asked for more highly trained musicians!

I would like to thank you for the beautiful job of performing at our wedding. We had so many compliments for the music played awaiting the ceremony. It was the perfect extra touch of class that I wanted for the ceremony. I will definitely recommend you to others. 
Leanora & Angelo Rivera - Yonkers, NY

Alexander,
I think the pianist and violinist did a great job and we both received many positive responses from our guests. I was skeptical when Maura suggested us to use a violinist/pianist, but it was a very nice part of the ceremony and fit perfectly into a beautiful day at a beautiful location. I would recommend Art Strings to anyone inquiring about musicians for their wedding.
Thank you!

Hello Alexander,

We just wanted to thank you so much for the beautiful music played at our wedding ceremony.
We received so many compliments on your performance from all of our guests. I only heard a few songs but I wish I could have heard more but I was not allowed to go outside prior to walking in with my father. Once again we commend you for the elegant performance and would highly recommend you to other newlyweds. I will also keep your information in case I need to hire a classical performer with the utmost talent - both your violin and pianist were fabulous and we wanted to thank you for making our day absolutely perfect!!!!
Thanks again and best of luck to you and "Art Strings"  in your future endeavors.

Jacquelyn and Philip Ferro - Eatontown, NJ

Dear Alexander,
I was very pleased with the string trio's performance at the wedding. Each piece flowed into the next one in such a seamless way. Thank you for playing. I didn't get the chance to hear the pieces you played as guests were coming in, but I did here the Bach Air piece, Pachelbel's Canon, Simon Tov Mazel Tov and Vivaldi's Autumn. They were absolutely perfect for the mood that I think my brother and his wife wanted: romantic, tranquil and warm. Thanks again,
Laura Gourdine - New York, NY

 

Alexander,
Your group was outstanding!! Dave and I were very impressed. Michele (Spinning Wheel Banquet Coordinator) had told us the night before at our rehearsal that your group was fantastic--she remembered that you had played there a few weeks before. In addition, several guests commented to us, and some more to my parents, about how wonderful your performance was.  We thank you very much for making our special day that much better!
Best,
Heather Fink - New York, NY
