Diamond String Quartet
Act fee £500 to £795
The Diamond String Quartet was founded by graduates of Britain's top music colleges. Our shared passion for chamber music allowed us to acquire an extensive repertoire and to gain experience in providing live music for all kinds of events, ranging from weddings, civil partnerships, parties and corporate functions to band music, sessions, and TV.
Their repertoire ranges from baroque to pop and covers nearly every imaginable genre in between. They regularly play for events in London and the Southeast but are willing to travel anywhere within the UK. We are also active on the concert platform, performing public recitals in London and the Southeast.
