» Profile

Ariella Strings was established in 1999 by a group of conservatoire trained musicians. All the individual members work professionally throughout the United Kingdom and internationally. They play regularly in London, the home counties, Cambridgeshire, Northamptonshire and the Midlands.

Each member of Ariella Strings is a highly experienced and accomplished performer in their own right, within the quartet, trio, and also with other professional ensembles.

As well as playing for functions and weddings, Ariella Strings regularly give formal Chamber recitals in varying forms: String quartet, String Trio and also String Quintet.

The core of the group is the string trio which can be added to according to the taste of the individual and the event we are being booked for.

For all functions/anniversaries, birthday parties or other events, Ariella Strings offer a wide variety of musical styles, ranging from baroque to boogie woogie, Vivaldi to the Verve! They can add atmosphere and class to any occasion, be it a formal dinner or a buffet knees up!

If you want friendly, professional service then look no further. Ariella Strings pride themselves in offering a personal service and exceptional standards of playing.
