WEDDINGS & SPECIAL EVENTS
DREAM the soundtrack to your special day; make it real with Strings at Hand by Collusion.
In whatever style, string music sets the tone for this memorable day, while the visual splendour of live classical instruments also adds a certain elegance. Classical music, a song personal to you, jazz standards or a pop favourites will make this the day you have been dreaming of. Choose a favourite that may not be on our repertoire list. We can make it happen for an extra small arrangement fee.
We places a strong emphasis on our quality, and engage some of Australia's finest professional musicians to ensure we deliver on our promise of quality, efficiency and professionalism.
From the richness of a string quartet, to the intimacy of our solo musicians, we have a variety of ensemble sizes to suit your special day.
The full volume and rich texture of a string quartet can not be surpassed. This is our premium ensemble, and our suggestion for larger weddings and outdoor events.
For when a string quartet might feel too grand, we have our premium string trio, which offers a more relaxed feeling without compromising on quality.
For intimate ceremonies and receptions our string duo offers quality and flexibility for smaller venues and budgets, while the solo violinist, or violin and piano/keyboard is perfect for bespoke indoor events.
You expect nothing but superb communication and well constructed documentation to assure that your hired service will operate without a glitch. We will deliver this to you.
With over 15 years experience providing Brisbane, the Gold and Sunshine Coasts with our quality string quartet for all occasions, we are the perfect choice to make your dream day a reality.
