The Exe Valley String Quartet are back....
What a weekend! More gigs, this time with the amazing Exe Valley String Quartet. Two quartet weddings in two days!
Well it has been a while but The Exe Valley String Quartet are back out there playing live music to real live people again. Two weddings in two days and both at the very beautiful Rockbeare Manor wedding venue. On Sunday 4th July we played for Chris and Becky's wedding. Becky walked in to Canon in D and then we played our brand new arrangement of Wildest Dreams (Bridgerton) by Taylor Swift which went down really well. Becky and Chris walked out to The Queen of Sheeba. We were also asked to put together a bespoke arrangement of Robert Miles 'Children' and the bride and groom had their own personal performance of this whilst sitting on the grand staircase. It's great to be back!
