Kathryn and Neil were a pleasure to work with and they did everything to fit our unusual choice of songs into the play list.
Thank you

Thank you so much to Sonore for playing at our wedding. One of my favourite memories was having our photos taken, looking over the grounds and seeing our friends and family enjoying the music. It felt like a film and added such a special touch to our day. More...

thank you so much for playing at our wedding. Many chin wobbling, tear-jerking moments were shared and we must give credit and recognition to Kathryn and Neil for evoking such strong emotions through their music. The weather was perfect on the day and having them play in the background during the outdoor drinks reception simply topped it off. The guests complimented on the variety of song choices, especially Toxic by Britney Spears 😂, we love how personalised it was and your presence definitely made such an impact! More...

We got married in January after a few postponements! And we could honestly not recommend Sonore enough. Kathryn was a joy to deal with, she responded to my emails the same day and was so helpful with all the changing dates. The actual day was wonderful, we got so many people saying how amazing they were and that they loved the song choices. Honestly the best day and I cannot thank Sonore enough! ❤️ More...

Wow! What can I say? I don’t think any words I write will do justice for just how incredible Sonore string quartet are and how special they made our wedding on the 18. 12.21 at Claridges. From start to finish they have been so warm, friendly and professional. They are extremely organised and keep on top of everything from booking, to song selections, to the running of the day and all the logistics. They made everything so easy and I had no stress or worry from the moment I booked I knew they were going to be amazing and they were. Everyone on the day could not compliment them enough they are extremely talented musicians. If you want to make your wedding or event special then Sonore are for you! I will definitely be rebooking, I could listen to them play all day! Thank you so much Sonore String quartet it was truly a pleasure to meet you all and listen to you play. Best wishes, Eloise x More...

Really lovely people - showed up well in advance ready to go with a great attitude and an even better talent! Really made the whole event more enjoyable and classy. Thank so much.

Thank you so much for playing at our wedding. From the moment we booked you in 2019, you have been brilliant- keeping in contact throughout Covid and learning new pieces of music so we could hear them during our day. Being able to dance to a string version of Under the Bridge by Red Hot Chili with my new hubby was an incredible moment for the both of us. Our guests have all commented on how amazing you were and the range of different genres that you played during your 5 hours with us. The ambience of your music definitely enhanced the day and we would love to consider you for other events that could suit a trio or recommend you to friends. More...

I could not recommend Sonore enough!! I contacted Kathryn very last minute and from the first call I knew I was in safe hands. Repertoire is so broad and so much popular songs which you wouldn’t expect for a string trio. They went above and beyond and even got sheet music for a song I requested. Everyone was commenting on how super they were. Communication was perfect! Thank you again!! More...

Couldn’t recommend more. Lovely people, amazing music. Sat outside in the cold playing for us to enable our wedding to be COVID secure. Thank you so much Sonore!

Thank you for your kind words and many congratulations once again. We really loved playing for you and so looking forward to your celebrations next year.

They're very versatile across just about any musical genre and are also lovely people who are patient and nice to deal with. They played at my 65th birthday celebration and guests told me afterwards that some of them really enjoyed playing 'name that tune'! Unfortunately, because of space limitations at the venue I could only book two of them (a violinist and a cellist) but they more than made up for this by managing to sound like a full orchestra. Struck exactly the right balance of music choices and volume to be enjoyable without being too obtrusive and definitely made a big difference to the evening. Thoroughly recommend them for any event, they gave mine 100%+ in every way! More...

I had the pleasure of working with these talented musicians at a wedding in Provence; I was blown away by them. As a celebrant I've worked with many string quartets, and Sonore String Quartet is by far the best. Thank you for your music!

Simply put, these guys are amazing! Do not hesitate to book them. They played at our wedding a few weeks ago and we had so so many compliments from our guests. Their repertoire is so eclectic and they played classical as well as all our modern favourites. They tailored the song list to include mine, my husbands and my Dads favourites as well which was very much appreciated. Thank so much once again xx More...

Sonore String Quartet performed at our wedding on Saturday 4th May 2019 in Shrewsbury and we couldn’t be happier! They played as our guests arrived, the ceremony and reception drinks. From the initial enquiry we were extremely happy with the personal service we received from Kathryn, responses were helpful and quick - even when we were delayed ourselves. We took a while to decide on our song choices, but Kathryn and the rest of the group were very accommodating and played a huge range of styles for us, from a suggestion from the grooms grandad to learning a song especially for the groom (Final Fantasy sound track) which he absolutely loved for before the ceremony. On to classical and modern pop for the rest. Even though the sun was shining the air was cold being an outdoor ceremony but they all played through it like troopers to enable us to have our dream ceremony. Once again, a huge thank you to all of you in Sonore String Quartet for making the journey to be a part of our wedding day, both the two of us and our guests LOVED having you there and listening to you play. We highly recommend booking with Sonore for any event with their diverse repertoire, skills and great personal service. Thank you again! Anna & Lewis (Mr & Mrs Haydon!) xx More...

Sonore strings were one of the biggest highlights of our wedding. Communication leading up to the event were always immediate. They were able to put together special requests and most importantly played absolutely perfectly on the day. So much so it made the bride (me) cry and we received several comments from our friends and family that the strings made the ceremony so special. The guys were so flexible before and during the day, a dream to work with. Very highly recommended More...
