BWSQ String Quartet

The string quartet is our most popular ensemble, featuring two violins, a viola, and a cello. Not only does it fill most rooms, but it also creates an elegant musical atmosphere for any event. Furthermore, this ensemble offers a rich, harmonious sound, which enhances the ambiance of a variety of occasions and gatherings.

BWSQ String Trio

The string trio, which features one violin, one viola, and one cello, is an excellent choice for smaller events. Not only does it create an intimate and personal experience, but it also offers a beautiful balance of harmony and elegance. Moreover, this ensemble delivers warm and vibrant music that not only enhances the atmosphere but also deeply engages attendees.

BWSQ String Duet

CHelō is by far our most unique ensemble. Not only does it feature two cellos, but it also provides a more personal musical experience compared to larger ensembles. Furthermore, the timbre of two cellos blends beautifully together, creating a delightfully exclusive and delicate atmosphere that is perfect for special occasions.

A duet with one violin and one cello is also available

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The black and white string quartet was amazing at our wedding! Tamra was so professional to work with, and we were able to really handpick and curate a whole vibe for the ceremony and cocktail hour that really came out exactly as we’d hoped if not better. When it comes to quality string performance, I was a bit picky, as a former violist myself — these folks did not have an off note or squealy sound all night, it was crisp and on point. We had our guests head bobbing to blink 182 while getting seated, crying to married life from up during the processional, bawling their eyes out to can’t help fallin in love as I came down the aisle, and delighted by gangsta’s paradise in the cocktail hour 💁🏻‍♀️. A 10/10 would recommend!

Their setlist options are quite diverse and were able to accommodate our needs for the big day.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tamra was one of two cellists I hired to play for my boss's proposal dinner. From planning to execution, I don't know of a thing we'd change! Tamra was accommodating to our plans and she and her cello partner played a beautiful part of this once in a lifetime proposal. My boss said "The cellists were great. They had a ton of songs to choose from, and were very sweet. 5 star review".
