What is the difference between booking a quartet and trio?

The main difference is the volume and fullness in the sound / texture. The trio will be less than the quartet because there is one less instrument but it will still sound great. Our trio repertoire isn’t as comprehensive as quartet so make sure you check our repertoire lists before making a decision. If you’re on a smaller budget, the trio is a more economical option.

Picking Songs for your Wedding / Event…

Posted on 15th April 201921st April 2019

Yesterday we played at the brilliant Norfolk and Suffolk Bride Magazine‘s Dunston Hall Wedding Show in Norwich and had a great time… … But one thing a couple (that ended up booking us) said, got us thinking. Interestingly, whilst she wanted to book us, he had been against the idea. He just didn’t think that […]

Kavolini have played many times at our wedding venue, Bressingham Hall and High Barn, over the last couple of years. Their ceremony and reception music is delightful and very varied. They are a great professional group to work with and I always recommend them to my wedding couples without hesitation. You can do no better than to book Kavolini for your wedding day.

Kavolini recently played three sets at our wedding. Each set varied slightly. The first a more traditional set, perfect for the ceremony. The second also had a vocalist. This was absolutely beautiful and added another dimension. The third had a modern alternative edge and was brilliant for welcoming our afternoon guests. The whole thing was perfect. They have such a large repertoire to choose from and their communication was brilliant. We would thoroughly recommend them.read more

Kavolini played at our Wedding in North Norfolk and were superb. They played classical pieces beautifully during our outdoor ceremony, showing great professionalism and flexibility to accommodate the placing preferences of the venue and registrar and time all the entrances. Then they had a great repertoire of popular pieces during our outdoor drinks reception that we and all our guests enjoyed hugely. Highly recommended!read more

Kavolini played for our wedding a couple of weeks ago. They played a beautiful set to welcome everyone into church and again for our drinks reception. But most noteworthy was their flexibility and professionalism in accompanying two vocal pieces sung by friends of mine. I would highly recommend this quartet- very talented, beautiful sound, but also extremely accommodating and very friendly from planning through to execution.Thank you so much Kavolini you made our day extra magical.read more

Kavaloni played at a VIP shopping night my company helped to organise at our local shopping centre. They were truly wonderful, completely changed the atmosphere of the centre and the highlight of the night! We are hoping to get them back for more events in our area in the future as we would love the opportunity to work with them again. Kavaloni are the perfect addition to any event!read more

I booked kavolini to play at the start of my wedding day; for guests arriving, walking down the aisle, and after the ceremony. First of all, they were a pleasure to deal with. Very easily contactable, prompt replies and very helpful. On the day they arrived on time, were adaptable to an unexpected change of plan on the day, were professional, and played absolutely beautifully. I had many many compliments from my guests to say how fantastic they were. I couldn't have walked down the aisle to anything more perfect. They even learnt a new song for me. You will not regret booking kavolini, they are truly excellent.read more

My wife and I went to a wedding fair at Dunstun Hall in January 2018 to get inspiration for our wedding in December 2018. As soon as we heard Kavolini String Quartet our mouths dropped, they were superb and we were in no doubt that they would make our day. Also during the booking process it was amazing how varied their contemporary repertoire was, lots of choices to suit all tastes. On the day itself, they really set the tone for the ceremony and also for the reception. Everyone was in awe of them and the feedback we recieved from our guests was outstanding! The atmosphere the Kavolini String Quartet created for our wedding was exceptional and without doubt the best decision that we made for our big day. 10/10 I would highly recommend them to everyone, you will not regret it they are absolutely superb!!!read more

Highly talented and versatile quartet! Strings that will pull at your own heart strings when you hear their beautiful melodies They played at my son’s wedding in Eilean Donan Castle and the melodies haunted the ancient banqueting hall. Kavolini were the perfect choice with their mixture of old and modern melodies seamlessly intertwined with beautiful arrangements. This quartet can meet any challenge Such talent !read more

We had the Kavolini String Quartet play our wedding at the Norwich Cathedral back in August and they truly made our entire wedding day remarkable. From playing beautiful selections for our ceremony at the Octagon Unitarian Chapel, to playing a great mixture during an incredible cocktail hour at The Cloisters and then on to an unforgettable musical break-out at dinner at the Norwich Cathedral, they made each moment memorable. Kate worked diligently with us leading up to our big day to ensure we had exactly the right songs for each moment, with willingness to even learn new songs special to our relationship. When we chat with friends about their favorite part of the wedding, their memories undoubtedly include a piece that the Kavolini String Quartet made special. Thank you to the Kavolini String Quartet for helping to make our big day one that we will always remember 😍read more
