Autumn 2010, Updates, Showcases, Concerts!
Enjoying the beautiful fall foliage?
It's been great to see all the great colors of fall!
Our performances have included:
10/6/10: At the invitation of Tammy DeVito, Catering Manager we participated
in The Fall Bridal Show held at the Pelham Split Rock Golf Club on Shore Rd, in the Bronx.
Our String Trio had a wonderful time there performing classical music as well as songs by the Beatles, U2, and Led Zeppelin!
We met several lovely brides and grooms including Yvette and Steven whom we will
perform for on 9/25/11 at Villa Barone Manor in the Bronx and
Marissa whom we will perform for on 10/09/11 at the Glen Island Harbour Club.
Thank you to all who stopped by to speak to us and for all the great feedback!
10/9/10, the Wedding Ceremony and Cocktail Hour of Marlana and Justin (a member of the military) held at Tarrytown House Estate. A beautiful day for a beautiful couple. The weather held up perfectly with temperatures in the 70's and not a cloud in the sky!
Our String Quartet performed "Danza Pastorale" for the entrance of Family, the Groom and Groomsmen, followed by "November Rain" by Guns n Roses for the entrance of the Bridesmaids, and "Canon in D" for Marlana, escorted by her Father.
We mixed it at the end with the opening strains of "Trumpet Voluntary" (Clarke) flowing right into "Bittersweet Symphony" by the Verve.
At the cocktail hour we performed vintage songs from the 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's. Many guests complimented the quartet and were applauding after hearing songs they knew and loved!
10/10/10, the Wedding Ceremony of Jennifer and Matt held at Le Chambord in Hopewell Junction NY. Again a picture perfect day with temperatures holding well in the mid to uppser 60's.
I performed as a Violin Soloist for their wedding ceremony. The bride was stunning in a cream colored gown. The venue was modeled after the mansion used in the vintage fil, "Gone with With the Wind" and was really charming.
the staff was very nice, kind and helpful.
I performed "Canon in D" by Pachelbel for the bridal party and "Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring" for Jennifer's entrance.
For the Recessional music, I performed my own arrangement of
"Ode to Joy" by Beethoven flowing into "All You Need is Love" and concluded with a few more up beat Beatles songs including "I Want Hold Your Hand" and "When I'm 64".
As I was travelling with my husband that day we concluded the day with a game of billiards and a fabulous dinner in Chappaqua at an Italian restaurant with both know and love.
On 10/18/10 our Duet of Violin and Cello performed at an "Everything Bridal" show held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in White Plains. It was a small and intimate show and very pleasant to participate in.
My recommendation here is that if you are on a budget, the Duet of Violin and Cello works wonderfully as it gives you the melody as warmly performed by a violinist with the bass notes of accompaniment by the cello. The sound is not as full perhaps as a string quartet (4 musicians) or string trio however it is a beautiful as well as very blending sound.
Future performances:
10/23/10 at the Bedford Post Inn, Bedford, NY: String Trio for the Ceremony
of Victoria and Jae. Their wedding music will be
"Here Comes the Sun" by the Beatles and "Come as You Are" by Nirvana

10/23/10 at the Riviera of Massapequa: Trio of Violin, Flute, Cello
performs at a Ceremony for "High Society Rhythm". All classical selections

heavenly duo of Harp and Violin. We will begin performing at 5:45 PM.
