M.A.S. Music or Capriccio Ensemble??
I would really appreciate feedback anyone might have about these two vendors. I haven't read anything bad about either one and I'm torn as to which I should choose! Any advice/suggestions/comments???
For brides that have used a violinist, is one violin enough or do you need two?
TIA!!

i haven't used either, sorry, but i wanted to comment that the choice between 1 or 2 violinists would really depend on the music you select. if there's a part for the 2nd violin it could definitely add a little more fullness to the music, but if there isn't and both violins are playing the same thing then there's no real added value (from what i can see) other than the violins may overpower the other instruments. i would say one violin is enough...but that's just my opinion...

Re: M.A.S. Music or Capriccio Ensemble??
hi! i used capriccio ensemble for my wedding--we had a string trio. i spoke with both M.A.S. and capriccio--and had the same problem as you in deciding between them!
in the end i chose Capriccio becaused i got along so well with Natalie and clicked better with her than Marie. you can read my review for more info on Capriccio--but i have nothing but GREAT things to say about them. they were wonderful
as per your question about # of violinists...that can depend on a few things. the type of arrangment/music you want can make a difference if you need 1, 2, 3 or even 4 musicians. also, it can depends on the size of the room and the acoustics.
any other q's, feel free to FM me.
