Ceremony music

Does anyone have any suggestions for places to book string ensembles for the ceremony?

If you have booked one...was it at a reasonable price? I'm looking for a 3-4 piece string ensemble.

Thanks!!

Re: Ceremony music

We are using Sterling Music Ensemble

Sample CD sounds great, good reputation, easy to work with so far. Their price runs about average.

ETA: We are having a string trio(violin, viola, cello) for $200 each musician per hour.

Re: Ceremony music

I am using Arnie Gruber who was referred to me by Oheka. He is extremely reliable. His number is 658-3314. We are having two violins, piano, flute/saxophone, bass, and trumpet. The price seemed very reasonable.

Re: Ceremony music

I just found this:

The Brooklyn Conservatory Find-A-Musician service - $100 per person, per hour.

'From classical soloists to jazz orchestras, the Conservatory has placed musicians, with such organizations as The New York Public Library, Queens Botanical Garden, Salvation Army and with Brooklyn Borough President Howard Golden. All musicians are experienced performers as well as educators. The cost is $100 per hour, per musician with a 20% fee against the total for the Conservatory.'
