Response from Previous Clients:

"Rondo String Quartet performed at my reception in July, 2011, and I couldn't have been more pleased. The group has an incredibly beautiful sound that provided just the right background for conversation during the cocktail hour and dinner. The selection of pieces was superb, and very sensitive to the tastes of the hosts. The group is also a model of professionalism. I would recommend them without hesitation and was so happy that they performed."

"The Rondo String Quartet was so wonderful to work with, and created a beautiful ambiance for our wedding! Their song list is so extensive, they were even willing to learn a new song for us, that we specifically wanted played during our wedding ceremony. They were very promt to respond to e-mails and phone calls, and extremely professional. I absolutely recommend them, and would use them again!"

"What an amazing, professional, and marvelous string quartet!! We had the Rondo Quartet for our daughter's January wedding and the 1st hour of our Meadow Brook Hall reception. They arrived early, played stunningly and beautifully, and clearly provided the quintessentially perfect music for the wedding and the reception. Virtually everything I was promised was surpassed with class and style. I can't recommend these four talented professionals more sincerely!"

"My daughter was married June 25th 2011 at First English Lutheran Church in Grosse Pointe Woods, Michigan. Rondo String Quartet provided the music for the wedding ceremony. I cannot say enough good things about their kindness, their cooperation, their service, their punctuality, their professionalism, and above all, their beautiful, beautiful, music. Their music provided the perfect atmosphere of warmth, formality, and spirituality for my daughter's wedding ceremony."

• This is a fabulous group of talented and professional people! They sounded more beautiful than I could have imagined. We hired the Rondo String Quartet for our ceremony and cocktail hour. They were on time and were perfect with all of the timing at the ceremony. During the cocktail hour, they mixed it up a bit and played some jazzy pieces as well as some popular songs. Everyone loved them! I would highly recommend this group for any event! -- Maureen S, Rochester, MI, 10/29/2011
• From their professional timely correspondence to their gorgeous tunes--this quartet was a dream to work with! I am a musician, had a specific playlist in mind and an audience of tough critics, and I cannot sing Rondo String Quartet's praises enough. We requested last minute to have them play at our cocktail hour at the reception in addition to our ceremony, and they were very accommodating. I was especially grateful for how well they communicated before our event. As a bride with a million things to do in preparation, Allison set my mind at ease with her pleasant demeanor and complete knowledge of music for weddings. I will be recommending them in the future! -- Kristin S, Ann Arbor, MI, 9/4/2011
• The Rondo String Quartet made our wedding perfect. They made me feel confident that I had made the right choice for music right away. They were extremely professional, helpful, and kind. It made me feel good that they regularly play with the same four people. They also regularly rehearse - and it showed. They played beautifully! During our cocktail hour, the quartet entertained everyone by playing many different styles of music. It was fun to hear classical as well as Beatles, Coldplay, jazz, ... I received many compliments all day about the music. I would definitely recommend this quartet! -- Lynn W, Dearborn, MI, 1/9/2010
• Rondo String Quartet was perfect. The music selection was great, they added just the right of ambiance to the wedding. We had many comments about the music and how nice it was. I would recommend them to anyone. They were easy to work with and kept in touch as the wedding got closer. They were true professionals! -- Nancy F, Leonard, MI, 7/4/2009
• Wow! This quartet was amazing! They were wonderful to work with, had a huge repertoire, and played beautifully. I would give them more than 5's, if I could. I got so many compliments about them. I would highly recommend The Rondo String Quartet to anyone. Laura, September 20, 2008 -- L S, Rochester Hills, MI, 9/20/2008
