We have achieved a level of versatility in performance that enables us to play as soloists, chamber artists, and orchestral musicians. Our violinist and cellist also offer solo bookings if that is your preference. Please be sure to listen to our sound demos for a sample of the varieties we offer.What makes the Briar Rose Quartet even more unique is that we have played together for several years and possess the silent communication skills and unity of style necessary to create performances of the highest caliber. We have provided music for every kind of special occasion including corporate events, funerals, cocktail or dinner parties, and we specialize in providing music for weddings. We know that your wedding is a unique event and we can create just the atmosphere you desire -- classical, folk, elegant, swing, ragtime, pop, religious, or any shade in between. Additionally, we welcome specific musical request to make the moment yours, such as accompaniment for a special soloist who you would like to perform, or a simple melody to invite quiet contemplation during the ceremony.

Our daughter's wedding day was frustrating due to heavy rains the past 24 hours, and predicted to rain all day. Since this was suppose to be a garden wedding and such a dreary forecast, we decided around noon to move the ceremony to the reception site. We tried to notify everyone of the change. About an hour before start time the radar showed a break in the rain, expected to last about 2 hours. So we frantically set up in the garden and sent someone to the recption site to inform the caterers and Briar Rose of the change. The strings were setting up when we asked them to move back to our home -- and they hustled to get here and set up for gathering music while we were still finishing the setup.
Our Daughter and her fiance had requesting rather unusual music for the ceremony. Briar Rose was extremely accommodating in developing/ adapting the sheet music we had provided for their own arrangments. The couple had asked for the score from the movie "Amilee" for the Unity Candle lighting and "Star Wars: The Throne Room" for the recessional. We heard quite a few complements on the music, and many happily surprised guests when they realized they were hearing "Star Wars"!
Briar Rose was also engaged to play for the cocktail hour at the reception. Family photos took longer than expected, so we missed most of their music at the other site. But we heard nothing but good things from the guests. One of our guests is from France who actually makes violins -- he was quite impressed with Briar Rose, especially with all the dampness in the air. Fortunately they were able to pack their instruments and depart before the next deluge began.
Briar Rose certainly helped to make the wedding a really special day. I would readily recommend Briar Rose to anyone planning a special event!
