DESCRIPTION:
Millington Strings performs most often as a string quartet (clients occasionally request a duo or even a solo performer and we do our best to accommodate a client's needs, although the repertoire is not as wide-ranging as for the quartet). While we frequently perform the more usual classical string quartet literature, we also perform a wide and eclectic repertoire, ranging from ragtime, blues and jazz to opera favorites, to pop and rock music from the 40's to the 80's.
Two of our performers are also composer/arrangers, and this contributes to the unusual and uniquely wide-ranging repertoire of Millington Strings.

Great musicianship combined with a sense of openness to all styles of music in a non-begrudging manner not usually found in the classical world. They simply exhibit a love of music. Completely accomodating!
