CLIENT FEEDBACK:
String Poets are talented and generous. Our memorial service at Wolftrap was a challenge as it included a classical set, a dove release and several secular pieces interspersed within a program. Extraodinary musicians and professionals, the String poets hit every challenging entry, page turn and pause.
As a modest singer, I would recommend String Poets to enhance any gig. They make you sound like a star. Their accompanment to Josh Groban piece ("To Where You Are") was straight from heaven.

The musicians took care to speak with me & email me before my wedding to check that everything was done as I liked, and they were early & already set up well before the time asked. Also, we put them through additional difficulties- first inside, then at the last moment, outside when the rain stopped, then even a little rain on their beautiful instruments while they played a lovely rendition of Ave Maria! Their professionalism was unshaken throughout this. And, all the music was beautiful! I highly recommend them!

The String Poets were able to come through for us on very short notice. Having never met them in person I was at first hesitant to book them, but after speaking to Radhi I comfortable I had make a good choice. We are very pleased with their performance during our ceremony. We couldn't possibly be happier. No reason for anyone to look any further than with the String Poets, you will not be disappointed in their professionalism, suggestions, or performance.
