Strings For Your Heart (SFYH) was formed approximately 16 years by professional musicians. Since our inception, we have achieved an outstanding reputation throughout southern California. SFYH is a traditional string quartet composed of two violins, a viola, and a cello. However, SFYH also offers string trios, string duos, solo violinists, solo cellists, and string quintets. Since our inception, we have added our unique sense of poise and passion to create elegant and memorable occasions throughout southern California. From Baroque to Contemporary, Bach to The Beatles, we will work with you to create the air of distinction and style that you desire for your wedding or special event. In addition to performing regularly throughout southern California, we perform frequently in Temecula at the many wineries for weddings. We also enjoy performing in professional orchestras and do perform for TV shows, films, commercials, and recordings. We have worked with such celebrities as Jewel, Kenny G., David Newman, Hans Zimmer, Alan Menken, Richard Marvin, and Celine Dion. Our cellist has also written an impressive body of work for many Hollywood movies, but what we love to do most are weddings. Hence, I hope you consider us for your wedding or special event.

• Paul and the musicians who played at our wedding helped to make it the "perfect wedding"! Prior to the wedding, I was in touch with Paul to review music selections and suggestions. He was helpful to me with advice on timing and correct sequence of the ceremony music. I would highly recommend Strings for the Heart for any event that I needed musicians. They added that air of class and style to my wedding! I wish that I could get married again to hear the ceremony music! Thank you Strings from the Heart for helping me to create the exact wedding that I wanted! -- Teri W, Temecula, CA, 4/17/2009
