We are having a wonderful time playing together at beautiful venues across Cheshire and Staffordshire.  Also, "Bridgerton" Themed parties are proving to be very popular and we have delighted many guests with our wonderful renditions and arrangements from Netflix series.

Welcome to our web site for Quartet Cabaret.  We are delighted you have found us. Let us introduce ourselves...

We are qualified string specialists providing wonderful string music for every special occasion. We play as a string quartet, solo violin or as a string duo known as The Elbow Swingers for wedding ceremonies, civil partnership ceremonies, wedding receptions, parties, and corporate events. We even perform at care homes throughout the North West and love to entertain the residents. We have had the wonderful opportunity to perform at beautiful wedding venues throughout Cheshire and Staffordshire and throughout the North West and most recently we are playing with the wonderfully talented Northern Soul band Soul Brothers Syndicate and touring the North West with sell out shows in theatres.

We are dedicated to providing the very best quality and variety of string music including all musical genres to suit all tastes and to appeal to all ages. From baroque to rock and pop, classical to jazz and RnB we hope to create the perfect wedding entertainment with a touch of sparkle to accompany and compliment any occasion.

Please call us for a quote and we can save your date for you in our diaries.

We hope you enjoy browsing through our pages and look forward to meeting you this year!
