ETRURIA STRING QUARTET
The String Quartet is composed of professional musicians who graduated from the Morlacchi Conservatory of Music in Perugia and Florence, and all of them boast excellent curricula. The goal of my string quartet is to bring music to every important moment of our lives. Consequently, our main activity involves giving concerts throughout Italy and around the world. We also organize important evenings and events such as wedding banquets, buffets and conventions with music performed live by professional musicians. And this is why I'm writing to you, dear bride and groom: by choosing us for your banquet, you can enjoy background music with classical, jazz and pop pieces performed live by string quartet.

And this is why I'm writing to you, dear bride and groom: by choosing us for your banquet, you can enjoy background music with classical, jazz and pop pieces performed live by string quartet.
We have an extensive repertoire ranging from the seventeenth century to the contemporary age. Our music can accompany you during the ceremony (civil or religious) as well as the reception, creating an exquisite setting for the most important day of your lives.
For civil weddings, in addition to the works listed below, during the wedding we can also play other works that are generally performed during the reception (dinner or supper), given that we do not have to deal with the clerical restrictions that apply to religious ceremonies.
We can help you plan a musical program providing you with the entire repertoire so that you can choose the best music for your wedding. We can also advise you about which works are permitted for Catholic or Protestant rites, as well as the choice of music in general and the melodies that best suit the style of your wedding reception and its location. When it comes to the music for your party, the choice is endless: we can cater this aspect to meet your specific tastes and budget.
If you are having a Roman Catholic wedding, please indicate 7 works. If you are having a civil ceremony (at the town hall) you should indicate 5 works. Below are the moments during the ceremony when the works will be performed.
