"I just wanted to say thank you very much to you all for making my brothers wedding such a special day. I was so pleased with the music and would highly reccommend you all to everyone I meet.

"We engaged The Manchester String Quartet to play at a National Trust donor event at Lyme Park this autumn. From an event coordinators perspective I would like to highlight how easy and accommodating the quartet were to deal with before the event. They were keen to understand the purpose of the evening and interpreted our requirements very well on the night.
The quartet played with real character and our guests commented through out the evening on how much they enjoyed the music and that it really enhanced their experience of the setting. We will definitely be using them for future events at National Trust properties."
Aletta Welensky, National Trust.
