Strelitzia is a professional string quartet located within the North of England. All musicians are graduates of the prestigious Royal Northern College of Music. Since 2002 the quartet has performed for around 40 Weddings, functions and events each year. They can cater to a broad range of musical tastes and can perform music ranging from Baroque/Classical to Pop/Jazz and Bollywood. They are happy to give suggestions for music choices and talk through any ideas you may have. The dress code is dinner or black suits for the men and all black for the ladies.
As well as performing for Weddings and Civil Partnerships, Strelitzia's corporate clients include Yamaha, Yorkshire Bank, Ernst & Young and Manchester United.
