23 July 2011 – Miller/Nezafati Wedding – Ashton Gardens

July 24, 2011 by david

Four Strings provided a string quartet for this wedding at Ashton Gardens in Corinth, TX. The picture above is from the balcony where the musicians perform, which provides both a fine view and extraordinary acoustics. The wedding chapel, with its tall windows and wooded surroundings, provides the ambience of an outdoor wedding, but with none of the risks of July in Texas!

The music for the ceremony was classical and traditional, perfectly matched to the setting and ceremony.

Sun King | Beatles | String Quartet

December 11, 2009 by david

sun king – beatles | arranged for string quartet

Just finished a string quartet cover of “Sun King” from the Beatles‘ Abbey Road album – another in a series of covers for a Beatles-themed wedding. Some of the later, odder material from the band actually translates the most convincingly to the string quartet. A sample:

And for variety, a fully orchestrated (and substantially altered) version from All This and World War II (vocals by the Bee Gees).
