ADD: Strings to your Ceremony + Cocktail Hour from $750 - $1100+
To create a classic and beautiful atmosphere, you can add STRINGS to your Ceremony and/or Cocktail Hour!
While regularly performing a broad classical repertoire, our McGee string section have developed a reputation for their edgy renditions of modern works and pop/rock arrangements
Professionally trained musicians with national and international experience, our String players have performed with the likes of Queensland Symphony and Pops Orchestras, Queensland Theatre and Opera Queensland
What makes up a string Quartet /Trio / Duo?
A string quartet is made up of two violins, a viola and a cello. A trio consists of two violins and a cello and a duo is usually violin and cello. We highly recommend at least a trio if budget and space permits as the music really 'pops' with that third instrument!

SPECIAL REQUESTS
We have one of Australia’s largest music libraries, but there are millions of songs waiting to be arranged for string quartet. If your special song isn’t on our list, we will either try to source at no extra cost. If a string arrangement is not available for purchase we can write a personalised and original string quartet arrangement for you. The $350 fee includes writing the song for strings and a recording which we will send you as a memento in the weeks leading up to your wedding
OVERTIME
McGee contracts some of the most in-demand freelance musicians in the country. As a result it is important that timeframes are adhered to. In the event that an event runs overtime, the musician has the right to leave when the scheduled booking expires. If the musicians are able to accommodate the extended time, an overtime fee of $200 / musician / hour will be charged
PERFORMANCE NOTES
Armless chairs are required for all performing musicians. Performing in direct sunlight or rain may damage instruments - please ensure shade is available, and a wet weather plan in the event of rain
