Music for Celebration

Jane, Emily and Leo devote care and attention towards creating beautiful music for your special occasion. Our work encompasses intimate marriage ceremonies to global commercial projects and we are pleased to tailor the musical ambience to best reflect your personal requirements.

Our expertise extends beyond performance degrees from the Sydney Conservatorium of Music and orchestral experience with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, Australian Opera and Ballet Orchestra, Sydney Philharmonia Orchestra and Sydney Opera House Baby’s Proms Orchestra. It is drawn from sustained success and longevity at the forefront of fine string music in Australia. We hope that you enjoy our showreel of commercial accomplishments.

We are the preferred supplier for events at the Sydney Opera House through the Trippas White Group; one of Australia’s premier bespoke entertainment agencies.

We are pictured as a string trio, however we often play as a string quartet by adding a colleague on viola.

We look forward to collaborating with you!

Jane, Emily and Leo
