What kind of music do you play for the ceremony and cocktail hour?

We have played traditional ceremony music (i.e. " Here Comes The Bride","There Goes The Bride") as well as our own choices, from J. S. Bach’s, "Jesu Joy of Man’s Desiring", Vivaldi’s "Four Seasons", Handel’s "Water Music" and Purcell’s "Trumpet Voluntary". If you are at a loss, we’ll choose and you’ll be extremely happy - 100% of our past clients are proof.

For the cocktail hour, we usually play more lively classical tunes and some South American arrangements that we love. It’s a nice mix and a perfect segue into the reception.

Will a flute and guitar duo be heard with 200 guests at our party?

We have played our music in settings from a private romantic dinner for two overlooking the 59th Street Bridge on Sutton Place to over 250 people in soho loft parties, weddings, and special events. The classical guitar can be easily picked up with a battery-operated amp the size of a breadbox, no problem for the flute to adjust!

What do you wear?

Formal - (black tie)- tuxedo and long black dress

Informal - Suit and colored dress

au naturel - better call someone else! (this was, in fact, a genuine request, of which we make no judgment, just not in our repertoire!)

What do you charge?

The fee charged is dependent upon location, amount of time, and other specifics. We would have to have all this information before quoting the client a fee. I will say that we have competitive rates, and have been told so, and are NOT farming out work to other musicians.

What you see/hear is what you get! We are NOT AGENTS. Our duo is a family business. If you are seriously considering our music, kindly fill out the request form in this website, and we will be happy to oblige.

Do you ask for a deposit? When must we pay the fee?

Yes, we do ask for a deposit to hold your date at the time of contract. It usually ranges from 50-$100.00 depending on the contract amount. The balance is payable on the day of the event.

Why should we choose your duo over any other group?

Once we have talked over the details personally, we have over a 90% success rate for hire. We are honest, friendly, flexible musicians who like the jobs we accept to turn out as well and better, as you have imagined it would. If we feel our music is NOT suitable for your event we will tell you.

Good luck in your search, hope we can be of service to you for your special event…call Kathy or Pat with any other questions you may have. 718-643-4608
