About / Biography

Based in the historic city of York, UK, we are The Ebor Quartet, a professional string quartet available for weddings, corporate functions, concerts, and other celebratory events across the country.

We are an experienced ensemble playing and performing at many notable venues across the UK, Europe, and internationally. So, if you're planning an event, we'd love to make your day both special and memorable.

After years of committed study and practice, The Ebor Quartet became a professional ensemble, performing for packed audiences at a variety of venues. We are classically trained musicians who can add style and a unique sound to your wedding, drinks reception, event or recording.

Our repertoire features all the classical standards for your event, as well as many genres such as film, opera and pop covers.

Performing acoustically, we can entertain your guests indoors and outdoors and engage them before, during and after events. The choice is all up to you!

We come as part of a Quartet, Trio, Duo or Soloist - whatever works for you.
