Profile
Highlights
* Delightful collection of classical and pop music
* Competent and professional musicians
* Unique sound great as a backdrop to any event
* Best rates in the Midlands
* Harp and Electric Cello Duo
Suzie and Catherine are two highly qualified and exceptionally experienced professional musicians specialising in providing fresh sounding and quite exquisite background music for impressive weddings and significant coroprate events. They also play for birthday parties anniversaries car/ product launches prize-giving ceremonies elaborate dinner parties; in fact any really special occasion where a touch of elegance is going to make a difference.
Both players have an orchestral background originally. Some of orchestras they have worked with are the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, BBC symphony Orchstra, Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra, Orchestra of the Royal Shakespeare Company and Orchestra of Opera North where Suzie was a full time member. More recently they have worked individually in top London Hotels, Royal Palaces, National Trust properties as well as private homes and conference centres.
Suzie is also the founder member of the Celebration String Quartet and Celebration Duo (violin/ flute and cello) and plays the electric cello in this ensemble and in the Toucan Duo with Piano/ Keyboard - all of which can also be found on Alive Network's site.
Listen to the sound of the electric cello on the demo clips if you haven't come across it before. The way it blends with the harp and the sound it carries easily in any acoustic, even in a thickly carpeted room, is a great advantage. The traditional cello would struggle to be heard in many hotels and large rooms.
The duo are hoping to add a flautist to their line-up to make a trio in the near future, so please do ask about it if it is somethimg that would appeal to you.
Please note: Blue Flamingo are not able to confirm dates more than 6 months in advance.
Set
list
The duo's repertoire list is very flexible as there is a melodic instrument and an accompanying instrument which is also renowned as a melody instrument in its own right. Some of the duo's favourite pieces which work really well for this combination are listed here. Of course in this genre the list is endless so they are happy to discuss this with you. Please first ask your agent.
