REPERTOIRE

THE QUARTETTE ACCORD, THE ACCORD TRIO, and THE ACCORD DUO can
perform an extensive repertoire of classical or popular selections appropriate for a wedding, party, or reception. With few exceptions, the music listed below can be performed by all three ensembles, but you should always ask if you're concerned about how a given song will work with the group that you wish to hire. For example, Canon in D does lose its canon, or round effect, when performed by just the violin/cello duo, and this will sometimes be a deciding factor for brides in choosing to hire the string trio instead.

It is impossible to list everything that we have available for you – never hesitate to inquire about a particular selection that interests you. In addition, we will make every effort possible to obtain any special requests that you have, although there will then be additional fees to purchase and/or arrange this music or to re-arrange a given selection for a different ensemble grouping (i.e. perhaps we have the song you want in trio form and you're hiring a full quartet).

RECEPTION MUSIC

We generally recommend a mixture of musical styles for background music during a cocktail hour or dinner reception. The lists below give you a good idea of what we'll normally bring to perform for such an event. However, we're happy to make adjustments to suit your personal preferences – perhaps strictly classical music for dinner is best for you.

Once you've looked over these lists, scroll on down for additional classical and popular titles that may appeal to you – we'll try to put together a package to suit your wishes. Our goal is to have a little something for everyone – maybe you love Disney tunes, or perhaps your day will be made by hearing a string quartet play a very current rock song!

We also offer an extensive repertoire for the holiday season – this too can be performed by any one of our three ensembles.
