    Hi Tony, I just wanted to quickly say thank you so much for making our wedding ceremony beautiful…your music sounded amazing! Although, unfortunately we never got the chance to actually meet you during the cocktail hour since it was also our bridal photo session! But, your trio was fantastic and everything sounded perfect. Thanks again for all of your help–I will definitely recommend you to others! Take care. Best, Natalie

    Dear Shrewsbury String Quartet,
    String music held a very special place in our mother’s heart. We knew that she wanted a string quartet at her funeral and we are very thankful that we found you. You were absolutely wonderful. Many of our friends told us that it was most memorable and emotional when you played Amazing Grace as the pallbearers carried mom out of the church. They said it was something that they will never forget. We wish that we could have met under different circumstances and that mom could have heard you play, although I’m not so sure that she didn’t.
    Sincerely,
    Rose
