    2

    We propose the right format

    Based on your event type and industry, we'll suggest the right setting (solo, duo or ensemble) and repertoire that fits the tone.

    3

    Confirm logistics

    We handle scheduling and arrival times with your event team or venue, so everything is ready to go on the day.

    4

    We play right on cue

    We blend into your event, whether as background ambiance during a reception or a featured moment during a gala dinner.

    Guidance

    Choosing the Right Format

    Professional (solo) works well for a cocktail hour or a smaller networking event where music should stay in the background. Duo or trio suits a gala dinner or client event where music is part of the experience. Premium (quartet and larger) is built for flagship events, product launches, or occasions where the performance itself is a highlight. From a solo violinist or pianist to a full string quartet, we perform in Zürich, Bern, Basel, and across Switzerland. Looking for music for a private celebration as well?

    FAQ

    Frequently asked questions

    How far in advance should we book for a corporate event?

    For smaller formats, two to three weeks is often enough. Larger ensembles or flagship events benefit from more lead time, ideally a month or more.

    Can you play in the background without being the focus?

    Yes. We regularly perform as ambiance during receptions and dinners, and can adjust volume, repertoire, and positioning so the music supports your event rather than competing with conversation.

    Do you perform outside the German-speaking part of Switzerland?

    Yes, we perform across all 26 cantons, including French and Italian-speaking Switzerland.

    How long do you play?

    Performance length is confirmed based on your event schedule, solo bookings typically run around an hour, quartet and orchestra formats can cover an entire reception or dinner.
