Hampstead Ensemble

The Hampstead Ensemble was formed by three recent first-class graduates of the Royal Academy of Music in London 2016. A truly international ensemble, with musicians hailing from Spain, Sweden, and the UK, we are passionate about various repertoire, ensuring the perfect fit for every occasion, from weddings, baptisms and funerals, to corporate events, parties and concert recitals. We regularly perform background and function work in the UK, and have performed at places such as Royal Society of Medicine, Royal Academy of Arts, as well as for companies such as Howard de Walden Estates and Bvlgari. We are highly professional and make sure to select suitable music for every occasion. Wherever we have played, the overwhelming feedback from clients has stated that they were extremely pleased with the varied music selection, and being just right in terms of volume - not too loud, but always able to be heard! We perform mostly as a string trio, but are also happy to perform as a string duo, string quartet or even provide a small string ensemble/orchestra for your event, but please be in touch beforehand to discuss your specific requirements. Repertoire may vary for other combinations, but we endeavour to make sure there are equally fantastic alternatives available in every combination you would like. We have several trusted colleagues to call upon wherever we need to expand the group with extra musicians to suit your request, and we will always ensure music making of the highest standard! We play everything from Baroque, Classical, and contemporary classical compositions, to pop covers, tangos, and jazz arrangements. No request is too obscure! We are always happy for prospective clients to get in touch about suitable repertoire, or if they have any other general questions. Please have a look at our sample repertoire list below to get an idea of what is on offer. We also have a vast experience in the field of recording, having recorded for ROLI software, Video games, strings backing for pop artists, etc. Please note that recording fees apply to such sessions (which are different from our live rates), should you wish to make a booking. Please make an enquiry for an accurate quote before booking. We hold a Public Liability Insurance for up to £10 million.
