Ethnic Music
We specialize in weaving your ethnic component into the musical selections at your affair while at the same time maintaining a good balance of popular American music. Many of our professional entertainers and vocalists are multi-lingual and are therefore able to sing and make announcements in several languages. Please speak to us regarding your particular requirements.
Classical & Chamber Music
Your guests will enjoy beautiful classical music for listening during a cocktail reception or ceremony. Our classical ensembles play from an extensive repertoire list. In addition to classical music, our ensembles can also play lighter fare including: Broadway show tunes, Cole Porter, George Gershwin, Scott Joplin, and popular love songs of the day. We offer a variety of classical ensembles including our String Quartet (two violins, viola, and cello), our Classical Trio (flute, violin, and cello), Harp & Flute, Classical Guitar, Ceremonial Brass, Strolling Violins, or simply one of our accomplished pianists at the Grand Piano.
Special Music Preparation
Agreatband.com offers you the services of our 'in house' production staff who can arrange and orchestrate special pieces of music to help make your affair unique. This service is offered in most cases at no charge to our clients. At your affair, our bandleader will use his experience and judgment, in addition to your own personal requests, to create a cohesive flow of song selections so that all of your guests will participate and enjoy the evening to the full! We work hard to make your event something very special.
