Amante Duo

The Amante Duo are a warm and bubbly married couple with 3 kids based out of Calgary, AB, who combine their passion for guitar and flute with their love of singing for an exceptional blend of traditional and modern acoustic music (though they would never describe themselves as traditional). Hilary and Noel pair their unique sound and style to perform music in every genre from pop and jazz standards, to indie, R&B, folk, and even rock; they can take it all and turn it into exactly the acoustic dream that you're after.

Experience

Flutist Hilary Aubin Amante and guitarist Noel Amante are the classically trained husband-and-wife team that make up this duo, who first started performing together in their undergrad music degrees in 2004. They have been creating arrangements and performing for weddings, events and venues ever since with full seasons and full hearts.

Services offered

Much of the duo's repertoire has been arranged by themselves to suit a particular style or event. That all-time favourite upbeat song of yours can be slowed down and smoothed over for an unforgettable walk down the aisle. Improvisation plays an important role in all of their performances to ensure seamless timing, entries, and exits. These are the musicians who will go above and beyond to create the ambience you've been dreaming of at your wedding.

The duo offers a number of packages depending on your wedding's musical needs, including by-the-hour bookings. Their wedding ceremony package offers the following services:

• Consultation via email, phone or in person
• Thirty minutes of prelude (pre-ceremony) music in your choice of style
• Completely personalized selection of ceremony program music
• Fifteen minutes of postlude (post-ceremony) music in your choice of style
• Seamless entries and perfect timing to accomodate any 'glitches'
• Unique requests or special songs can be accommodated
