Terrific Trio!

We hired Kevin and his team for our city wedding. They played for 2 hours (before the ceremony, ceremony and cocktail). Our guests raved about their performance. They truly elevated our wedding! Thank you TSQ!

Amazing Music and Professionalism!

The String Quartet provided great music ideas based on our wedding theme and for the different parts of our ceremony. Including our wedding party walking down the aisle to the bride’s entrance, walk, and the bride and groom’s exit. They were able to make my wmdream to have a cello at the ceremony and even suggested to add a pianist to duo in order to improve the overall sound and beat of the ceremony. The String Quartet is thoughtful in how certain instruments carry in the room and have great song options with a willingness to add to their repertoire if the time permits.

Professionally performed the day of the wedding ceremony and we would not have gone with anyone else for our wedding.

Highly recommended

My husband and I had the pleasure of having Kevin play at our intimate wedding this past summer and it was a great experience. Flexible, professional, easy to work with, and of course, wonderful music. He was able to combine our own music requests with some tasteful additions of his own as we had asked for. Would definitely recommend!

TSQ is the best!!!

We hired TSQ to play our ceremony and it was the best decision. Their repertoire is expansive, featuring some unique music from video games and movies. They also learned a few custom requests, which made our ceremony so special.

I would 1000000% recommend to anyone considering hiring a string quartet for their wedding or any ceremony. The musicians are so talented, were so responsive and priced very reasonably.

Thank you so much for making our wedding ceremony so incredible!

Great experience, amazing musicians!

We had the Toronto String Quartet at our wedding and Kevin was so great to communicate with. The team played beautifully and added a great ambiance to celebrate our day. They also played a couple of our favourite songs during our ceremony which made it so special. If you are looking for musicians for any occasion, I would highly recommend them,

Manager

Originally from Pickering Ontario, a suburb of Toronto Canada; Kevin began his musical journey with the violin at the tender age of 3. After 7 years of playing the violin, Kevin moved on to bigger and better things, (literally), with his shift to the cello... After displaying remarkable natural ability as an adolescent, his skills and knowledge were refined at Western University (Undergraduate), followed by the University of Toronto (Masters), where he received 2 musical performance degrees, along with numerous awards and tuition scholarships throughout his time at both institutions.

As full owner and operator of the Toronto String Quartet, and co-owner of Yours Truly Live Entertainment; Kevin plays, oversees and organizes performances for all types of events, including private and corporate events. Kevin has had the pleasure of playing for numerous special occasions, including the wedding of Toronto Maple Leafs Captain, John Tavares.

​Kevin's cello is named "Halle", & was masterfully made by Raymond Schryer in Sault Ste Marie, ON.
