WOODFIELD STRINGS
"FILL YOUR SPECIAL DAY WITH LIVE MUSIC"
Woodfield Strings is a musical ensemble from Sheffield in the North of England, specialising in background music for weddings, parties, conferences and other events. As professional musicians we have performed with the UK's top orchestras including the CBSO, RLPO, Halle, BBC Philharmonic and Opera North. We have performed on TV and radio, recorded with orchestras and rock/pop artists and toured the world with bands.
We have a huge library of music which expands every month. We pride ourselves on being able to arrange and perform special requests for our clients at no additional charge. As accomplished musicians, on being booked, we are also happy to take requests at the event. It’s always good to have music that means something special played live at your event. Julie is both our violinist/violist and resident arranger and composer.
The first Woodfield concert was a tribute to the well-known musician, teacher and instrument maker Joe Worrall from Rotherham. As well as teaching one of our violinists in her youth, we were fortunate to be asked to perform on some of his most celebrated handcrafted instruments. Some of our musicians purchased these instruments after this event.
Since this first concert we have been busy performing for concerts, weddings, parties, fetes and other events.
We set our fees by the event, not by the hour and the quotation you receive will be specific to your event and inclusive of everything. All we need on the day is a space of about 2m by 3m, armless chairs, appropriate shelter, a parking allocation and a place to leave instrument cases and bags. We do not need amplification or electricity.
Based in Sheffield, we are happy to travel to Yorkshire, the Peak District, Derbyshire, Greater Manchester, Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, Lancashire, Staffordshire and Leicestershire.
