More Info


The Animata String Quartet is committed to playing music which people enjoy listening to, and the greatest amount of care is always taken in ensuring that individual needs and desires are taken into consideration. The quartet has a broad repertoire which encompasses not only classical favourites, but also arrangements from well known musicals and popular songs.


We require approximately 3 x 2 meters of level ground space, four (4) chairs without arms & adequate lighting. If the event is being held outdoors, we also require adequate shelter/cover from the elements. Regardless of the weather forecast, we all know Melbourne is notorious for it's unpredictable weather, so by having us protected from any possible rain and/or direct sunlight we are able to play more comfortably, thus ensuring you get our best possible sound!


We play all the standard string quartet repertoire – plus more! We have a huge range of music ranging from from Classical, Romantic, Jazz, Pop, Rock, as well as Movie and TV themed music.

If after reviewing our extensive list of music you would like us to play a piece which is not there, we can get a string arrangement made for you for a small additional fee.


For weddings, we typically play at the wedding ceremony, or at the wedding ceremony and then directly afterwards for pre-reception drinks & canapé’s. We can also play for part or all or your reception and have done so many times.

For other events such as corporate functions, conventions, trade shows, exhibitions, proposals, anniversaries, engagement parties, birthday parties and Christmas parties; we work with you to ensure our performance runs in accordance with your schedule and ensure breaks are taken at appropriate times (eg. during speeches, guest speakers, cake cutting, other acts etc).
