CANTABILE QUARTET
About
Are you looking to hire a professional Sydney choir or vocal group? We usually perform as a quartet in four part harmony (soprano, alto tenor and bass) but are also available as a duo to a group of 8. We can perform acapella or with instrumental accompaniment. Ideal for a wide variety of function styles including shopping centres, festivals, stage concerts, corporate or private events.
All singers are university qualified in music and are highly trained in singing. Their experience and professionalism guarantee you the highest standard of performance reliability. No fussy equipment: they arrive, entertain your guests, then leave. Don't take chances by hiring an amateur choir. Hire our Cantabile Duo, Cantabile Trio, Cantabile Quartet or Cantabile Choir for your event.
Wedding Ceremonies/Funerals/Church Services/Special Events
There’s nothing like live music sung with beautiful harmonies to make your event unforgettable. We are a versatile group that can perform traditional classical repertoire, jazz or pop arragements.
Christmas Songs/Carols
Performers can dress in smart casual/formal black with sparkly Santa hats or hints of red and green.
The mobility and flexibility of the carol singing quartet allows them to roam amongst guests, sing by the Christmas tree enchanting guests as they come and go or perform a 'Carols by Candelight' stage concert. Our Christmas carollers are entertaining, heart warming, will delight any audience and really bring the spirit of Christmas alive.

“I was very impressed with the professionalism and skill of the cantabile duo. They had the ability to engage a large and fired up crowd at our event, and inspire them to sing along to their performance. At a week’s notice they were able to organise a list of songs based on a stylistic request. I would recommend them for any event.”
Thanks
