Wired offers a fresh, hip take on traditional string quartet performance. Individually we sparkle as performers, and as a quartet we have compiled and polished a lively repertoire through years of playing together at functions. We offer not only the much-loved classical pieces but also a large selection of jazz, Latin and more.

Classical
This repertoire includes classical hits like Mozart’s Eine Kleine Nachtmusik and Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, as well as arrangements from operas such as Carmen, The Pearl Fishers and Gianni Schicchi. We include Broadway musicals such as Phantom of the Opera and Fiddler on the Roof, and light classics like Boccherini’s Minuet, Elgar’s Salut d’Amour, Strauss’s waltzes, Tchaikovsky’s Sleeping Beauty waltz and Mozart’s Rondo alla Turca.
