REPERTOIRE & SAMPLES
The following is a partial list of our extensive repertoire. If you're engaging the Mid-America String Quartet for a wedding, this list may assist you in your musical selections. Just click on the tabs to listen to the available audio samples. Most are not performed in their entirety, but they should give you a general idea of each piece. If you have any trouble playing them, please contact us.
If there is a piece that you would like that is not on our list, for an additional fee, we can purchase an existing string quartet arrangement or have it arranged for you. We are always happy to do this for our clients and add music to our repertoire.
