Adrian was fabulous, so easy to work with, and thoroughly prepared for the event, he came in, set up, and played. Our event ran a little past the scheduled end time but I told him he didn't need to stay on. He was packed up and out the door and I don't think anyone but I saw his departure.
In terms of music, it was perfect. A lovely sound and mix of songs complemented my event and his Pachelbel Canon (one of my favorite pieces and a special request) was superb.
I wish I booked more events in town because I'd love to hear Quartetto Solo play more often.
Wedding•Reviewed on March 6, 2023•From Chicago, IL
Used Quartetto Solo for my wedding in downtown Chicago. Originally found him thru a wedding gig site, and selected him based off of a list of songs in his repertoire that coincidentally mostly followed what I was hoping to hear and honestly because of the fantastic price point compared to a full string quartet.
Ended up loving the service even more, as Quartetto was extremely responsive, easy to work with, and reliable on the day of. The pieces sounded absolutely fantastic
Songs outside of his repertoire are $25 extra per piece to learn was the only drawback

Adrian did a fantastic job performing, it was just what we were looking for! We asked for upbeat, pop (well-known) songs for the background of our small party and that's just what Adrian delivered. It was a highlight of the event!
Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on March 22, 2022•From Chicago, IL
Adrian was PHENOMENAL. He is incredibly talented and very professional. I was being a bratty bride and wanted to change the ceremony songs 5 days before my wedding. Adrian was able to get the sheet music and perfect the song in such a short amount of time. His beautiful music set the tone for my ceremony and made it absolutely magical. I would recommend him to anyone for any type of event. In fact, after hearing him play, my friend now wants him to play at her August wedding. Thank you Quartetto Solo (Adrian), you’re the best!

Professional, punctual, and personable, Adrian provided a unique listening experience as a one-man quartet, blending his live violin with an electronic accompaniment. The classical melodies added a touch of elegance to our event, while the contemporary tunes provided a playfulness and sense of familiarity among our guests. It was light listening, helping create a calm atmosphere for those in attendance. All our guests were complimentary of his work, and there would be no hesitation to hire him again for a future occasion, especially given his easy-going persona and demeanor. It was a real pleasure to have him be a part of our outdoor event; simply fantastic!

I’ve hired Adrian of Quartetto Solo for hundreds of weddings and events over the last fourteen years. He is an excellent violinist and our clients have always had nothing but great things to say about him. Adrian is a true professional, and knows what it takes to make an event run smoothly. He is my first choice when booking a violinist for weddings or any other event, and he is a real asset to the String Theory Chamber Ensemble. I recently had the chance experience Adrian’s new project, Quartetto Solo, and to say I was impressed would be an understatement.
