Dance is an ancient visual art which can be enjoyed at a variety of social events today. We are incredibly excited to share the work of Peabody's incredible dancers with you.
Guitar
Few instruments are more versatile and publicly known than the guitar. Our referred guitarists can perform in solo or ensemble contexts depending on your needs.
Harp
The harp is a beautiful instrument that is highly requested for parties and receptions. Harps are often paired with other instruments such as flute, violin, or voice.
Jazz
Our jazz pianists are comfortable playing for cocktail hours and other small occasions, while our jazz combos are happy to perform at restaurants, receptions, or parties.
Percussion
Our versatile percussionists can often perform as soloists, in percussion ensembles, or in chamber groups with other instrumentalists. They provide a tasteful addition to church services, dance classes, parades, or other parties and events.
Strings
The strings, specifically the string quartet, represent our most requested type of instrument group. Strings are the deeply ingrained, go-to instruments for dinners, weddings, and many other occasions.
Voice
Our singers offer dramatic performances for events like parties, ceremonies, and religious services. While they receive classical training, many also perform musical theater, as well as pop, jazz, and folk.
Winds
Our wind players are perfect soloists and ensemble members at cocktail hours, weddings, dinners, and more. Typical groups to hire include wind quintets, saxophone quartets, flute and clarinet ensembles, and duos for flute and guitar.
We do our best to match you with appropriate performers for your event. However, we cannot guarantee their availability.
