Intermezzo String Quartet
Our repertoire
Intermezzo String Quartet's repertoire is extensive and varied and through regular rehearsals we are able to add to and update it. We play a large selection of popular classics from composers such as Bach, Handel, Vivaldi, Mozart, and Haydn. We also love playing swing arrangements of Gershwin, Cole Porter, Kern, Bernstein and others, as well as ragtime music, show tunes, ballads, modern well known tunes, and more.
We always do our best to accommodate any particular requests which are not on our repertoire list. So if it is possible and practical to obtain or compose an arrangement of a particular piece of music which is special to you, we will do so.
The pieces which are in colour below can be played by clicking on them (needs an MP3 player installed). These can also be heard on our demonstration CD (available on request).
