Terms and Conditions

Full terms & conditions are available on request but key terms to consider when booking 4tissimo are below:

Booking Form  should be completed and returned no more than 14 days after your booking has been confirmed with a Deposit of £80.00.

If you require an arrangement of a piece that is not in our repertoire, there may be an additional charge of £25 per arrangement, £50 if there is no sheet music available.

The quartet will require sufficient space to be able to play, (minimum of 4m x 3m), 4 ordinary chairs without arms and adequate lighting.

The musicians will take a 5 minute ‘comfort break’ after 2 hours if required and 10 minutes break for each hour after the 3rd hour of a booking whilst remaining flexible enough to work within your itinerary. For example, the musicians could take one longer break rather than two shorter breaks depending on the length of your booking. 4tissimo try hard to minimise any need for a break in order to keep the music as continuous as possible.

In the event of any quartet member being unavailable for your event, 4tissimo have a pool of regular ‘extras’ , all professional players who know the repertoire well; 4tissimo guarantee to provide you with top quality musicians always.
