The musicians have selected particularly lush and melodic music that will appeal to lovers of both classical and more popular music. Fans of show tunes, easy listening, opera, jazz and swing will find familiar melodies amongst beautiful classical music for string quartet. Much of the programme has been reworked into other pieces, and some of the melodies have been famously recorded by artists including Frank Sinatra, Katherine Jenkins and Dionne Warwick.
