Terms
1. The quartet requires a performance space of at least 2.5m x 2.5m at the venue.
2. An adequate standard of lighting is required if we are to play indoors. If this is not possible then we must be notified at least 7 days in advance, and a power source must be available near the performance space for the facilitation of extra lighting which we will provide.
3. The quartet will only play outside if adequate shade or cover has been provided. Please make sure you have informed us if you are intending for us to perform outdoors. There are no exceptions to this as the instruments are valuable and can be damaged by sun or rain.
4. It is the reponsibility of the client to notify the venue that live music is being played.
5. If the event is longer than one hour the Quartet reserves the right to take short rest breaks (not during wedding ceremonies of course!) e.g. if it is a two hour booking , we would normally take a 5- 10 min break in the middle…if it is a 3 or more hours booking we would take a 10 min break after the first hour and 15 mins approximately and 10 mins at around two and a half hours etc
6. A deposit is required for the booking to be secured.

8. The balance of payment is due on the date of the engagement, unless prior arrangements have been made between the client and the quartet. Cheques should be made payable to M M Music Co. Ltd.
