Windy City Strings

Zhanna was wonderful to work with prior to the event. We threw a lot of changes her way and she was very flexible. She provided guidance when it was needed. Our guests raved about how well they played and played along with our surprises.
I would highly recommend hiring them for your event!

The group was responsive and has a huge repertoire. They arrived on time and were very pleasant to work with. Our group recognized the modern songs they were playing and had a great time during our cocktail hour while the group was playing. They were classy and professional. We would absolutely hire them again!

They were great!

Thirty or more listeners in the dining room and more on the outside checking in were delighted with the music. Asked for classical and especially enjoyed the opera tunes but audience may have liked the movie theme music more. She didn’t steal the show, but she certainly added to it, as the residents watched one of the performer’s daughters with her tablet and ear phones who entertained herself. I’d certainly like to be in a position to hire them again.

I heard them play at a Professional Women's Club of Chicago event and they were wonderful! To hear songs we know and love played by classical instrumentalists is fun, enjoyable and such a refreshing change from the typical music that fades into the background. Would totally book them for my next event!

After seeing Windy City Strings perform at a family birthday party earlier this year, I hired them for a 100-person professional networking event. They’ve been the highlight of both of those events and I highly recommend them! The musicians are professional, easy to work with, and instantly elevate an event. This is an unbeatable value and one of Chicago’s best kept private entertainment secrets, in my opinion. This won’t be the last time I hire Janna and her team!

They did an okay job. They messed up a few times per song, were unsure of what to play to the point where my mom had to tell them. And they did not play the right songs at the correct time.

Everyone can’t stop talking about the string quartet we hired for the bridal shower! It was the perfect ambiance to our small cocktail style event. The musicians were amazing and very professional!

Janna's solo performance of Gypsy and Traditional Violin Music was the highlight of my Father's 93rd Birthday Party. The icing on the cake. Simply wonderful!

10 not 5 stars id what Janna and her team deserve! Windy City Strings lent a very elegant backdrop to our intimate dinner party. Everyone at the party especially the celebrant enjoyed their music and were blown away by their performance! Will invite them agsin in a heartbeat! Thank you Windy City Strings for making our surprise dinner specisl!

Great to work with, easy going and awesome work!!!!

We booked Windy City Strings for a holiday party and could not have been happier. They were professional, on time, responsive and very easy to work with. More than anything, they were incredibly talented musicians!!! Wow! Our group was blown away and I highly recommend them for any event you may be planning.

Janna and her team were great to work with. They were easy to book and communicate with as we decided on a song list. They even customized the song I walked down the aisle to based on an idea I had. Thank you, Janna and team!

This string quartet is simply amazing. We hired them for my daughter’s wedding and could not have been happier. Classic music coupled with pop songs made the wedding truly special. Janna was fantastic to work with in selecting the songs. You will be thrilled with their level of talent.

Janna, Janice and Christopher are a talented trio! They played for our event and their execution was flawless. They even played an imprompu request from the group! I received several comments from our attendees on how great they were and how much people enjoyed their music. I would hire them for another event in a heartbeat!

The quartet was wonderful!!! We had so...many compliments from our guests. The music was lovely, we were extremely happy with their performance. Thanks

We cannot thank you enough for your amazing performance for the wedding. All the guests raved about it all night long. I want to especially thank you too for the exceptional communication leading up to the event, day of and your flexibility for last min changes. Your performance was so beautiful and the bride was beyond happy! Thank you again.

I hired Windy City String Quartet to play at my second mother’s funeral mass. The amount of people who came up to me to commented on what a beautiful addition the quartet brought to the celebration of her life and mass.
Janna, and the other members of the quartet not only played beautifully, they looked amazing.
They were fit, well dressed, and so professional that they made me proud of my selection on hiring them.
Janna has a calm personality which made this stressful time in my life much easier. (Thank you)
I have had several people ask me where to find their info.
It is my pleasure to repeat Windy City String Quartet on gigsalad.com They will NOT disappoint you or yours.
My daughter is planning her wedding in Italy, I may have to see if they travel????????🙏🏻🤞
I am truly grateful

Janna and her pianist played at my engagement party and they did a phenomenal job of making it as seamless as possible for me. Their coordination was great, the pieces they chose were very fitting (classical and pop) and Janna was extremely kind and patient through the process. Would 100% hire her for my wedding.

I hired Janna on two separate occasions. Once, as a soloist and recently with her string quartet. She is very easy to work with. I could not be happier with her professional approach and high work ethic. Her music selection showed a very good understanding of what was appropriate for a certain occasion. To have a beautiful live music at our reception, has helped to turn it into an even more memorable event. I will definitely recommend Janna, and book her again in a second.
