Samuel and Woody String Duo were amazing (Cello and violin duet). They gave an exceptional performance and were just very pleasant to work with. The entire process could not have gone more smoothly. Our event was a birthday party with just a handful of people at our home, giving Samuel the opportunity to play and engage the small audience with conversation, which just added to the experience. Our playlist ranged from Bach and hymns to Ed Sheeran and movie scores, and they pulled it off adeptly and beautifully. Thanks for such a memorable evening. I would hire again in an instant.
Response from Woody String Duo:
Thank you so much Kevin for the kind message. It was a joy to share music with you and your family.

I’m so elated I was able to be graced with Samuel’s musical prowess! 5 stars was barely enough to rate the experience from this talented musician. Highly recommended! BOOK WITH THE WOODY STRING DUO FOR YOUR NEXT EVENT!
Samuel worked with us to provide the perfect music for our daughter’s wedding ceremony. We highly recommend Samuel!!
Response from Woody String Duo:
Thank you so much for booking me for your daughter’s ceremony. It was a pleasure to share my music with you. Congrats to the couple!
Communication was great, arrived on time and followed all directions for ceremony. Could not be happier with service!
We had the pleasure of hiring Woody String Duo for our daughter’s Bat Mitzvah. Not only was the music wonderful but he was able to meet our specific musical requests with very little head time. He arrived early to prepare and responded very quickly to all our calls and texts. I highly recommend this duo for your events.
Fantastic!
Response from Woody String Duo:
It was a pleasure to be part of your ceremony. Best wishes!
I hired one of the Woody String Duo for my proposal, and he was phenomenal! It sounded beautiful, and he went above and beyond to make sure everything went how I wanted it to go. I’m hoping I’m able to book them both for our wedding!

The Woody String Duo is a husband and wife team that formed in 2013. Samuel and Shannon Cho have both been active performers and chamber musicians for many years. In addition to this is their love for teaching and education through music. This has led them to form a unique children’s program that is called StringTime Stories. They are available to perform at weddings, receptions, cocktail events, Christmas functions, and any other special occasion. They like to push the boundaries of what music is available for string duo, and are open to special requests.
Having been involved in numerous string quartets in the past, Samuel and Shannon are always looking for opportunities to collaborate with new musicians.
