"The Appassionata Strings quartet literally took my breath away. We were seated in front of them on the altar and when they began playing, in harmony, with the cantor I was moved to tears. The majority of my night was filled with compliments about the quartet and how beautiful they made the ceremony. I was more than satisfied. They made my ceremony a dream come true." Stephany Zipay - Sept. 25, 2010 @ St. Stanislaus

"Having Appassionata play for my daughter's wedding ceremony was one of the best decisions I made for that important day! Donna was very helpful in the selection of the music and she was also very receptive to working with some of my requests. The extensive training of these musicians was obvious-every note was beautifully played. Thank you Appassionata and Jerry Bruno!" Jennifer Sacher (Lindsey Sacher/Jason Duca wedding) - Aug. 14, 2010 @ Windows on the River
