It reminds me of my beautiful wife who entered the church to this piece of music for our wedding almost forty years ago.

an appropriately chill version

[@HaritheRenaissanceMan]

As a professional musician myself, I must say I enjoy the tempo that you take, a typical Baroque "tempo ordinario." All the Early Music groups that have recorded this piece in the last 30-40 years or so take it at such a breakneck speed, I feel like I'm on a rollercoaster that's about to spiral out of control. This music is about the arrival of a queen and her retinue, somewhere in the Middle East where it's hot, during biblical times, thousands of years ago. People were not in a hurry! Even to consider the context in 18th century England, the pace of life was slower back then, so I never understand why ensembles take this sinfonia so fast, as if to "get it over with"? Organists tend to also take this piece on the slower side, which I prefer. Again, thank you, and warm regards to you all - Hari, Honolulu, Hawaii

Delightful! The moments of duetting for violin/cello, viola/cello and second violin/viola gave particular joy to this exceedingly amateur viola-player.

wonderful performance, one of the best I heard of Queen Sheeba, a piece that I love dearly, in all kinds of versions. Was so glad to have discovered your version!!!

Wow! So very nice. As a beginner on violin, the performance is simply amazing and very inspirational.

[@charlesgravelle538]

This is amazing! You guys are really talented and I love your work! Do you ever take requests? I would love to hear your version of "Lavender's Blue" or "Who is she" from the new Cinderella film. Thank you and play on!

[@StringQuartetMusic]

Hello Kittyorion Thank you for your message. We can only record what we have in our repertoire I'm afraid. This is due to sheet music requirements. We are uploading another 20 videos on the 1st of each month between now and May. They are a mixture of classical and modern :)

[@edschulhof6303]

Beautifully done, I enjoy all of your posts. Who is in the sarcophagus?

[@StringQuartetMusic]

Hello Ed Sir Hugh Calveley (died 23 April 1394) was an English knight and commander, who took part in the Hundred Years' War, gaining fame during the War of the Breton Succession and the Castilian Civil War. He held various military posts in Brittany and Normandy. He founded the college of which St Boniface was the collegiate church, in the 1380s.

[@edschulhof6303]

Thank you.

[@unclepatrick1]

Great Job. Curious to know where this was recorded. I love to play chamber music in churches with high ceilings. Great acoustics.

[@StringQuartetMusic]

Hello. We performed at St Boniface's Church, Bunbury

[@georgetunstill2341]

I was thinking the same thing too Patrick Kennedy. The acoustics in that church is perfect.

[@StringQuartetMusic]

Hello George. We performed at St Boniface's Church, Bunbury, Cheshire.
