Bio
APHRODITE STRINGS was formed March 2009 to fulfill a need for a string quartet in the Paphos area of Cyprus. The quartet has performed successful recitals with the Music in the Mountains, and Music on the Coast programmes, and performed at the Last Night of the Pissouri Proms, in the Pissouri Amphitheatre.
The repertoire covers mainly styles and eras, from Baroque to the Beatles, and Romantic to Rock. The group can be electrified and also be augmented by Tommy Locke on electric/acoustic guitar to form a unique and interesting upbeat sound which is perfect for functions, dinners, weddings and events.
