tringfever

The world's first generically modified string quartet!!!!!

Come and see the Broadbent family string quartet perform on their 2 electric violins, viola, and cello, in a unique program that provides an amazing evening's entertainment.

Stringfever is truly a family affair, as brothers Giles, Ralph and Neal Broadbent and their cousin Graham, dazzle their audiences with their amazing musical talents. They come from a long line of great musical abilities dating back to their grandfather, a renowned organist, choirmaster and singer, with 3 of the 4 of his sons finding careers in music as well. Those sons, of course, being the boys' fathers.

Giles and Ralph attended the Royal Academy of Music in England, Graham attended the Royal College of Music in England, and before Neal could choose which musical school he was headed for, his three family members persuaded him to join them and put together this one-of-a-kind group.

These talented musicians have put together a truly original show featuring five and six stringed electric violins, called violectras, a viola, and a cello. Some of the unique features of the show include String Fever's acclaimed version of "Bolero," with all four members of the group playing one cello at the same time!

At one point, the audience is challenged to a rousing game of name that tune, trying to guess 20 of the most popular film theme songs, including a rousing rendition of a "007, James Bond Medley." The fantastic culmination of the show is the group's signature finale, "The History of Music...in 5 minutes." The unique instruments and charismatic personalities of the members of the group make Stringfever a truly unique and unforgettable, not to miss, musical experience.
