This is an area where there is a great diversity of functions for which our string quartets, jazz bands and barn dance bands are hired, ranging from weddings through to birthday parties, but also including military events and a lot of community events. The community spirit and there must be strong. It's also attractive countryside for the bands to drive through on the way to their gigs, as they wend their way to the Chilterns.
Beechwood forests, so dense that they only rarely allow views across the countryside, cover most of the Chilterns, especially in Buckinghamshire. Much of Buckinghamshire has become a commuting area for London, but many villages and the centres of some of the towns have kept their traditional Chiltern character, with brick-and-flint houses leading up wide streets to a Norman church. Industry has come to Great Missenden, Princes Risborough and High Wycombe; but arable and dairy farming at the foot of the hills and sheep rearing on the higher slopes go on much as they have done since Saxon times when yeoman farmers settled there.

High Wycombe is a largely industrial town with only a few remaining old buildings such as the 18th-century town hall, the 17th-century little market house and the 13th-century church. To the north of the town is Hughenden Manor, Disraeli's old home which, with 169 acres, is now National Trust property.
West Wycombe Park, 3 miles west, the magnificent home of the Dashwood family, is a Palladian mansion set in grounds landscaped by Humphrey Repton. On a hilltop is an old church with an immense gilded ball on the top of the tower. The church was rebuilt in the 18th century by Sir Francis Dash-wood, one of the leaders of the Hell Fire Club, otherwise known as the Medmen-ham Monks, taking this name from the ruined abbey at Medmenham, where they held many of their rites.

The Crown InnHigh Street Amersham Buckinghamshire, HP7 0DH, Buckinghamshire
Amersham Heritage Day The ST String Quartet ref: 6171
Amersham old town has been well preserved; the Swan Inn surprises tourists by claiming that it was rebuilt in 1643. The High Street is broad and noble with Georgian houses, old gabled and timbered inns, and cobbled courtyards leading to thatched cottages. In the centre of the High Street is the market hall, built on open arches. Near the market hall is an old cottage decorated with murals, including portraits of Julius Caesar and Hector of Troy, painted on the living-room walls about two centuries ago. There are some attractive old inns including The Crown, the gabled Elephant and Castle, and Mill Stream House, where the stream flows through the inn.
A monument on a nearby hillside commemorates many Lollards who were burnt at the stak. They were extremist followers of John Wyclif, the reformer who attacked the dogmas of the Church and the power of priests.

this is a family run hotel in the centre of Newport Pagnell. It was once a 15th century coaching inn, the stylish venue for civil partnerships and wedding receptions, and can accommodate up to 80 guests for this. It's a style of wedding venue that is very fitting for string quartet.

just the sort of place for a birthday party, it's a nice sized hall with plenty of space for doing so dances and long sets during a barn dance. There's nary other side of some columns where tables and chairs can be set up progress to have a rest between dancers. Ideal.

Live music hired for Wedding The BB String Trio ref: 6232
Woburn’s history is connected to the Russell family, Dukes of Bedford, used to own a tenth of the county, and they gave their estate good churches, inns and private houses. Many of the cottages have a carved monogram 'B' under a coronet on their facades; some of them have no door at the front of the house, owing to the whim of an early Duke of Bedford who disliked seeing cottagers gossiping at their front doors.
The original Woburn Abbey was founded in 1145, but Henry VIII gave it to the Russells at the Dissolution. The present house was rebuilt by Henry Flitcroft in 1747-61 and remodelled by Henry Holland in 1787-8. The State Apartments have gilded ceilings and are filled with art treasures. In the 3000-acre park is the famous Wild Animal Kingdom, where visitors can drive among lions, giraffes and elephants.
In the village of Woburn, a fire in the 18th century made room for much Georgian architecture. Holland built part of the original Bedford Arms—then called The George—but it has been much altered since. Nearby \Voburn Sands was created by the coming of the railway in the I9th century

Milton Keynes Rugby Club Emerson Valley Sports Pavilion, Bowland Drive, Emerson Valley, Milton Keynes , MK4 2DN, Buckinghamshire
as well as welcoming rugby players between the ages of 5 to 60 (what is wrong with people over 60?), The clubhouse is available for hire for weddings, parties christening's, wakes, and anything else you might think of. Sounds a pretty good place to me, they don't make you run round the rugby pitch before enjoying a jazz band, joining in with the ceilidh, whatever the musical delicacy may be. I can handle up to hundred 80 guests at a pretty big place, and this hundred and 20 free car parking spaces, which is always good to know for the band. It can be a real pain when parking is tight, with the band has to get their vehicle as close as possible to the entrance because of all levy kits are likely to have to carry around. Not problem with a string quartet, but with anything like a jazz band or ceilidh band that has PA equipment, it's rather important. You don't want the band to be exhausted before they start!

Olney is a market town on the River Ouse, famous for its Shrove Tuesday pancake-race— a tradition which started in the 15th century—and a good centre for exploring several attractive villages.
Weston Underwood, west of Olney, was the home of the poet William Cowper (1731-1800), whose house is still there. A stone gateway built in 1700 forms the entrance to the village, which has thatched cottages and barns and a great manor. A wildlife farm has many rare species of birds.
Gayhurst, 31 miles south-west of Olney, is attractively situated in woodlands beside the Ouse; Gayhurst House once belonged briefly to Sir Francis Drake. It was a meeting place for Sir Everard Digby, Robert Catesby and Thomas Winter, who were leaders with Guy Fawkes of the Gunpowder Plot.
