On May 9, 2015, Serenata Strings rehearsed with two vocalists under the age of 18 and although we offered the vocalists two previous MP3 recordings to practice with and a 40-minute rehearsal for FREE at no additional charge, it did not work out as the vocalists were not professionally trained.

Serenata Strings will work with vocalists of the bride’s or groom’s choosing for no additional charge. 
The vocalists have to be semi-professionally/professionally trained and above the age of 18.
