A Major Quartet/Ensemble
Since 1992, A Major has trained over 100 students from schools such as Iolani, Kamehameha, St. Andrews, Moanalua, Mid-Pacific Institute, and UH Manoa, to provide a wide range of music for weddings and other events. Many of the current members are music teachers, UH Symphony Orchestra members, and/or leaders of various high school orchestra programs on the island of Oahu. We take our performance seriously and schedule regular rehearsals in preparation for each event.
If you are a client that is interested in hiring an A Major Ensemble for a function, please e-mail Elton Masaki ([email protected]) for date availability and pricing. In general, November-January and May-August are our busiest months so it is highly recommended that you book us early (4-6 months ahead) if your function is scheduled for that time period. We can and have occasionally put quartets together on very short notice, however, this is not always easy to accomplish so please try to plan ahead.
The ensemble will be on location at least 30 minutes prior to the start of the performance. Upon request, we can wear formal black (tux or black dress), white top black pants/skirts, all black, or aloha attire. You can request that we perform specific musical pieces from our library, or if you express no preference, the ensemble will play a standard set of classical, pop, and Broadway Musical pieces from our repertoire. If your event is in December, we also have a number of Christmas/Winter pieces in a special folder that we can perform as well.
Since 2015, A Major has also expanded on a new venture with electronic instruments. We can accommodate duets, trios, quartets, quintets, and even larger ensembles on electronic instruments. Please visit out Electronic Ensemble page for more details.
When contacting us by email, please remember to provide us the following information: your name, the date of the event, the type of function (wedding, private party, etc), approximate start and end time of performance and attire requested.
Thank you for taking the time to learn about our organization. I hope that A Major can help you in the future!
