A quote for Wedding Quartets.  Bromsgrove   

Wedding Quartets and similar ensembles have been mentioned in novels and plays. Here are some quotations:-

The trombone and side-drums in the chamber music of Stravinsky will do well enough in a very smart house-party where all the conversation is carried on in an esoteric family slang and the guests are expected to enjoy booby-traps. Donald Francis Tovev (1875—1940)
