Summertime Lana Del Rey at Wembley 🎻 Thanks again to @wembleyparkldn for organising such a fun way for us to perform for Lana Del Rey fans right before her sold out shows at Wembley. It was one of the hottest days of the year but a memorable day where we performed 10 brand new classical string covers of Lana’s songs as an ensemble of eight musicians rather than our usual string quartet. It’s got us thinking we should perform more often as a beefed up string section and maybe even record these arrangements!?

Happy memories from our Taylor Swift album release show at @woolwichworks earlier this month captured by @xavierboldu 😍 Thank you for being such a warm audience and sharing in this moment with us. Our “audience choice” section of the concert was our little gift to you and we had SO much fun performing all 12 tracks from the album for the very first time. Plus, the first time we’ve ever done not one, but TWO outfit changes. ON STAGE 😂 CSE Performs Taylor Swift is out on all streaming platforms and with your help, maybe we can make a Vol. 2 someday 😉 . . . #musicians #classical #taylorswift #cse #citystringensemble #stringquartet #classicalconcert #stringscover #music #stringquartetcovers #taylorswiftalbum #stringquartetcovers

Out now on all platforms. …Ready For It? Link in bio. We’ve been patiently waiting for Taylor’s version, so we thought we’d make our own! This is NOT your ordinary classical cover. In fact, we struggle with fitting into the classical genre AT ALL.

And if you’d like to support us in a more meaningful way, please consider purchasing the single from our Bandcamp page. Either way, we’re eternally grateful. AND…this single is the first release from our NEW ALBUM, releasing on 6 June. ‘CSE Performs Taylor Swift’ with one song from every era. A treat for Swifties! Huge shout out to @ceciliabignall for this incredible arrangement 🫶🏼 . . . #stringquartet #strings #stringcover #classicalmusicians #music #classicalcover #intsrumental #citystringensemble #violin #cello #musicians #taylorswift #taylorsversion #reputation #readyforit
