Stringfever is truly a family affair, as brothers Giles, Ralph, and Neal Broadbent and their cousin Graham, dazzle their audiences with their amazing musical talents.
These four world class musicians come from a long line of amazing musical talent, dating back to their grandfather, A renowned organist, choirmaster, and singer, with 3 of the 4 of his sons finding careers in music as well. Those sons, of course, being the boys’ fathers. Giles and Ralph attended the Royal Academy of Music in England, Graham attended the Royal College of Music in England, and before Neal could choose which musical school he was headed for, his three family members persuaded him to join them and put together this one of a kind group. These talented musicians have put together a truly original show featuring five and six stringed electric violins, called violectras, a viola, and a cello. Some of the unique features of the show include Stringfever’s acclaimed version of “Bolero,” with all four members of the group playing one cello at the same time. At one point, the audience is challenged to a rousing game of name that tune, trying to guess 20 of the most popular film theme songs, including a rousing rendition of a “007, James Bond medley.” The fantastic culmination of the show is the group’s signature finale, “The History of Music . . . in 5 minutes.”
The unique instruments and charismatic personalities of the members of the group make Stringfever a truly unique and unforgettable, not to miss, musical experience. Since catching the attention of Europeans from one side of the continent to the other, Stringfever has decided to make the journey across the ocean and share their incredible show with their American friends. Catch the fever and find the cure with Stringfever, a truly unique musical experience!
