Our Administrative Team

Sylvia DiCrescentis, Artistic Director

Sylvia DiCrescentis, Artistic Director

With 20 years of experience performing for weddings and events, there is not much I have not seen! In 2016, I formed the Blackstone Valley String Quartet with musicians I had known for over a decade. I had already established a successful teaching career, but I was eager for an opportunity to regularly perform. Over the past 7 years, we have expanded our core network of musicians well beyond the traditional string quartet.

I am incredibly passionate about making great music of all styles and genres and I am obsessed with the details! You can find me on any given day pouring over organizational tools, making spreadsheets and strategizing about how we can possibly make what we do better, more consistent and more fun.

When I am not in the office, performing or teaching I am a wife and mom of 2 littles. We spend our off days going on hikes and cultivating our indoor jungle.

Get in touch with us to see how we can craft your perfect musical vision!

These girls are AMAZING! We had the strings trio accompany our wedding mass and it was the absolute best decision we could have made. Their beautiful music elevated the whole mass and still gives me the chills! Everyone was absolutely blown away by their playing. The process couldn’t have been easier to book the trio for our day — Sylvia was extremely responsive, professional, and went above and beyond to learn a couple songs that were special to our ceremony. Thank you for making our day truly magical!!
