Meet the Founder
Rebecca Hamilton
"We're not just providing background music. We're creating the soundtrack to people's most important moments."
I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago, where the Chicago Symphony Orchestra was part of our cultural fabric. After studying at Northwestern University, I continued to The Juilliard School in New York, where I learned what it really means to pursue musical excellence.
Today Project String Quartet plays weddings and events across the Midwest, from Chicago and St. Louis to Kansas City, Minneapolis and beyond. I built it on everything I learned along the way: the musical sophistication from conservatory training, the understanding of performance pressure from concert halls, and the appreciation for how music connects communities.
I've recorded with Ariana Grande, Andrea Bocelli, and Justin Timberlake. I've performed on soundtracks for House of Cards and Star Trek Discovery. Weddings rarely run on schedule. The processional starts late, the timeline shifts, someone asks for one more song. That studio training is what lets us adjust in the moment.
