About Us
Rebecca Kaltz founded the Horizon Strings Group in Ann Arbor, Michigan back in 2006. Rebecca has been playing weddings since she was ten years old, when her church pastor's daughter got married and she was hired to play, so she has a long history of performing in church, weddings and all types of events. You can find out more about her at www.rebeccakaltz.com What started as professional freelance musicians and colleagues getting together to play for events turned into a group of regular players being hired to perform throughout the Michigan, Indiana and Ohio areas all the time! We love to provide beautiful music for our clients, there are so many different genres and settings to have music - we really enjoy playing together since we've all become close friends over the years as well. Horizon usually plays over 50 events a year, in 2014, I believe the grand total was over 60 events- a record! We are performing almost every weekend, sometimes multiple events. Horizon is a group of professional string players who freelance and play in the Ann Arbor and Michigan areas. We are also string teachers, soloists, orchestral and chamber musicians available to hire with extensive performing experience. Voted #3 in Best Music for 4TheBest Detroit, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011.
