JAM Duo are a Cello and Piano Duo who provide music for weddings and events all over the UK.
Based in the Cotswolds, we are often asked to play at weddings in Hampshire. Hampshire is the perfect blend of city, coast and country, blessed with the natural beauty of two National Parks and thriving culture, with history and heritage at its heart.
First settled about 14,000 years ago, Hampshire’s recorded history dates to Roman Britain, when its chief town was Winchester, then known as Venta Belgarum. The county was recorded in the 11th century Domesday Book, divided into 44 hundreds. From the 12th century, the ports grew in importance, fuelled by trade with the continent, wool and cloth manufacture, fishing and large shipbuilding industries. By the 16th century, the population of Southampton had outstripped that of Winchester.
Fast forward to today and Hampshire is awash with wedding venues and inspiration for your wedding day.
