SIREN STRINGS:

It all began when two violinists, Marlo Zemartis, Debra Yavitz, and a cellist, Corinne Hymel,
decided to wield their musical talents and expertise to form a non-traditional quartet. They took

enchantment to sea travelers from miles around.

continually evolving their sound and music specialty. The quartet plays original arrangements
as well as original compositions written by the musicians themselves. Their repertoire ranges
from private music requests at weddings to Top 40 hits they have adapted specially for Siren
