The audibility of a string instrument outside varies depending on the setting, background noise and number of people present. The outside temperature, wind and amount of buildings or trees enclosing the area all alter the sound's projection. For a small outdoor gathering set in a gazebo or small yard, a string duo or trio suffices. A beach wedding or large event requires a string quartet for the sound to carry.
