Catherine and her colleague David were absolutely amazing. From communication, and flexibility to performance on the day we couldn't fault them. All of our guests commented on how brilliant they were. Thank you for being part of our day!

4 years ago, for a Wedding in Hazlewood Castle

Our wedding wouldn’t have been the same without the wonderful music provided by Catherine who played the cello and by David who played the piano. Together they sounded beautiful and many of our guests complimented them. I had emailed Catherine suggesting some songs we liked and she had suggested some also, together it was a perfect combination. I cannot thank them both enough for the beautiful music they played and creating such a wonderful atmosphere for all our guests it really made our wedding day extra special!

Catherine has played at several concerts raising funds for my charity, St Nicks. Her professional performance was always much admired by our concert goers and Catherine is great to work with.
