Customer questions
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
London Palladium, Dominion Theatre (London), Cadogan Hall (London), Royal Albert Hall, Ambassador's Theatre (London).
Many many other small and beautiful wedding and event venues!
Do you have different line-up options?
Yes, I can provide a string duo, trio or quartet from my other page on Encore 'Vibellos String Collective'
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
I always try and be flexible with this as much as I can. If it's a significant amount more playing then we can look again as costs, but if its a simple change of time just let me know and I'll do my best to accommodate it! I'm always happy to talk through things like this!
How much time do you need to set up?
Maximum an hour, it's only a small PA system!
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Absolutely, I love to be guided by you on song choice. Every set list I make is personal to you!
You can either request songs or you can tell me your general style or the mood you want to create and I can make playlists based on your tastes. If you want specific songs, of course you're welcome to request them with enough notice!
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes I bring two small speakers and a mixing desk to play my backing tracks and amplify my violin if necessary.
I can also plug into another system if there is already one at the venue, can share with the DJ usually if they're ok with it!
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
Yes absolutely as long as you give me enough notice, 1 month in advance at least!
