About Emma

I am a an International Acoustic/Electric Violinist. Music and performance is my life. I have played as a soloist and a part of many groups.
Violinist
Manchester
Public liability insurance of £1 million
Verified profile

I am a an International Acoustic/Electric Violinist trained at the renowned Royal Northern College of Music.Performance is my life, but more importantly creating the right atmosphere for each occasion. I have played as a soloist and a part of many groups and orchestras across the globe, I accept TV freelance work or touring with acts who require live musicians. I do not need sheet music to play and it is all done from memory. I am young , vibrant and open minded. I also love to dance, sing and act. I have studied each discipline since the age of four . Playing to fulfil my passion and perform to an audience who are drawn into my playing, getting my audience to listen and enjoy is an art in itself. Opportunities and being in the right place will only be available if you spread your wings and try different ventures. If Music be the food of love give me excess of it............................

Dear Emma We were so sorry you were unable to play at my Son's Wedding on Sunday 4th September, due to things beyond your control, I understand. However Gilanne who stood in for you, was excellent and thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. One or two of the guests were so impressed that you may be contacted in the near future. Also we hope we will be able to use 'your' services for our Golden Wedding next May, if all goes to plan. Many thanks. Elaine
