Customer questions
Do you have different line-up options?
The line-up is as follows: Violin ( occasional harp / guitar).
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
I will endeavour to be flexible with your changed timings as this is an important event for you. Please let me know within two weeks of the event if there are time changes.
How much time do you need to set up?
I usually take 30 minutes to set up as I am an acoustic player there is not much PA set up needed.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
The set list is there as a guide and between us I believe we can choose the perfect piece for your event.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes definitely, I bring my own instrument to play acoustically.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
I will endeavour to learn any requested pieces, however there is a time limit on this so would advise 2 weeks notice of any changes to a set list.
What do your clients love most about your performances?
The intimate nature of solo violin being played. I aim to capture a sense of romance and happiness throughout my set.

I have played at Galgorm Castle Resort and Spa, Belfast, Kirknewton Stables, Edinburgh, The Playfair Library, Edinburgh, McEwan Hall, Edinburgh.
