Felicity was amazing at my daughters wedding. She was accommodating with music choices and was flexible in where she played, easily moving rooms for ceremony and reception drinks. It was easy to book her. We kept in contact by email and had a telephone call a couple of weeks before the wedding for final sign off. I would definitely recommend Felicity and would use her again if the need arose…

Felicity prepared a short performance for the Greenwich Yacht Club's online (via Zoom) music themed club night, ranging from Bach to Rod Stewart. She gave a very enjoyable and polished performance and I would certainly book her again.

Do you have different line-up options?

I can perform solo (amplified or acoustic) or to accompaniment tracks.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I always try my best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let me know.

How much time do you need to set up?

I would usually like to arrive at least an hour before I am due to begin playing so that I have plenty time to set up, which takes 30 minutes or less.

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

You may choose any song from my list for any part of your event. if your chosen song isn't shown please just ask me as most requests will be possible given enough notice. For background music please choose up to 20 pieces from my list; for the rest of the performance I will choose pieces in a similar style.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes of course! My violin is acoustic but will carry well in most rooms. if enhancement is needed I have a small PA which is also wireless so I can perform anywhere. The accompaniment tracks will be played through the PA.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

If you would like me to play a piece that is not on my list please just ask me. I will endeavour to accommodate as many requests as possible; if the request is a piece that requires extra rehearsal I will quote individually per piece.
