Izabela was very professional and quick to respond to messages. She played extremely well at our wedding reception and was even willing to learn new songs upon request in a very short space of time which she performed brilliantly! We would definitely recommend her!

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Clients love the versatility and impact of my performances. I can perform any genre, from classical and jazz to pop, rock, blues, and folk. I play both acoustic and electric violin, and my theater background allows me to create visually stunning shows. Whether through striking attire, unique instruments, LED effects, backing tracks, or choreography.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

I have performed at some of the world's most prestigious venues, including the Berlin Philharmonie (2021), Shanghai Grand Theatre (2018), and Royal Albert Hall (2025). My versatility extends beyond concert halls—I have also played at luxury destinations like Joali Being Maldives Resort (2024) and on the main stage of London Fashion Week (2017).

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

As I am opened to all of the genres my inspiration comes from different sides and from different artists. I have always admired classical violinists who are not only technically fluent but open minded to different types of music like for example - Nigel Kennedy.

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Royal Albert Hall with orchestra in 2025 and New Year's Artist showcase in the Maldives 2024.

Do you have different line-up options?

I can perform solo or as part of an ensemble, depending on the event's needs. I can collaborate with a cellist, violist, or another violinist for duos or larger string ensembles. If the venue provides a piano or keyboard, I am also open to performing on both violin and piano or partnering with a pianist for a duo performance.

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

If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let me know at least week in prior so I can make a suitable adjustments.

How much time do you need to set up?

My set up time is quick, ususally between 15 and 30 minutes.

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

Absolutely! I am happy to provide you with my regular playlist or add anything you would like to hear on your event. I am very flexible in this aspect.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, I do bring my own equipment including instrument, stand, PA system (if you choose) and alternatively other adjustments depending on an event type and client's wish.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

I am a fast learner and a classically trained musician, capable of performing any song, piece, or genre you request. In addition to classical music, I have experience in jazz, pop, r&b, rock, reggae, blues, variety of folk music, as well as Middle Eastern and Bollywood tunes.
