Customer questions
Do you have different line-up options?
Line up for solo weddings is
Violin.
There is the option for solo (unaccompanied) violin which can be played acoustically (unamplified) or through a PA system.
Alternatively, performances can be played with backing tracks (available only with PA system)
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
I can be flexible with timings to a degree.
How much time do you need to set up?
I would recommend 45 minutes to set up with a PA system.
Without a PA system I can be ready inside of 10/15 minutes.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
If you have favourites from my set list, I am happy to try to include these in my performance.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes - I bring all my own equipment sufficient to perform. I would require a power source if performing through my PA system. I do not carry lighting, however.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
I am happy to look at specific pieces as an addition to my set list. There is a fee of £60 for up to 3x additional pieces. Requests should be made at least 14 days prior to the performance to ensure sufficient time to prepare.
