About Julia Seibert

A miniature string quartet. 10+ years’ experience giving events an elegant touch with six strings.
Guitarist
London

With over a decade of experience performing across the UK, Europe, Turkey, and the United States, I bring the elegance and richness of a string quartet distilled into the intimacy of the guitar. Whether it’s a wedding, a corporate function, or a private soirée, I create tailored music that brings atmosphere and refinement to each event. I studied classical guitar in Berlin and London, completing my Master’s degree with Distinction at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance. My playing has been described as “meaningful and profound, conveying things beyond words,” “charming and enchanting,” with a “beautiful, warm sound and refined technique.” I’ve been fortunate to receive recognition such as the Beatty Competition prize for Best Interpretation in Washington, D.C., the Montagu Cleeve Prize for Guitar, and the medal for highest achievement in my department at graduation. Performance highlights include appearances at Wigmore Hall and the Painted Hall at the Old Royal Naval College in London, as well as concerts and events internationally; I’ve performed extensively at weddings, receptions, and private events, building a reputation for professionalism, adaptability, and elegance. My repertoire ranges from Bach, Handel, and Vivaldi to Spanish and Romantic favourites, as well as arrangements of popular classics. I also create many of my own arrangements for guitar, including Handel’s Water Music and Corelli’s Christmas Concerto, bringing orchestral works to life on a single instrument. This versatility allows me to adapt to each occasion, whether it calls for gentle background music, a standout piece for a ceremony, or a varied selection across the evening.

Julia is an extraordinarily talented musician who really made our wedding so beautifully special. Our guests were blown away by her and we cannot have imagined our day without her. A true professional, very timely, intuitive to our event needs and very collaborative with other performers and suppliers. I highly recommend Julia for any event.

We were all so very delighted to have Julia play at my party on Saturday evening. All our friends were very impressed with Julia's talent! And her selection of music was perfect! It was all so very special and a wonderfully memorable evening! Days later - I'm still getting compliments.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Clients often say my guitar feels like a string quartet in miniature: intimate, warm, and expressive.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

I’ve performed at venues including Wigmore Hall, the Painted Hall at the Old Royal Naval College, Lighthouse Poole, and Blackheath Halls. I’ve also played internationally in the United States, Turkey, Germany, and Portugal, both in concert settings and at private events and weddings.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

My biggest influences have been my teachers: Graham Devine, Piotr Pakhomkin, Eugenia Kanthou, and Arash Ahmadi. Each helped me discover a different side of the guitar: not just technique, but the never-ending possibilities that exist beyond its six strings. And it all started with my dad, who first put a guitar in my hands.

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

One of my most high-profile performances was the Luthiers’ Demonstration Concert at the Royal Greenwich Guitar Festival, where I was invited to showcase instruments by leading guitar makers.

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

Weddings and events rarely run exactly to schedule, but that’s no problem! I’m used to adapting. If things shift a little on the day, I’ll adjust so the music still fits seamlessly. For bigger changes to the plan, just let me know in advance and I’ll work with you to make it run smoothly.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually need around an hour to set up and soundcheck, sometimes a little longer depending on the space. This ensures everything is in place and the sound is balanced, so the music can flow seamlessly once your guests arrive.

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

Absolutely! I’ll share my repertoire list with you in advance, and you’re welcome to choose any favourites for your event. Most clients prefer to highlight a few must-have pieces and then leave me to shape the rest of the programme to suit the atmosphere on the day.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes! I provide everything needed for my performance, including my guitar and amplification (if required). All I need from the venue is a standard power source, a chair without arms, and an appropriate space to set up.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Yes! I’m happy to prepare special requests to make your event personal and memorable. I already have a wide repertoire, but if there’s a particular piece that isn’t on my list, I can usually arrange and learn it for you. I include one or two bespoke requests in my standard packages, and I’m glad to discuss additional pieces if you’d like more.
