Maria was first class from start to finish. The music was beautiful and we couldn’t have asked for more. Wouldn’t hesitate in recommending to anyone. Thanks for making our day so special.

Maria was absolutely fantastic - we needed a musician very last minute for our wedding, and despite the time constraints and the fact that the music was new, Maria did an amazing job of providing just the music we had hoped for. The music added such a special and unique touch to our wedding: Maria played it beautifully and it will be a treasure to look back at our video footage in the future and hear this beautiful music again. We can't recommend her highly enough, and we are really grateful for what she contributed towards our day with her skill, kindness and courtesy. We will certainly recommend her to our friends in the future. Thank you, Maria! :)

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Authenticity

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

I have played in various venues in Poland, Norway, United Kingdom and Japan

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

I have a diverse range of performance experience across various events, making it difficult to pinpoint a single high-profile gig. My performances include weddings, corporate events, classical concerts, film music showcases, and even pop festivals.

Do you have different line-up options?

I typically perform as a solo cellist, but I’m happy to arrange for a trio or quartet if that fits your event better. If you have specific preferences or ideas in mind, please let me know, and I can help coordinate the right musicians to complement my performance.

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

I always try my best to be as flexible 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 usually set up about 30 min before the performance time.

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

I create each set list individually after contacting you. I am always happy to chat and find what works for you and your event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

A chair.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Absolutely. Some pieces are more complicated though, and it takes more time to prepare. If you have any special wishes please get in touch and we will figure it out.
