Customer questions
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
Simply let me know as soon as you know of a change. Most of the time this won't be an issue.
How much time do you need to set up?
It takes about 20-30 minutes to set up my equipment and to warm up. I usually arrive an hour before I start playing to u
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Yes of course! You can create your own set list list for me to play, or alternatively give me an idea of what sort of music you're after and I'll create a set list especially for you. At the bottom of my songlist you will find my standard set list.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
As long as the song is playable on the Violin I can learn specific pieces no problem.
