Niklas played the cello for us at our wedding in Norwich, and was absolutely brilliant. He played two specific pieces that we requested during the ceremony, as well as a selection of classical pieces during the reception. He was very helpful in chatting with us in advance of our wedding to make sure he knew what we wanted and what our plans were. Thank you very much for playing at our wedding, you were fantastic!

Niklas played at our wedding ceremony last week and really brought something special to the moment. Our guests loved hearing him play as they approached the church and were seated. He has been amazingly kind and accommodating, especially when learning a new song for the entrance of the bride. We really couldn't be more grateful, and more happy with his communication throughout and with the performance on the day. Thank you so much for making our day even more special. Would certainly recommend!

Booked for a farewell dinner at the end of a coach tour around Norfolk. Great performance, guests enjoyed it very much. Niklas was polite & professional. Also very flexible and accommodating when planning the event.

I hired Nik to play cello at the Sainsbury centre for a charity art auction for a student cause. We intended for him to only play for an hour but when asked to unexpectedly extend his playing he was more than prepared. His playing was light and airy; perfect background music and the perfect accompaniment to the event!

Nik performed at our wedding last year and provided a great accompaniment to our wedding reception, where he played the cello whilst our guests arrived. Many people commented on how well he played and how his music added to the beautiful setting. We would fully recommend Nik’s services to anyone who is looking for a musician for their wedding/party.
