Customer questions
Do you have different line-up options?
Yes! I can provide string quartet, trio and duo as well as cello duo.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
I always try my best to be as flexible as possible to ensure your event runs as smoothly as it can. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event then just let me know!

As an acoustic cellist, I need around 15-30 minutes to set up.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Of course!
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes, I bring my cello and myself and that’s pretty much it - all I need is a chair (!)

Absolutely. I’m happy to arrange something (prior to discussion and with notice at least a week before the event) to make your event as special as possible.
