Customer questions

How much time do you need to set up?

10-15 mins

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

I always liaise with clients about what type of music they are after, any requests that aren’t “classical” can be played as well but it would be most preferable if sheet music was provided, if not an a charge for arrangement may be applied.

Yes, just a violin and a stand!

Yes, however depending on what it is and how challenging it is a fee may be negotiable in person (due to the practice time it may take up).
