James hired Jessica Tomey Violinist for a Wedding (available in East Lothian)

“Claire was fantastic! Our wedding was total chaos until the last second with plans being changed late on due to poor weather. Claire was an absolute professional. Having only booked her the night before and with little in the way of direction, she came in, got herself set up, no one was available to go through the ceremony with her but she performed perfectly as if we had rehearsed the whole thing many times over. I’m so glad we booked her, it really added sophistication to our small intimate wedding. She also performed an hour of pop/contemporary music afterwards which everyone really enjoyed. I would recommend her 100%.”

FAQs about hiring Wedding Violinists in East Lothian

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore

What kind of music can a violinist play?

Pretty much anything! Violinists will usually be most comfortable playing classical music, but that doesn't mean they won't be able whip up fresh renditions of your favourite pop, folk, or jazz tunes. Best to check first before asking them to play krautrock though.

Will I need to provide the violinist with any equipment?

Other than a seat for breaks, probably not. If your venue is small, they will likely play unamplified. All they'll need to make the music happen is their violin, a bow, and a receptive audience (oh, and probably a music stand). If your venue is larger, they should be able to provide amplification.

Do violinists normally play with backing tracks?

It depends. If you only want the violinist’s performance to include classical pieces, they probably won’t need backing tracks. If the violinist’s performance includes pop songs or other styles, they may be able to provide backing tracks to fill out their performance. They’ll often perform the melody line of popular tunes, alongside pre-prepared backing tracks (think: ‘Perfect’ by Ed Sheeran, or ‘Skyfall’ by Adele - these songs sound great played on violin!).
