Colette hired Michael Sullivan for a Wedding (available in Portsmouth)
"Michael was truly exemplary, in every aspect. Michael performed at my wedding ceremony as a solo violinist and he really made the afternoon a special and memorable one. We spoke a few times before the event and Michael was very clear about the day, what was possible and gave us the option to share songs that he would learn for us and perform on the day. That really sealed it for me, speaking to Michael and appreciating his desire to do his best for our special day. On the day he was prompt and communicated with me throughout. His performance was exceptional, all of our guests were impressed with his amazing repertoire. I would happily recommend Michael to anyone looking for a violinist for a special event, I will definitely consider Michael at the top of my list. Thank you again Michael. "

FAQs about hiring Wedding Violinists in Portsmouth
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!).
