Music has been an inseparable part of my life for as long as I can remember. I was born in Ukraine into a family of musicians - my mother and aunt were pianists, my grandfather a choir conductor, and my grandmother an opera singer. Surrounded by music from birth, I began playing the violin at the age of three and a half, and by six, I was already performing in my first competition. From that moment, I knew that music wasn’t just something I did - it was who I was. Throughout my childhood and teenage years, I devoted myself fully to my craft. I became a laureate of numerous regional, national, and international competitions even before entering the music college at fifteen. I graduated a year early, after just three years, and continued my studies at the prestigious Ukrainian National Tchaikovsky Academy of Music. This strong classical foundation became the heart of my musical voice - one that I later expanded into modern, electric, and crossover styles. Over the past thirteen years, I’ve had the privilege to perform all around the world - from the grand stages of five-star hotels and luxury resorts in Egypt and Saudi Arabia to vibrant festivals, weddings, and private events across Asia and Europe. I’ve played on cruise ships around the United Kingdom, collaborated with international DJs, singers, and saxophonists, and performed solo in elegant lounge venues and concert halls. These diverse experiences have shaped me into a versatile and confident artist who can adapt to any atmosphere - whether it’s a high-energy party or an intimate, romantic evening. What makes my act unique is the emotional connection I create with my audience. For me, the violin isn’t just an instrument - it’s a way to speak directly to people’s hearts. Every note I play is meant to tell a story, evoke a feeling, or spark a memory. I love blending the elegance of classical technique with the energy of modern music - from pop and R’n’B to dance, lounge, and cinematic soundscapes. My electric violin allows me to bridge worlds, creating performances that feel both timeless and fresh, traditional yet bold. I believe music has a rare power to unite people, to make them pause, feel, and simply be present in the moment. That’s why I perform - to bring beauty, emotion, and connection wherever I play. Today, I continue to refine my craft and collaborate with other artists and event professionals across the UK. My approach is always personal and professional: I take pride in tailoring each performance to the event’s atmosphere, ensuring every detail - from repertoire to visual presentation - complements the experience perfectly. Whether it’s a wedding, a corporate event, or a private celebration, my goal is always the same: to make it unforgettable through music.

Sophie brought so much soul to our special day. Amazing repertoire! Her music set the mood perfectly - emotional during the ceremony, joyful during cocktails. She’s such a professional and such a warm person too. Very cooperative and fabulous looking, punctual and polite ❤️ And I saw that special talent. She knew exactly what our guests wanted and what was the perfect song for each of our special moments! Incredible! We’re so grateful we found her!
