Frequently asked questions


Most singers (classical) are self-contained and provide their own equipment which is suitable for typical situations. Even though the act generally plays acoustically, if your event is to be held in a large venue, or you have more than 300 guests, we recommend that additional sound equipment should be used. Always ask your musicians about their sound system requirements.

Each event is different but the typical performance time for singers (classical) is 2 x 45 minutes sets within a 2 hours period. Some acts are happy to play longer sets or additional sets. Often, breaks can be negotiated but you should be aware that the price may increase if the musicians need to be onsite for a longer period of time.

Booking singers (classical) as early as possible increases the chance of securing their availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many acts also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged performances for clients with just a few hours' notice.

You should always check whether or not your act is prepared to play outdoors. Weather conditions such as wind, rain, or extreme temperatures can affect the performance and the instruments. If you are planning an outdoor event you should be prepared to offer a flat surface for performers as well as a cover in case of unexpected rain.

The cost of hiring musicians can vary significantly depending on the type of act. The average price is currently £262. Budget-level acts may be available for as low as £35, while top-tier acts can command prices as high as £998.

"We hired Mehreen to sing at our Christmas Ball. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a classical singer. What a voice! She sang classical and modern opera to suit our theme. She was professional at all times. Communication with Mehreen was excellent, answering my questions no matter how small. I will be keeping Mehreens details on file for future events and I will certainly be recommending her to others."

Victoria's review of Mehreen Shah - Soprano

Hire Singers (Classical)

Ideal for:

A Classical Soprano or Tenor will make a lovely addition to a wedding ceremony or reception. For example, singing in the church or civil ceremony lifts the whole experience for you and your guests and makes for an even more special atmosphere. The singers listed can perform with an organist that's already in situ or can provide a harpist, guitarist, string quartet, accordionist or pianist to accompany them.

When booking Singers (Classical):

If your event is taking place in a religious setting, make sure that you check with your Vicar, Priest or Registrar about what is and isn't allowed. For example, at a civil ceremony you are usually not allowed to have any religious songs or readings and in some churches you are not allowed to have any secular songs, secular being anything that isn't religious.

Some classical singers will be instrumentalists themselves, others may use backing tracks to perform, and it is important to discuss this in advance with your prospective act.

Prices for Singers (Classical):

As a solo performer, most classical singers will charge a minimum of £150. However, if you seek to have an instrumentalist accompany them, there will be an additional charge. If you're looking to cut down on travel costs, use the "advanced search" feature to hire singers near you.
