Looking for elegant live music to create the perfect atmosphere for your event? I'm Alexandra, a professional cellist performing everything from beautiful classical favourites to pop and jazz.
Whether you're planning an intimate wedding ceremony, a drinks reception or a corporate dinner, I tailor the music to suit the atmosphere you want to create.
I provide a professional sound system suitable for events of up to around 50 guests, making the setup simple and hassle-free. My performances are perfect for drinks receptions, canapés, dinners, wedding ceremonies and other special occasions.
I've performed in leading concert halls across Europe and Canada, including Rudolfinum in Prague, Duke's Hall in London and Suggia Hall in Porto.
Although classically trained, I've also performed alongside artists including Simply Red, KT Tunstall and Caro Emerald at Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam and Ahoy Rotterdam.
Whether you're looking for elegant background music or a memorable musical centrepiece, I'll help create an atmosphere your guests will remember.

N/A
I come with a Bose S1Pro speaker, that amplifies me and my backing tracks for a venue of around 50 people.
If the performance is outside, I need to know if the space is covered from rain and sun.
Yes
I performed as a part of an orchestra in Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam for 18 000 people with Simply Red.
I've studied and played the cello for 28 years, I started gigging 15 years ago. I played classical concerts for big audiences, pop gigs, weddings, corporate events, proposals, wedding ceremonies, exhibition openings, album lunches.
I love playing all kinds of events, but my favourite are exhibitions/museums, corporate dinners and proposals.
I normally arrive around 45 minutes before to set up. I usually perform 1x60 minutes or 2x45 minutes sets, but I am flexible to accommodate the audience needs if discussed beforehand.
I can perform outside, but the place needs to be shaded and sheltered from rain and strong wind, since I play a wooden instrument.
I can learn specific songs upon a request if communicated early on. The clients are welcome to pick a set list from the repertoire or let me choose the best music for them.
Previous clients describe me as professional, joyful, musical, well-presented and providing sophisticated music for their events.
