I need at least 2m x 2m with close access to a power point (2 power sockets preferred).

Yes, I provide an amp' or PA.
I will consider using the venue's own sound system subject to certain conditions.

I would need to have a complete address and any information on the ideal place to unload the vehicle (eg nearest door, etc).

Yes, I can provide background music from Spotify or another source of your choice (eg phone, CD, ipod) in between sets.
We can select music or you can specify.

I have played at Wembley Stadium and also at the Royal Albert Hall. But the best venues have often been the smaller, more intimate ones.

Probably the most recent and memorable gig was a close friend's brother's baptism. I wrote a piece for it which I finished the night before I flew out to Italy. The ceremony was in a private church part of a hamlet in a stunning location in central Italy.
The audience were wowed by the music and I received excellent feedback.

-My greatest influences are: Sting, Stevie Wonder, Earth Wind & Fire, Bill Cantos, Jason Rebello, U2, Simply Red, Simon & Garfunkel, Bach, Vivaldi
-My favourite artists: Gregory Porter, Stevie Wonder, Incognito, Tom Misch, Jarrod Lawson, Sting, Clean Bandit
-My greatest song of all time: Lovely Day (Bill Withers) but there are many others!..

I was probably 10 years old when I first had my public gig. I accompanied an operatic singer in a condominium lobby in Italy! I had probably had a couple of recitals before that.
Since then I have played with orchestras, choirs, gospel choirs, ensembles, function bands, duos, DJ Orchestra acts, etc.

I have played at a variety of events and enjoyed most of them!
However, I like playing the most at events that are of significance and host an emotional importance in which I can 'tie a bow' of exquisiteness and leave a message of beauty. The most important are: weddings, ceremonies and yes, funerals.

I take pride in what I wear and in my presentation overall.
I generally dress very smart, which means wearing a suit, a bow tie or tie and sometimes a small extra bit of flair like a coloured hankerchief, etc.
I often wear a hat, as this is part of my signature style.
Sometimes, if I feel it fits the event, I dress smart-casual which I think is increasingly appropriate and appreciated.

I am bilingual in Italian and English.
I also speak fluent French.
I can understand and speak some basic Spanish.

Yes, I pride myself in being flexible, within reason.
Examples might be moving the starting time due to changes in the timeflow (eg guests are held back in traffic or at the church) or making one set list longer than another due to the flow of events or mood.
But please do discuss details in advance so that we can arrange things best for your event.

In general, I like to arrive in good time for most events.
My setup times are: around 30 mins for set up and around 25 mins for set down.

I typically perform for 45 minutes with a 15 minute break. But I am flexible and can play for a bit less or longer depending on how the event is going, general atmosphere/vibe and so on.

Yes, but subject to conditions such as: wind must be limited (especially if using a mic) and humidity low (no rain due to the nature of antique instruments).
Electric supply nearby is essential.
Shade is preferred but not essential.

I have a set list and repertoire but I will always try to tailor the music to the event, setting and atmosphere. Clients can also offer an indication of what kind of feel and vibe there are looking for.
I do accept requests. Please give plenty of notice in order to arrange backing tracks. A fee will normally be applied.

Clients normally describe my playing as emotional, moving and passionate.
My playing is often considered emotional and passionate but I also try hard to choose pieces that fit the moment.
My repertoire also includes up-beat songs like Wake me Up, Americano or Volare.
