In my life as a violinist, I have travelled the world performing classical, folk, jazz and pop music as a soloist, with orchestras, in concert halls, festivals, parties, weddings and functions. Whilst I specialise in classical music, I am also keen on folk music and love a good cèilidh!
I have a master's degree in classical violin performance and completed further training in Moscow with musicians from the Bolshoi Theatre. I was the artistic director of a Baroque ensemble in Moscow and a founder of an ensemble recently featured on Classic FM. As a soloist, I've performed in a broad range of settings from marriage proposals, weddings and birthday parties to the FIFA World Cup Committee cocktail party and the Queen’s Birthday Party Celebration in Moscow. My clients include the British Embassy in Moscow, the Embassies of Denmark, the Netherlands, New Zealand and the USA, the Royal Signals and the Royal Navy.
I take great joy in collaborating with my clients to select and arrange the perfect soundtrack for their big day. If you’re looking to add a touch of elegance and romanticism to your event, look no further—I would be delighted to help create unforgettable memories through music.

If your event is outside, I require shelter. A parasol or gazebo will do!
No. I am an acoustic performer.
Please provide full name and post code of the venue and if I will be required to perform outside.
No.
I performed for a party for the FIFA 2018 World Cup in Moscow. I've also performed in such renowned concert halls as The Moscow Philharmonia and London's Queen Elizabeth Hall.
I'm always inspired by Antonio Vivaldi and never tire of playing his wonderful Four Seasons!
I've been playing for parties, weddings and corporate events for over 10 years. I love bringing my music to new places and seeing how it helps create the perfect atmosphere for special occasions.
I love playing for many different kinds of events, but I've got to say that weddings are my favorite.
I usually arrive early to set up my music stand and to get a feel for the venue. Normally I would play for 45 minutes before having a break. Of course, I can play for shorter or longer periods, it always depends on the needs of my clients.
I'm very happy to play outside but require a flat surface for my music stand and and shelter from strong sun or rain.
Of course! I am always happy to take requests if they are given in advance.
Beautiful performance, easy to work with.
I always try to be flexible to help your event run smoothly. If something changes in the run up to the event, just let me know.
