🎶 Music & Style

Q: What kind of music do you play?
A: Everything from romantic classical pieces to pop covers, movie themes, hymns, Celtic, indie, Disney, and even Bridgerton-style mashups. Think Vivaldi to Taylor Swift — and yes, I take requests.

Q: Do you help with song choices?
A: Absolutely. I can send curated playlists for different parts of your event, or help you build a custom setlist based on your vibe.

Q: Can you play outdoors?
A: Yes, as long as there’s shelter from rain, strong sun, or snow. Violin and electronics are sensitive, but I’m happy to work with your coordinator to make it work!
