Reception

Wedding Reception & Event Music

LIVE music transforms any event into an occasion:

Not all events I cover are weddings – I have played for gallery openings, business events, garden parties, birthdays, anniversaries, vernissages, funerals, & charity functions…

If you do not require ceremony music or are hosting a celebration other than a wedding, then the ‘Diamond’ or ‘Elegance’ options may be perfect for you.

Diamond

Ideal for your champagne reception, canapés, wedding breakfast, evening function, rehearsal dinner, welcome drinks or meal, cocktails, farewell banquet, engagement party, birthday, anniversary… This option also includes your favourite song arranged for no extra charge – for example, for your first dance number or your ‘special song…’ You may also choose individual songs to be played from over 12 hours of extensive repertoire in order to create your own unique playlist, or leave the choice up to me.

From 90 minutes to 4 hours of music, including:

Your favourite song arranged for no extra charge.
Option to create a bespoke playlist by choosing some or all of the songs to be played.
PA hire & backing music (including during any necessary breaks).

Elegance

Perfect for a birthday party, anniversary, business launch, vernissage, garden party, charity event… Elegance allows you to choose from 5 different musical themes, taking all the work out of choosing your event music! Also ideal for your cocktails, champagne reception, vin d’honneur, wedding breakfast, evening function, rehearsal dinner, welcome drinks or meal, farewell banquet, or engagement party…

Allow me to select a mix of popular classical repertoire, show tunes & film music, with contemporary pop, classic love songs & jazz standards added for good measure… Or choose from these five themed playlists:

In the Lounge With… Smooth, chilled-out repertoire, perfect as a background to dining, cocktails, business events…

That’s Showbiz! Two hours of Show Tunes, Movie Themes & Rat Pack Classics. With backing ranging from Big Band to Full Symphony Orchestra, this set really packs a punch!

Simply Classical… Romantic Classics & Opera Favourites arranged, by me, for ‘cello & piano or ‘cello ensemble. Perfect for more formal occasions.

Pop Goes ‘Cello… Take a musical journey from the ’60s onwards with Modern & Classic Popular Music ranging from The Beatles, The Eagles, Eric Clapton & Billy Joel to Bruno Mars, Adele, Ed Sheeran & One Direction!

‘Cello plus One… Modern & Classic Popular Music mixed with Traditional & Classical favourites, Music Hall & Movie Themes, all delicately arranged for just two instruments: The classic combination of ‘cello & piano.

Please note: Special requests are not included. You may choose the genre from the options listed above, but not the individual songs to be played. Example playlists are available on request. If you wish to specify or request songs, please choose the ‘Diamond’ option.
