Mari is a professional violinist and violist based in Western NC and Upstate SC. 20+ years of performing has led Mari to performances in Europe and throughout the United States East Coast. She has performed for the National ASTA conference and has also been featured on CanvasRebel as well as Classical Jabber.

Mari reached out multiple times to verify my plan and arrived the day of an hour before to set up. I would recommend her to anyone who would like to make their event special!
