Muireann recently performed at our event, and while I wasn't able to fully take in the music myself, the guests spoke highly of how it complemented the evening. I appreciated her flexibility in working within a tight timeline, which helped us pull everything together. If you're looking for a musician who can deliver under pressure, Muireann would be a good choice.
Response from Muireann Meiklejohn Music-Making:
Chelsea, thank you for your kind words. It is always great to work with Kelowna Foodie Hub!
Beautiful music for our wedding day. We are so happy!
Response from Muireann Meiklejohn Music-Making:
Thank you Hayley. It was a pleasure for Heather and I to play for the event!
Muireann’s beautiful music was the perfect addition to my daughter’s outdoor ceremony at 50th Parallel. Muireann not only played a lovely selection of solo music but learned an instrument version of the grooms favourite song and accompanied the DJ on a Taylor Swift song. The result was lovely. I would highly recommend Muireann as a talented, professional, accommodating musician to elevate any event.
Response from Muireann Meiklejohn Music-Making:
Natasha, thank you for your kind and eloquent praise. It was a pleasure!
A great experience having Muireann play at our wedding ceremony

Response from Muireann Meiklejohn Music-Making:
Dalphine, thank you so much for having me as a part of your beautiful ceremony. I wish you two all the happiness!
Communication with Muireann was great and it was a worry free and seamless on the day of the event
Thanks very much!
Response from Muireann Meiklejohn Music-Making:
Thanks Evan! It was a pleasure to play for your wedding ceremony.
I'm a musician who is working on a project that combines classical music with hiphop and poetry, one of the aspects of this project is having musicians perform original classical solo's in the songs. I was recommended Muireann for this project and engaged them to compose a violin piece, we met up and discussed the idea and I laid out my concepts and Muireann enthusiastically committed to their piece. We then later met up at recording studio where they showcased a well-written, engaging and exciting solo that they performed with enthusiasm and professionalism, and the piece came out wonderfully. I would recommend Muireann fully for future projects and would definitely work together again!
Muireann provided violin music for our art gallery reception while guests were arriving. In addition to the beautiful music which was appreciated by everyone, Muireann arrived on time as promised and communicated ahead of time to reconfirm the details.

From lilting folk tunes to lyrical classical melodies, this music will add a dimension of warmth and sparkle to your event. Whether as background music or as a main featured performance, the sonorous sounds of strings will surprise, delight, and lift your spirits!
Muireann developed a passion for the violin by age 5. Among their earliest music teachers were counted recordings of Peter and the Wolf and the Classic Kids album Tchaikovsky Discovers America.
As their passion developed into dedication, they took up viola as a secondary instrument. In their graduation concert with the Okanagan Youth Symphony, Muireann played a movement of Mendelssohn’s violin concerto in the first half and switched to viola for Dvořák’s New World Symphony in the second.
While their playing these days revolves mostly around classical music, they retain a deep love of fiddle playing, particularly in the Celtic traditional style. Muireann has been a faculty member at the Kelowna Community Music School since 2022, and retains a position as an auxiliary violinist with the Okanagan Symphony Orchestra.
