Classically trained violinist available for weddings, special events, recording, etc. I have several years of formal training, as well as extensive freelance and event-playing experience. I also offer duos, trios, and quartets if you are looking for an ensemble. I would love to be part of your event and look forward to working with you!
Phenomenal performance for my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour! Julie was incredibly professional and took the time out to discuss music options with me and even took a last minute request. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and talented performer. 12/10 stars :)
Julie played absolutely beautifully for our wedding ceremony. She is friendly and a fast communicator. It is hard not to get emotional at your own wedding, but with Julie’s rendition of “Claire de Lune”? Impossible! Thank you for everything Julie!
Julie, did an amazing job! She showed up on time and was very professional and sweet. She is a great Violinist and knew lots of songs. I highly recommend Julie for your next event.
We hired Julie to play for our church Christmas program and she was simply excellent. We sent her the sheet music for her selections two days prior and she played them both beautifully. I received so many compliments from attendees and will definitely look to hire her again.
