Marvill is the ultimate professional and an extremely talented violinist. I hired him to play Christmas music at my Christmas dinner that I hosted at my home for my family & friends. First of all, he arrived on time (a few minutes early to be exact) which was impressive. Marvill not only played Christmas music, but at my request, he also played "Human Nature" and "Total Praise." My family & friends sang & danced to the music that he played & were an awe of his talent. To say that he is talented is an understatement. I wish that I could give him "100" stars. I will definitely hire him again when I have my 60th birthday celebration in a few years! Thanks, Marvill for a job well done!!!

Thank you so much for your review, Lorrie! It was an honor and I'm looking forward to working together again :)
Wow! Marvill is fantastic and so talented! We hired him for our corporate event to provide music in our registration area for our meeting. Rave reviews from all our attendees that had the pleasure of listening to him play. So unique! We will definitely be in touch with him for future entertainment when needed!

We received so many compliments after the wedding about how great Marvill was. He is organized, prompt, very professional and SO talented. He played everything and more from our playlist selected. I'd hire him again and again and again. I can't speak highly enough of him. He is so great!

We hired Marvill to play for our 1-hour cocktail reception during our wedding. Leading up to the day, he was responsive, professional, and clear about his process. The day-of, it was a joy to see our many guests enjoying his playing. We had several guests come up to us and remark on how talented he is and how fun it was to have him at the wedding. For our guests, the strings elevated the setting and the songs we selected really spoke to the millennials. Highly recommend booking him for your event!

Thank you so much for having me and Happy New Year!
A local arts appreciation group (The Pierians, Incorporated) in Howard County invited Marvill The Violinist to perform at a recent Christmas party at the newest Busboys and Poets in Columbia, Maryland. Marvill was instrumental in adding energy, spark and joy to the event. He played a variety of music including songs from his new nChristmas album and popular tunes from his playlist. The guests enjoyed the party. I would recommend Marvill to any event. He adds musical value.

Today was a great day! I had a Jazz Seafood Brunch at my house in celebration of my daughter’s return home. See I haven’t been able to hold, hug, or kiss my 34 t/o daughter since before COVID. Therefore, in order to celebrate her temporary return we had a jazz brunch.
MARVILL Took this B+ event and turned it into an A++ event. Not only is he super talented & a class act- He was punctual and extremely polite & professional. The only negative thing is that I wished I could have afforded to have play him longer. As he is & was EVERY PENNY! S.R. Ridley, A Nurse You Can Trust!
Marvill was one of the highlights of our wedding. He played all requested songs from instrumental to r&b and hip hop songs. He even played his own original music. So many of our guests complimented the live music and how it enhanced the ceremony. Marvill even stayed later than planned to play during our first dance. He is very easy to work with, provided amazing service and at a great price. My only regret is that I wasn't able to listen to him during cocktail hour. I highly recommend him for you event!

Thank you Chavar! It was an honor and a pleasure to work with you both as well 🙏🏾
I am late in writing a review but I hired Marvell for a birthday surprise at the W hotel suites in DC for my boyfriend whom we had just had a son a few weeks prior , and with Covid we wanted something intimate n safe from interactions. He was very professional, kindest of hearts.. he worked within our budget and was there on time even played alike but past his agreed contract.
The music the ambiance he created for us: just as a couple with our child was just awesome. It’s been 6 months in and I still remember him like it was yesterday. I will for sure hire him again. Thank you M for everything. Looking forward to having you again soon.
From our family to yours,
Blessings

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. Happy New Year and I look forward to working with you again soon!
I planned an exciting proposal for my fiance and with COVID, things were a little difficult. I had a lot of stuff planned that day and was worried about everything running smoothly and on time. Throughout my communication with him, he was very responsive. Marvill did not disappoint on the exciting day.
My fiance is still replaying that video as one of her favorite memories from that day. He followed instructions to the T and was hidden in our hotel room, when we first walked in. As soon as my fiance walked in he started playing the violin and the song I requested, as planned. My fiance was in such awe and didn't really know what was going on at first. However, he did not let her reactions (happy) distract him and kept playing. That is a memory she will cherish forever and I thank him for creating that memory for us. Dont hesitate to book him for any event.

Asking someone to marry you is one of those moments that you’ll remember forever. You want it to be so special, so memorable and as close to perfect as it can be. Marvill The Violinist helped make it happen — he was the icing on the cake and was the one who gave folks chills as people listened to his beautiful talent. If you’re on the fence, do it. It’s something you don’t do everyday and worth every dollar in the long run.

Thank you, Elijah! It was an absolute honor to play for the big moment!
First and foremost, contracting with Marvill was a testament to his professionalism and what could be expected on the performance day. I had never booked a violinist before and had quite a few questions. Marvill was extremely responsive and left no questions unanswered. Additionally, our telephone contact led me to decide that he would be a great addition to my event.
My guests were in awe to see a violinist at my “speakeasy Soiree” (Birthday Party). Marvill truly wowed everyone who was present. Several people have asked about him since the party. I highly recommend him.
Violinist
I asked Marvill to play at our proposal yesterday and I could not have been happier with the decision. He was flexible (I changed the date and location three times), punctual (showed up early), communicative (responded promptly), and, most of all, talented. He performed the requested songs beautifully and on time. He was really a pleasure to work with and I would suggest him to anyone looking for a reliable and gifted violist.
Violinist
It was amazing, entertaining and he has such a wonderful and kind personality. I definitely will be hiring him again for more events. You can watch his videos but its nothing like seeing the performance in person, I was amazed.
Violinist
From the moment of contact Marvill was very professional, nice and accommodating to us. His shared his gift of sound with us and it was amazing. As I write this review on honeymoon- I just received a text from a friend asking for Marvell’s contact information. 😊 God bless you Marvill and thank you so much for your performance at the wedding!
Violinist
I used Marvill for my engagement proposal and he did an awesome job all around. He even provided some suggestions for songs when I had trouble picking them and always made time for any questions I had via text/calls. Definitely recommend using Marvill for any of your special moments in life!

For a swank Chicago Loop wedding! Guests can't stop talking about Marvill! He is truly an amazing talent, so professional, so down to earth and yet he makes this heavenly music you will never forget! I can't thank him enough for flying to Chicago for this ceremony!
I hired Marvill for my daughter’s Graduation party and words cannot express how talented this young man is...everyone was WOW-ed!! Out of 5 stars, he was a 10!! He is an extremely gifted violinist with exceptional musical talent- plays beautifully!! In hindsight, I wish I would have hired him for a longer time- we didn’t want it to end!!

Marvill’s bow dances across genres, from hip-hop beats to soulful ballads, creating an enchanting fusion.

Additional Booking Notes
Staging:
A clean, uncluttered stage allows Marvill to move freely. Minimalistic design works well.
If available, a raised platform or stage enhances visibility for the audience. Consider backdrop elements that resonate with Marvill’s brand—perhaps a fusion of architectural patterns and musical notes.

Instrumental Tracks:
Marvill’s playlist of instrumentals accompanies his live performance. If Marvill collaborates with a DJ, the songs must be in their original pitch and key signature.
