Virtuoso violinist can perform as a soloist in a variety of formats. Versatile improviser and multi-instrumentalist composer ( violin, fiddle, mandolin, piano/keys) has worked with music legends and rock stars. I've played in many scenarios, many unimaginable! I also teach lessons here in Minneapolis, also via Skype. And, something new in development: Pet Remembrance Ceremonies. The "magic" comes from my abilities of having perfect pitch, and a retentive memory for many songs upon request. I love recording sessions as well, having been featured on many recordings.
Jim was absolutely incredible and truly elevated the wedding to a level of magic we didn’t even know was possible. We contacted him on short notice and he was so professional, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic about making the day special.
Jim went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect—learning the favorite songs and adapting to any changes with grace and ease. The music he played during the ceremony brought tears to our eyes and gave every moment an emotional depth that guests were raving about. Guests were so impressed with how beautiful his playing was.
If you’re looking for someone who combines extraordinary talent, professionalism, and an ability to create unforgettable moments, Jim did just that. Hiring him was one of the best decisions made for the wedding day.

Response from Jim Price Violinist:
Hi Paige! Thanks so much for including me in your wedding! I have played quite a few in my life but yours will burn on in my memory bank. Everyone was so nice and the voyage up there was memorable as well! Jim Price
Jim was great to work with and provided our event with great music!
From booking through the show, Jim was incredible to work with. Guests of our networking event raved about Jim’s performance. Will 100% be working with Jim again!
Response from Jim Price Violinist:
Thanks, Thad! The feeling is mutual, and I look forward to future encounters! JP
I asked Jim and his fellow musicians to play classical music for my mom’s celebration of life service at the cemetery. She loved classical music and I was determined to make sure there was live music at her service. Jim and The Lovely Strings trio delivered! Jim was attentive to what I wanted and the trio was prepared and performed the perfect selections of music. I received many positive comments about the music from guests. I highly recommend Jim Price and the Lovely Strings trio.
Response from Jim Price Violinist:
It was our pleasure to play for your remembrance of your Mom.
The weather was nice and it was a beautiful day,
and so were the people we met.. Thanks for having us! JP
Jim played at the interment of my husband. He played his fiddle per my request. He suggested several bluegrass/ country music songs. He played Will the Circle Be Unbroken and Amazing Grace accompanying himself on a keyboard. He would have played more numbers if I had wanted. Excellent musician. Arrived early. Highly recommend.
Jim provided some beautiful music for my mom’s graveside funeral service. He has a wide variety of songs in his repertoire and played a nice mix, which included many of her favorites. The beautiful violin music added the perfect touch to the celebration. Thanks, Jim.
Response from Jim Price Violinist:
Thanks, Connie..I think your mom would be proud of how well you put it all together, to give her such a great sendoff. I really enjoyed doing the research for the musical elements of this touching event. Thank you! Jim Price
He was the perfect musician for our open house! He arrived early, played beautifully, and the guests were very happy.
