About
I have had the privilege of performing as an international violinist in various countries such as Canada, USA, France, Italy, Spain, Belgium and Bulgaria. Throughout my career, I have been both a soloist and a chamber music player, showcasing my talent in numerous concerts and recordings. I have released three albums, including "Sound of the Kootenays" (2017), featuring my own compositions and "Paneurythmy" (2018), and "Tribute to Peter Deunov" (2018), where I showcase solo violin melodies composed by Peter Deunov.
You can easily find my music on popular platforms like Spotify, Deezer, Apple Music, and YouTube. One of my notable performances was in July 2019, where I had the honor of accompanying the Videlina Choir as a soloist during a series of concerts at the European Capital of Culture, Plovdiv 2019, in Bulgaria. During the same summer, I also gave captivating violin and cello duet recitals in Southern France. More recently, I participated in the Spanish tour with the Videlina Choir, performing in Barcelona, Soria, Toledo, and Granada in July 2023.
For over 20 years, I have been providing exceptional musical experiences for weddings, parties, and events throughout Canada and Europe. My repertoire encompasses a wide range of genres, from classical to fiddle music, film music, Spanish boleros and tangos, rock classics (including Beatles, Coldplay, Scorpions, Supertramp ...), Christmas music, and more. Whatever the occasion, I am passionate about delivering top-quality music and would be thrilled to enrich your event with my performances.
Additional Booking Notes
I only require my violin and a music stand, both of which I will bring myself.
Additionally, I have a small light that can be attached to the stand if needed, perfect for evening events or as an intimate lighting option. No microphone is necessary as the violin's sound is capable of projecting on its own, whether indoors or outdoors. I will require shade or a canopy for an outdoor performance since my violin cannot be exposed to sun or rain.
