Emil was great! Music was beautiful and spot on. He had to improvise through a couple of coordination hiccups and did so brilliantly. As a bonus he played much longer than expected. So many compliments from guests. Would not hesitate to book Emil, again!
The music was amazing! Thank you Emil for making our wedding day so special❤️
Emile came on time, arranged with the venue and set up. He was amazing and played all our favorites. Thank you for making it a special day for us!
Emil did a very good job for my proposal, he was easy to communicate with and even changed times for me a day ahead of the event! Highly recommend!
Wonderful music for a beautiful occasion! Thank you so much, Emil and Nakul. Your violin and keyboard skills added so much enjoyment and elegance to our family's event. Highly recommended! ~ Helen
Emil is truly a master of his craft. He made our wedding ceremony extra special by playing something unconventional as my husband and his groomsmen walked down the aisle. I truly appreciate Emil’s willingness to learn something new so our ceremony could be something memorable for both my husband and I.
They showed up early, played great music, were very professional. Made our event extra special. Thanks guys!
Emil was great. He played a mix of really great songs that everyone enjoyed and everyone kept making comments that he was killing it. Very nice guy and good to work with
Very professional great music selection. All my families and residents really enjoyed the lovely music.
Emil helped us with music selection and was easy to work with. Was a really nice touch to our wedding ceremony!
Emil was an amazing addition to my proposal. He played Ed Sheeran's "Perfect" for us on the violin. He worked with me on my plan, found our location at Sunset Cliffs, was on time, smartly dressed, and his music was beautiful. I highly recommend booking him for any event, large or small.
Emil was great!! I couldn't be happier. We hired him for our ceremony, he was there early, the communication was great. Everything went so smoothly and he did everything I had requested. Would definitely hire him again. He is a phenomenal violinist!
Emil added such a great element to my proposal! He was easy to work with and even learned my fiancés favorite song. Would definitely use him again
Emil was awesome! We had a wedding in the rain, and he was excellent about playing beneath an umbrella we set up for him. The music was on point, and he was incredibly kind and professional. 5 stars easy!
Emil was great! He arrived early to set up and was ready to play on the dot. He took requests that evening and had taken the time to learn a few requested songs. Very sweet man, we enjoyed his conversation before and after.
Emil
Was a wonderful addition to our Garden Party. He was a little loud at first and I was surprised he had a amplifier, but with a little communication it all worked out beautifully
We will definitely bring him back again 😊
I requested Emil to surprise my soon to be girlfriend at a dinner in Coronado. He was extremely helpful in coordinating the surprise with me, even with the restaurant in mind. He was very careful and mindful of the surprise, extremely passionate when playing and very very sweet. He played a few extra songs just because. I highly recommend him! You won’t be disappointed.
I planned a date night in the park with my girlfriend for our anniversary. Bread, cheese, a blanket on the lawn, sunset, and Emil on the violin. My girlfriend practically swooned when Emil started playing (perfect surprise). Emil was very helpful in coming up with song ideas, performed beautifully, and is a really nice guy.
Emil is a professional violinist. He did a great job on my event and many of my guests ask me for his contact info . I appreciate his talent and the extra time he spent with us.
Emil did a great job. I would definitely hire him again!
We used Gig Salad to look for a violinist for our wedding ceremony. A few people replied to our inquiry, but what got our attention was the responsiveness from Emil (Lux Ensemble). After a short email exchange, we agree to meet him for a private audition and music selection.
When we met with him, he first explained to us how only a Violin would not be so complete as having an ensemble.
As we did not have much understanding on what music to select, he went straight to business and started playing for us. His classical knowledge was amazing. I was impressed while observing him playing. And in the end, when he played Canon in D, my (then) fiancé started to cry. No doubts we were making the right choice.
On the ceremony day, as it was all crazy, he was able to keep the guests entertained with the beautiful classical music selection he was playing.
He was PERFECT during the ceremony. He was on time, perfectly dressed, great spirit, presence. Everyone on our ceremony said he was just PERFECT.
For sure I would hire him and recommend him to anyone (for a wedding or any other event)
Lux Ensemble was fantastic! My guest enjoyed the beautiful music that filled the air as they waited for the grand entrance . I'm glad I booked them... they were the finishing touch bringing out emotion and making my wedding a day I will never forget. They were on time and very professional! Thank You Emil
