The music was beautiful and exactly what what we wanted! Abigail and her team were professional and sounded wonderful-what an accomplished group of musicians!
String Trio
We worked with Abigail for a short session for my wife's birthday weekend. My wife loves the cello, and Abigail was willing to take song requests that my wife likes. Abigail communicated very well and was enthusiastic about the event. Her playing was beautiful! Highly recommended.
Cellist
Abi was wonderful. On time, performed beautiful selections with a lovely warm tone, and was very personable. She made my mom's funeral reception more uplifting and peaceful for the mourners. Highly recommend! (Ask her to share videos of her playing since as of this review she did not yet have them on gig salad.)
Cellist
Abby was not able to perform at the last minute; she sent another cellist friend of hers, Cameron.
He did a great job.

Will definitely use again. She made our affair elegant and classy! Her talent is tremendous, and we are so grateful she shared her gift of music with our library!
Cellist
Abigail performed at my niece's quinceanera, and my entire familia was blown away. Never have I seen a cellist do the things that she does. Her rendition of "the Swan" had my abuelita crying. And to think - we almost went with someone else!

Abi was great, she did a great job! Would definitely recommend. She played classical, pop and even requests.

This cellist is fantastic, and was so good at adjusting on the fly to any thing we needed! She can play anything ranging from pop tunes to classical music and crushes it no matter what. Really added a great vibe to our event and would certainly recommend her for anyone else.
