No.
Born 1971.
Might be fun to have a 1971 song.
But classical is fine too.
Fantastic!

Excellent performer, Professional Delivery
We had Josh play during our Christmas cocktail party and he was a hit. He texted us prior to the event and was clear and professional in his communications and he showed up early and performance-ready. The music was fantastic and he delivered exactly what we hoped for. We will absolutely book him again and we’re extremely pleased with the music and professionalism he provided. Thanks, Josh!

Good Riddance by Green Day.
I’ll also be playing The Circle Game by Joni Mitchell, Girl on Fire by Alicia Keys and maybe The Man Who Loves You the Most, by Zach Brown Band, BUT it’s not critical that the cellist accompany on anything but Good Riddance by Green Day.
Stephanie is Wonderful!
Professional, talented, just all around wonderful. I’m definitely hiring her again.
A cellist is a great way to add some class to your next event. Whether performing with an ensemble or solo, this beautiful stringed instrument can soothe any soul with its deep riveting sound. A cellist can add something unique to any type of music from classical to jazz to pop, and to any type of event. From private or corporate events to weddings, conferences, and festivals, hiring a cellist is a great way to entertain guests.
There are a few things you should consider when hiring a cellist. First, be sure to listen to audio and watch video samples. You want to be sure you are satisfied with the sound and look of the performer before you book him/her. Next, get references and read reviews. Talk to people in the area who have seen the performer and/or have booked them in the past. Feedback is the best way to ensure you are going to be satisfied with your choice. Last, always get a contract. Read the contract carefully and work out any details in regards to deposit requirements, length of performance, scheduled breaks, attire, travel, and lodging. Watch for specifications made by the performer and be sure you can meet them. Search for Cellists in Washington, District Of Columbia above.
