FAQ about hiring a Violinist

How much does it cost to hire a violinist?

expand

On average, professional violinists cost $150 to $500 per hour. The exact price can vary depending on your location, travel distance, the violin player’s expertise, special song requests, and other specific event details.

Can I request specific songs or pieces to be performed?

expand

Violinists typically have a large repertoire of songs for you to choose from, including most popular classical music tunes and traditional wedding music. However, with enough notice, they can usually learn something new for your special event if you have a specific song request. Keep in mind this may result in an additional charge for the time they must spend learning the new music before the event.

What styles of music can violinists play?

expand

Violinists are usually classically trained and well versed in a variety of classical pieces. However, this is not the only style of music they perform! Some violin players also perform versions of pop, country, jazz, and even classic rock songs. An electric violinist is particularly good at creating a unique twist on popular tunes. Prior to booking, be sure to let your musician know what kind of sound you want for your wedding or special event.

If you’re looking for a fuller sound, inquire with your violinist about ensemble options. Many solo violin players can join up with other violin, viola, and cello players to create a string trio or quartet. The cost will be higher but it will allow for more music styles and arrangements.

How long do violin performances usually last?

expand

Violinists typically play in “sets” of 30-45 minutes. If your event is several hours long, you will want to discuss the length of their violin performance as well as the break times they’ll need in between sets.

Exact performance lengths will often vary based on the event. For a wedding ceremony, the violinist might just play a song or two for the bride and wedding party entrances and then leave. For other events, such as a cocktail hour or a corporate event, they might play background music throughout the entirety of the event.

What equipment does a violinist need?

expand

To perform, most violinists simply need seats, a music stand, sheet music, and their instruments. Unless you hire an electric violinist, the musician will typically perform acoustically so electrical power is not a concern unless the venue is large enough to require mics. Since each professional violinist is unique, ensure the day goes smoothly by asking your musician exactly what they need from you.

What events are appropriate for a violinist?

expand

Violinists are most commonly booked for weddings, as a wedding violinist is one of the most affordable performers for ceremony music. However, they can be a great addition to nearly any occasion, from private parties to corporate events. Consider a strolling violinist to add some ambient music to your formal dinner or wedding proposal. Or an electric violinist would be fun for a community event, fundraiser, or even a birthday party.

Why Book Violinists

Violin music can add a sophisticated atmosphere to any occasion, from corporate events and dinner parties to cocktail hours and wedding ceremonies. You can choose a more traditional acoustic violinist, or fill your event space with the captivating sound of an electric violin. Many violinists perform in a variety of configurations so you can choose what works best for your event. You can hire a solo violinist, a classical duo, or a string ensemble with viola or cello music added in.

When booking a violinist, be sure to browse profiles to see photos, watch videos, or listen to audio samples. This will help you learn more about their setlist and violin music style. Then read reviews from past clients to make sure they will be a good fit for you and your event. Once you find a violinist you want to hire, get the details in writing with a contract or booking agreement. When you book through GigSalad, your payments are made securely through the site and are protected by our Worry-Free Guarantee!
