Excellent Violinist

She made the process easy, she had many questions which were organized well. She showed early and I didn't have to worry about her, so I could focus on other details of the wedding.

Incredible!

Anna was extremely professional, and helpful throughout the entire process. She took the time to learn my complicated music request (songs from the Amelie soundtrack) which was above and beyond anything I could have imagined. It took our wedding to the next level and will be one of the most memorable parts for us. We cannot express our gratitude enough. Thank you!

Home Concert for New Years Eve

Anna performed for our New Years Eve Party at our house. The one hour performance was a highlight of the evening. In deciding to have Anna perform I liked how she could play a variety of music -- classics, holiday and fiddle tunes. She was very professional in advance of the party and helped me -- a novice -- decide on the type of song selection which would work based on our friends interests. A very memorable occasion for us. I would definitely hire Anna in the future for musical events.
