Hi, I'm Christine! I'm an experienced freelance cellist with a doctoral degree in music from the University of Memphis. I am based in the Memphis area and frequently play with the Memphis Symphony and Huntsville Symphony. I also serve as the adjunct cello professor at Rhodes College. I love playing for weddings, church gigs, and other events. I'm happy to provide samples of music and suggestions for your event, and am also open to personal requests.

November 12, 2025Christine played background music during a birthday dinner at a Rossville TN venue. Her cello entertainment was the highlight of the event! She performed my 3 requested songs with excellence, as well as other lovely selections. I highly recommend her services.

Music has always been a part of my life, and I have been passionate about performing professionally since high school. The pandemic has reminded me how much I love sharing music with people and what a privilege it is. I mainly play classical music, but am no stranger to pop arrangements. I would love to work with you!
