Crista provided an evening of soothing sounds and education as you played works from little known Black composers. I highly recommend her for any dinner party or formal event. She is punctual and plays what you request.

About
I have been playing the violin since the age of three and have been classically trained for 21 years. I studied with Nicolette Solomon van Wyk at the Suzuki Music Institute of Dallas in my youth and participated in numerous summer music camps. I recently received a Bachelor of Music in Violin Performance from BYU-Idaho. I continue to study under Dr. McLin at Arizona State University to receive a Master of Music in Performance Pedagogy.
I have have incredible opportunities performing with artists such as Cyndi Lauper, William Joseph, The Piano Guys, Josh Groban, David Archuleta, and opening up for Carrie Underwood! I love collaborating with local musicians my area as well, and am happy to coordinate gigs that require a fuller musical sound with more musicians.
Types of gigs I have done:
-weddings, big and small
-fundraiser events for charities
-dinner parties
-fiddler with band in clubs
-birthdays-funerals
Items I can provide on my own:
-music stand
-music light (if in dark atmosphere)
-sheet music, if necessary
-proper dress attire
Items I canNOT provide on my own:
-microphone, or other devices needed for this.

When you close your eyes and imagine a a bride walking down the aisle, what do you hear? Most likely, it's strains of Mendelssohn's "The Wedding March" or Pachelbel's "Canon in D." Classical wedding music provides an elegance unlike any other, and it's no wonder so many brides choose classic wedding processional songs. "The Wedding March" and "Canon in D" are just the tip of the iceberg, however. There are plenty more lovely options, all of which provide a lovely backdrop for the wedding processional. Read on to discover our favorite classical songs for weddings.
