About
Hello, my name is Derek and I’ve been playing the cello for 12 years! I’m looking to perform wherever and whenever I can. I love playing solo and I’ve also played across a variety of genres for occasions such as weddings, dinners, etc. If you’d like a pianist as well, I would love to include one! Originally started playing at the age of 13 and have loved it ever since. I’ve also recently started to teach and have a couple years experience under my belt. If you’re looking for the nice and lovely sound of solo cello for your event then look no further!
Additional booking notes
If the event is outdoors, I require that the space set aside for me be in the shade as direct sunlight can be damaging to the instrument
