What to expect
Support end-to-end with your musical aesthetic, I’ll make sure you are confident and comfortable from our very first conversation until the last guest reluctantly boogies on home.
The warmth of my violin will draw everyone from that awkward lobby coat drop right inside to your main event. A nostalgic memory here, a joyful laugh of recognition there, the music will put your guests at ease.
As the vibe of your evening develops, so will the musical selections. Whether it’s a peaceful welcome, a conversational dinner, or a celebratory bash, the music will create the space for all the feels exactly as you envisioned them.
About
Kisava offers quality and integrity that you deserve for an honest price.
It may not be the cheapest option on GigSalad, but…who wants fast food prices when trying to have a Michelin experience?
Kisava is run by violinist Kit Satoh. She has multiple degrees in music and has been working at events for over 20 years. She even ran a group for 8 years that experimented with how to make classical music concerts mainstream (won awards, and got international acclaim for it!).
Kit loves performing music, classical or popular, that makes people smile and move. On top of that, her experience planning events makes her a vendor that you AND your other vendors love.
Additional booking notes
I can be acoustic, amplified acoustic, or electric.
If amplified or using backing tracks, I'll need power!
