Beautiful Solo Cello!

Maddie played for our wedding in a park in Boston and did a wonderful job. She was helpful and responsive ahead of the event and played beautifully. It added so much to our ceremony.

Incredible!

We hired Maddie to play the cello for our daughter’s wedding ceremony in an outdoor garden setting. From the get go, Maddie was so professional, communicative and flexible, for which I would have hired her alone! There was a threat of rain for exactly the hour of the ceremony and Maddie was so flexible and willing to pivot at a moment’s notice! Thankfully the rain held off and everything was perfect! Now as far as her performance? Stellar!! Our new son in law is also a cellist and Maddie was a surprise for him. He was also so impressed! Maddie was able to play 4 requested songs that we kind of sprung on her last minute and she played them all beautifully! My only regret is that I did not ask her to play for the whole event. If you are looking for a talented, professional, and sincerely one of the sweetest young women I have ever met, Maddie is your girl. I would recommend her 100% without reservation! Thank you Maddie for making our daughter’s day that much special!

Beautiful, touching cello music; very responsive, flexible!

We could not recommend Maddie's solo cellist services enough! I have always loved the deep, romantic sound of the cello, and I knew I wanted that for our wedding ceremony. Maddie is very talented, and our guests were truly moved by her music!! My dad even specifically told me the music made him cry. The cherry on top is Maddie's personality - she is so kind, flexible, professional, and prompt. She sent me some videos of her playing the songs for procession/recession, and was willing to made adjustments based on my feedback. She arrived early to our event and was gracious and poised the whole time! Thank you so much for helping make our weekend magical!!
