Violinist for Birthday Party

I had never hired a performer to my house and had no idea how it would work out, Nina helped me with all of my questions and made my wife's Birthday one for the books. Thank you again, Nina, for making the night unforgettable!

Adding instrumental to your wedding is priceless!

Nina was lovely to work with from start to finish... she was our ceremony and cocktail hour violinist with a kind, loving presence at Bella Collina. Guests complimented her abilities plus vast repertoire. We hired her solely based on reviews which can be scary knowing you only have one wedding day. Nina performed primarily from our request list which was impressive. Communication was ideal especially with making last minute changes. Thank you again, Nina!!

Awesome

Nina,
Was excellent. She was prompt, accommodating with our song requests and so friendly. Our family interacted great with her and her playing abilities were outstanding. We would never hesitate in hiring her again or recommending her for an event. Extremely pleased. My wife said that this was her best Valentines gift ever. Thank you Nina!

Spectacular talent - book her now!

We hired Nina for our wedding in January 2018 and found her through GigSalad. She was very easy to communicate with and prompt in responding to my questions. We did everything via online with no in person meetings, which honestly scared me at first, but boy did she deliver. She is an incredible talent that deserves all the bookings in the world. She played requested songs for our ceremony acoustically and a melody of hits on electric violin for our cocktail hour. I could not thank her enough that day and will be recommending her to everyone I know for any type of event that needs beautiful music.

Amazing!

Nina was seriously amazing! I booked her for my wedding incredibly last minute and she was both fun and professional in talking out both my expectations and hers because of the preparation time restraint. We gave her a lot of freedom in her choosing reception music and all of our guests loved her selections--from classical to 60's to 2010's pop, she rocked.

Incredible!

I looked all over the internet for a violinist for our special day. Nina's pricing was beyond fair, her communication was outstanding and I felt totally confident in booking here on Gigmaster before meeting her in person. I was so blown away with her ability to meet my requests and appreciated the care she took in making sure our day was perfect. Nina did an outstanding job setting the vibes for our wedding. Our wedding was a small, 26 person wedding and without her it would have fallen flat! THANK YOU NINA!!!!

Outstanding Wedding & Cocktail Hour Violinist

Nina was amazing! Our original musician cancelled on us the week of our wedding and Nina happened to have an opening for our wedding day. With less than a week to prepare, she was able to play all of our requests fantastically. She was also prompt and always responded quickly to our questions. We would definitely recommend her for your next wedding, cocktail hour, or event!

Amazing!

Nina was so professional. Although she primarily plays classical music she was able to accommodate the modern twist I request for my wedding ceremony. She made our day even that more special. I would definitely recommend her for other events.

About

Originally from Chisinau, Moldova, Nina and her family immigrated to America in 1992 — following the collapse of the former USSR.
At the age of 7, Nina embarked on her violin journey under the tutelage of her grandfather, Petr Solodchenko. Solodchenko, an accomplished violinist, held the prestigious position of concertmaster in multiple orchestras, performing for esteemed dignitaries in different nations overseas.
Nina's musical endeavors have led her to share the stage with acclaimed artists such as OneRepublic, Weird Al Yankovic, Ramin Djawadi, Andrea Bocelli, Michael Bolton, and numerous others. Notably, she has had the privilege of performing under the baton of renowned conductors including John Williams, JoAnn Falletta, and Jun-Ho Pak, among others.
While rooted in classical training, Nina's ambition lies in bridging the gap between diverse music genres, fostering collaboration among performers from various artistic disciplines. She passionately advocates for the presence of the Arts in public schools and embraces street performances as a means of artistic expression.
