Overview

I am a violist who LOVES to entertain. I like to play anything from recent pop tunes, disney songs, or oldies like Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head, jazz standards like Girl from Ipanema and In the Mood. I also play tunes from the Beatles, and if you're in a classical mood, I love Bach Suites 1, 2, and 3. If you specifically request it, I'll learn and play it! Thanks and glad to be a part of the salad! :D

Rebecca was a gem! Our group absolutely loved her.

Rebecca was the absolute sweetest, even when the venue she played at wasn't the most accommodating. Our group loved listening to her play the viola and it was the perfect background music for our reception and dinner. She played from 6-9pm and it was so soothing to listen to. I'd definitely recommend her and would gladly hire her again.

Cassie, thank you so very much for your gracious review and I am filled with gratitude to have had that opportunity to play for your event at Big Grove Tavern. Music is my passion and the material I had ended up being exactly 3 hours! Coming back into town tonight! Thanks again :)

Rebecca made our daughter's wedding just perfect!!!

We decided rather last minute to add on a violin player. I contacted Gigsalad and Rebecca Saul was recommended to us. I contacted her and she responded immediately!! Every time I had a question, she answered me right away which I loved being 2.5 hours away, I wanted to make sure everything went smoothly. She showed up early, was very sweet, played 3 songs for us, all of which were awesome! She did a fantastic job and seriously made our daughter's wedding perfect. I would HIGHLY recommend her. Thank you Rebecca!!!

Aww I just saw this review! Thank you so so much. I am always happy to make someone's special day even more special! In fact I just played at one of my favorite cousins wedding in Pittsburgh with my sister :) professional violinist in the HSO! Sure runs in the family! Well again, your review made my day, thank you. I'm looking forward to a long performance / teaching career. Hope you're doing well and give my best to the bride and groom! 💕
