Amazing experience!

Truly had such an amazing experience with Stellare! They played at a corporate event for us and brought the energy and vibes I wanted my team to feel.

Beautiful Talent

Rachel Aiken, owner and director of Stellare Strings, accommodated a request a few days prior for a funeral mass for my mom in Pittsburgh. You can just look at her and know she enjoys what she does. Bringing her talent to the church just made the music complete and the polish for a beautiful mass. Rachel was kind, detailed, and knew exactly how to coordinate with the organist. We had her play solo as folks entered the church. I looked at Stellare Strings based on reviews and I hope this carries on for Rachel and her musicians. They are customer service focused and their delivery even more impressive. Thank YOU Rachel.

Beautiful wedding music

They provided beautiful wedding entertainment. Rachel worked with us to review our requests for ceremony and cocktail hour. Many of our guests commented that it was very nice music to listen to during cocktail hour rather than loud music from a DJ.

Perfect for my event!

Rachel contacted me soon after I had booked to get details for what type of music I had in mind. Closer to the event, I contacted her with 3 specific songs. She was able to do those for me too. I would definitely recommend Stellare Strings!
