The Lake District Violinist
This solo violinist is based in the Lake District and loves to play beautiful music for weddings, partnerships, funerals and all kinds of events.
She plays a mix of light classical music, Viennese waltzes (Andre Rieu style!) jazz violin and pop arrangements such as the Beatles and Adele as well as Celtic/Irish fiddle music.
She has her own PA system so she can play indoors or out with a mix of piano, orchestral and jazz band backing tracks.
Although there are no recordings of her playing here, you can listen to her perform with her Cumbria String Quartet

Excellent communication,prompt and reliable-beautiful music by a polite, lovely lady who played at the drinks reception for our wedding. Thank you - you added much value to our day! Highly recommended.
Flt Lt and Mrs Finbow
We were extremely privileged to have such a talented musician play at our wedding. It made for such a special atmosphere with many compliments from our guests. We would highly recommend. Thank you!
Mr and Mrs Reilly
Absolutely brilliant. I wanted a surprise violinist that could play from some old manuscripts that my wife's grandfather arranged in the early 20s in Vienna, this she did with great gusto, my wife was in tears when she realised it was her grandfathers arrangements. A really big thanks from Peter and Margaret, you really made Margaret's 70th birthday celebration perfect.
Peter Gibson
She played beautifully at our wedding. We gave her a list of songs and she played a selection at her house when we met her a few months before the wedding. She then sourced the backing tracks so could play the complete list on our day. She was wonderful to deal with, and her music was a delightful part of the day and something all of our guests commented on. We would have no hesitation in recommending her.
