I'm offering various different styles of music which include professional violin playing (21 years of study of the violin) and pop singing (studying classical singing) and combination of both.
Mostly I have been hired to play classical music, light classical music, popular jazz, singing 'Norah Jones style' and deep house music (Ibiza events).
I work with my own mixing consule and I also have my own amplification so I can perform on my own with the background music or in a setting (duo, trio, quartet,...)
I cover many weddings and business events as well and can perform up to 3 hours.

Electricity and 3x3 space for my act.
I need to know any directions that will help me find the venue and find the right place to load in my equipment. I’d also need to be informed if there’s a sound limiter in the venue.
Yes, I'm completely self contained. I bring my own PA system to all of my gigs as well as a simple lighting rig.
Yes, I'm happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between my sets. I'm happy to choose the music myself or let the client choose the music.
Performing with André Rieu.
The best venue I ever performed was Ziggo Dome.
I love playing at all sorts of gatherings, but events where I'm presented as a special act and significantly contribute by elevating it with my performance are my favorite.
I began performing at a young age, around 8 years old, with my first gigs being at family birthdays. Since then, I have had the opportunity to perform on some of Europe’s largest stages.
I have been most influenced by Vanessa Mae, Pinchas Zuckerman, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd, Abba...
I typically arrive at the venue 30 to 60 minutes prior to the event to ensure a seamless setup. I offer a variety of set lengths to accommodate different needs, each including a brief 5-10 minute interlude. The set options include: a single 15-minute set (minimum), a single 45-minute or 60-minute set, two 45-minute sets, or a single 90-minute set. Based on my experience, these configurations have proven to be highly effective for both the audience and myself, ensuring an engaging and enjoyable experience for all.
I'm happy to play outside, but I ask for a shade and enough space around me (3x3m if possible), to be able to perform seamlessly.
In collaboration with my clients, I create customized playlists that cater to their unique preferences. This includes incorporating songs outside of my standard repertoire to ensure that the musical selection perfectly aligns with their vision and taste.
I have been complimened by previous clients for being very professional, with performances that are mesmerizing, magical, and beautiful.
So far, I have maintained a perfect track record, with no client expressing dissatisfaction with my work.
