James was very professional from the moment we started talking to him. He was immediately responsive with everything that we discussed along the way. Everything was perfect from his professionalism to the beautiful music that made our daughter’s wedding ceremony so special! I look forward to the next event that we can have him play at. He is a very talented and very nice young man!

James was great, I had a wish to have live music Cello performance in my dad’s burial ceremony, and James did a great job, he surprised me with his selections, his music created such soothing feeling for everyone in the most tense environment. I do recommend him for sure.

James recently performed at my sons wedding. He added an extra special touch to the ceremony. Very talented, professional, and just all around friendly person. Great communication prior to the event which meant so much.

James was excellent for our wedding ceremony. From start to finish he was exceptional. We requested a number of songs and he was able to play them all so beautifully. It really accentuates all of the wonderful emotional moments. He was early, had everything setup nicely and in the right placement, and he was very cordial and professional. I highly recommend James!

We we're getting married the next day I've contacted James and he promptly kept in touch with me, I chose music from our taste and James promptly said yes and played them very well. If you are looking for a Cello player I guarantee James is an amazing musician!

FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?Distance travelled and amount of time performing are the two biggest factors. If there is a large amount of material to learn, rehearsal time may be added as well.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?If the customer is hiring me for an event, I will ask what they want to accomplish with their event. For a recording/composition, I would ask what their vision is and explain what feelings they would like to communicate to the listener. From there I can be more descriptive as to what I need from the customer to finish the project successfully.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?I have been actively playing for wedding events and shows for over 4 years. These ranged from ensembles to play tanngo music, latin music, jazz and classical ensembles.
