Violinist Soloise is a firm favourite in our household & village!
Sarah M booked Soloise for their event in Cambridgeshire • December 2023
“An excellent violinist who made our event extra special. We hold a party each Christmas in our house and Soloise’s talent and friendly manner shone through. Lots of lovely comments from our music loving guests!”
Extremely talented musician. Great addition to the day
Jayne K booked Soloise for their event in Cambridgeshire
“Soloise is very talented with a wide ranging repertoire playing something for all ages and styles. She coped well with the awful weather we had on the day and took it all in her stride but I am sure she would have preferred to have played in the sunshine rather than inside the marquee. I would certainly recommend her for any event.”
We would book Soloise again in an instant!
Geoff T booked Soloise for their event in Essex
“Wow! Where can I begin?! Soloise opened our Golf Club New Year’s Eve celebrations. She is totally professional, incredibly talented and a super nice, calm lady too. She played as guests arrived, a set during main course and an up beat light show before the dancing began. So many positive comments from guests. We would book her again in an instant. Absolutely perfect. Thank you Soloise!”
We cannot recommend Soloise enough!
Vicki B booked Soloise for their event in London
“Soloise provided lovely background music for our summer party, last night, which complemented our theme, set in a courtyard connected to Southwark Cathedral. She arrived in plenty of time to set up, looked beautiful in a very nice blue dress, was very pleasant to deal with and was very flexible in terms of her playlist. We cannot recommend Soloise enough!”
Fabulous! The music suited the party perfectly
Emma V booked Soloise for their event in Dorset
“Hi Soloise was great at out party, she started off with great well known tunes at a level that was background music, then as guests turned up she revved it up to a faster level, her choice of music was fantastic and suited our party excellently, I would definitely use her again. Thank you for adding a very special touch to the party.”
