Solo Violin

Cornwall Violinist Sue Aston - Classical Strings

The solo violin option is ideal for occasions such as wedding proposals and ceremonies, surprise birthday celebrations and anniversaries.

The gentle melodic sounds of the violin also lends itself well to small intimate gatherings of people, especially if the venue is a small room, entrance hall, small church or conservatory.

 

Due to the versatile nature of the instrument, the violin can easily play a selection of different styles if you so wish. The violin performance is unaccompanied, I prefer to enjoy the natural sound of the violin and make the most of the acoustics of the room, rather than play with a backing track. This way I can easily be in control of the performance – playing softer if necessary and drawing the music to a close during the ceremony, for example. It also means that I can quickly adapt and play anything to suit the mood and atmosphere of the occasion without being hindered by operating any extra equipment. With the rise of Eco Weddings, I do not need to use electricity!

 

In addition to the traditional classical favourites, such as ‘Meditation from Thais’ by Massenet,  Elgar’s ‘Salut d’Amour’ and Vaughan Williams ‘Lark Ascending’, the solo violin can also incorporate popular jazz themes, Spanish and Gypsy melodies, music from films, love songs and the popular sounds of Cornish, Irish and Scottish folk tunes.

Theme from 'Far From The Madding Crowd' arranged and performed by Sue Aston from Classical Strings in Cornwall. Filmed at St Just in Roseland Cornwall. Here's a clip of me warming up to get ready to play at a wedding blessing at St Just in Roseland church. I was very honoured that the couple and their lovely daughter arrived along with the guests to sit and hear me play before the ceremony started! They even had a little dance, which was so special!

Personal Wedding Music - Composed especially For You Here is an example of a Celtic melody I composed using the letters from someone's name When you are ensuring that everything from the dress, the cake, the flowers, stationery and look of your wedding is going to represent your unique personality, why would you want to use the same music as somebody else? I can compose a unique piece of music for your wedding or event, and dedicate it to you! Composed Just For You – The ultimate wedding gift. I take the names or initials of the bride and goom and write this into a unique piece of music. The music is then recorded (or the sheet music produced), so it can be performed anywhere in the world. How it works: I talk to you via video link and ask about your favourite songs or movies to get an idea of the kind of music you would like me to compose for you. I then also take your names or initials and write this into the actual music, also helping to create a piece of music unique to you. Perhaps you have written a poem or a song yourself? I can set the poem to music or add an instrumental arrangement to your song. The average length of the composition is 2.5 minutes The music can be professionally recorded and I can arrange the sheet music so that any musicians (piano/strings/voice) can perform it live at the wedding or event in any part of the world. A professional recording can also made by us to be played at the event if we are not performing it ourselves, or the recording could be a gift for an anniversary or christening present etc. As a professional composer, my music has already been used at weddings and funerals in the UK, USA, Europe, Canada, and Japan. I also regularly compose music for my patrons on www.patreon.com and have also written music in the memory of a loved one. Composed Just For You – Deluxe Version Released Just For You! – Taking Your Love Worldwide This takes the ‘Composed Just For You’ service to a whole new level. We record the music and arrange to release your music / song as an exclusive single on Spotify / Apple iTunes and dedicate the track to you and your love. Who knows you might be a global hit and be included on playlists around the world! https://www.classicalstrings.co.uk/bespoke-wedding-music-composed-just-for-you/ Sue Aston Classical Strings Weddings and Events String Quartet - Trio - Duo - Solo Violin
