Versatile, popular, reliable, and
affordable
performances
of violin & fiddle music for weddings or events in the
Denver, Colorado & Rocky Mountain Front Range areas.

Thank you for your interest in my
violin
performance music services.
Strollingviolinist.com
is a
competitively priced entertainment alternative to DJs in the
Denver and Frontrange area.
Special requests are a specialty. If you need special transcriptions or
arrangements of music, they are included with my
wedding performances at no additional charge. Standard selections to
suit ceremonies from most tradition are also available. And, if you
like, I can choose or suggest music for your event based on my
previous experiences.
Working
alone as a solo
violinist allows me the greatest flexibility to draw upon my varied
background to please a wide range of musical tastes, and to provide the
best customer service possible. Yet, larger groups can be arranged on
special request, subject to the availability of proven players on a
given date.
Experience
I have been playing
for almost 50
years. A large number
of my
engagements are wedding ceremonies. Over time, I have
especially developed effective solutions for the usual problems
associated with outdoor performances.
-
Where
loudness is
needed and volume is the
most important factor, I offer the additional option of using an
electric violin with 60 watt amplifier.
-
The
highly adaptable
strolling violin is well suited for receptions, memorial ceremonies,
private parties, corporate events, birthdays, holiday parties, caroling
or sing alongs, contra dancing, square dances, nursing homes,
hospitals, libraries, and schools.
-
My
Educational
Presentations can be enhanced by including examples and explanations of
history and styles of violin and fiddle music.
Credentials
My education and experiences have included:
-
Private
studies with
master violinists, Dominick Saltarelli, Marcus Lehmann, Sebastian
Campesi, and most recently with Eugene Fodor.
-
In
addition to
orchestra and chamber playing, my performing experiences cover most
popular styles of music and most types of groups, including country,
folk, bluegrass, rock, blues, and jazz standards.
-
Masters
Certificate in Songwriting from Berklee College of Music.
-
Membership
in the
Denver Musicians Association, the Local chapter of the American
Federation of Musicians.
-
Affiliated
with
the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP).
-
My
original music is
published by Licksun-Lyrics.
