Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

A place in the complete shadow if planned outside


What information do you require about a venue?

We need to know information about the possibility to load equipment close to the setting place of our instruments


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

Yes, we’re completely self contained. As a classical oriented musician I use to play unplugged with an optional ampli for the voice if required according to the peculiarities if the event


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, I have a small ampli for a "music corner", or I could provide a full DJ service beside the ceremony/cocktail hour/ event service

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

One of the most important events I've been a part was the Salone dei Cinquecento in Florence Palazzo Vecchio. It was a historical reenactment of a Medici family celebration featuring period costumes, live music, and period dance, where I performed as the lead vocalist and played harp and viola da gamba.
I regulary perform in Florence Palazzo della Signoria for weddings in the Sala Rossa and in many other palaces in Florence.


What's your favourite type of event?

I love playing for weddings and anniversaries because it’s a privilege to be part of such a special day in people's lives


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I started singing and performing at weddings at a young age as a child prodigy, and I haven't stopped since


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

I’m influenced more by artists' lives than by their actual work. For instance, Santana’s life story had a huge impact on me, even though I don't play his music

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We normally arrive 1 hour before the performance to set up. I normally perform for the ceremony and for the cocktail hour. We’re happy to play a bit longer or shorter but we’ve found that these set times suit us and our audiences best


Are you happy to perform outside?

We’re happy to play outside but we ask for shade


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

We can learn specific songs before the event. The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

They are pointing out the emotional music and the professionality in recommending songs and musical moments inside the ceremony
