    Many cellists have a versatile repertoire that extends beyond classical music to include popular songs, film scores, jazz and contemporary arrangements. Some cellists use loop pedals and effects to create a fuller, more modern sound. It is worth checking each performer's profile for their repertoire.

    Most cellists need very little setup - just a chair without arms and enough space to perform comfortably. For larger venues, a microphone or small amplification system may be useful. It is a good idea to confirm any technical needs with the cellist before the event.
