Photo of Violinist events Como Violinist events Como "We couldn’t have chosen a better duo for our wedding. The violin and piano accompanied every moment with emotion and style, enchanting our guests. Their punctuality, precision, and musical interpretation exceeded all expectations. An extraordinary experience!" Based in Como, Lombardy 19th November 2025 Sam - Wedding Photo of violinist/duojig violin cello violinist/duojig violin cello "As the CB Wedding Planner team, we had the pleasure of working with the talented violinist Barbara. The musical accompaniment was beautiful and enriched the wedding in a very special way. The collaboration proceeded professionally, reliably and smoothly from start to finish. Both we and the guests were delighted with the quality of her performance and her warm manner. We can wholeheartedly recommend Barbara and look forward to future collaborations. Thank you very much for the wonderful musical accompaniment to this special day! ✨" Translated from German Based in Lugano, Canton Ticino, Switzerland (15 miles from Como) 22nd June 2026 CB Wedding Planner - Hochzeitsplanung Photo of Bleus Rêves cello piano Duo Bleus Rêves cello piano Duo "Gaia and Amina are two truly exceptional people! Kind, polite, and respectful, they arrive quietly, create deeply moving emotions and fill the atmosphere with wonderful energy, then leave just as quietly as they came. I contacted them for my wife's birthday, and I'm already thinking of booking them again for next year. I highly recommend them! ☺️" Based in Milan, Lombardy (24 miles from Como) 1st October 2026 Amedeo B. - House concert for a birthday Photo of Sinfonietta String Quartet Sinfonietta String Quartet "Booking Stefano and his team was one of our favourite choices of our wedding. They were absolutely phenomenal and exquisite. From the first conversation to the performances on our day, we were blown away with the level of attention to detail, skill, and passion shown by the team. We requested a list of custom songs for our day (most of which were non traditional, akin to a Bridgerton soundtrack per se) and the team performed each of them perfectly throughout the stages of our ceremony and dinner. Just gorgeous. We had guests exclaiming to us how amazing they were. If you’re seeking a high quality, super friendly, reliable, and exceptionally talented string quartet for your event, you have come to the right listing. Thank you so much to you Stefano and team, you made our special day so wonderful. Best wishes, Hayley and Liam" Based in Milan, Lombardy (24 miles from Como) 30th June 2026 Hayley and Liam Davies - Destination Wedding Photo of The Perfect Duo: Piano & Cello The Perfect Duo: Piano & Cello "We hired this piano and cello duo for an important private event, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Our goal was to create an elegant and memorable evening for our guests, and we knew that live music would play a crucial role. Choosing this duo turned out to be the perfect decision. From the planning stage, they demonstrated a high level of professionalism and attention to detail. They asked thoughtful questions about the event, the venue, and the type of guests attending. Based on this, they proposed a musical direction that felt perfectly aligned with what we had in mind. Their experience was evident not only in their musical knowledge but also in their understanding of how music interacts with the overall flow of an event. On the day itself, everything was handled seamlessly. They arrived well in advance, set up quietly, and were ready to perform without requiring any supervision. This level of autonomy was extremely valuable, especially in an event where many different elements needed to be coordinated. Once the performance began, the impact was immediate. The combination of piano and cello created a refined and immersive atmosphere that elevated the entire space. It felt sophisticated but also warm and inviting. The music never dominated the room, but it was always present in a way that enhanced the experience. One of the most impressive aspects was their ability to adapt in real time. As the energy of the event shifted—from a more formal beginning to a more relaxed and social atmosphere—the music evolved accordingly. This flexibility made everything feel natural and fluid. Guests were genuinely impressed. Several people commented on how much they appreciated the live music, noting that it made the evening feel more exclusive and thoughtfully curated. If you are looking for a piano and cello duo for a wedding or event, this is an outstanding choice. Their combination of talent, professionalism, and sensitivity makes a real difference." Based in Milan, Lombardy (24 miles from Como) 24th March 2026 Andrew Whitaker Photo of Alisa cello Alisa cello "I couldn’t recommend Alisa enough. Her communication beforehand was fantastic. She even learnt 2 songs for the ceremony she previously hadn’t played before and they sounded AMAZING. Alisa’s entire performance was magical. She was incredible and I would recommend to anyone" Based in Bergamo, Lombardy (29 miles from Como) 31st May 2026 Adi Kurdyla - Elopement

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring cellists is €500, with prices from €200 to €1,100+. Rates depend on the cellist's experience, performance duration and the style of music required. A solo cello performance can provide elegant background music for ceremonies, dinners and receptions.

Most players will take a small number of requests, and a piece written for another instrument can usually be arranged for solo cello. Popular songs work well on the instrument, though a dense arrangement may lose detail when reduced to a single line. Sending the list several weeks ahead leaves time to source or write the arrangement.

Ceremony bookings usually split into arrival music, the processional, something during the signing and the recessional, with the couple choosing at least the processional. Drinks receptions are more relaxed and the choice is often left to the player. Fixing the set points and leaving the rest open is the usual arrangement, and it keeps the planning short.

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.

Hiring cellists is popular for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate events, private dinners and classical concerts. The cello's rich, warm tone creates an elegant atmosphere and works well as both solo background music and as part of a string ensemble.

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.

Most players list a travel radius on their profile and will go beyond it for a fee covering time and transport. A cello takes up a seat or a boot, so travel is usually by car rather than public transport, which shapes how far is practical. Raising distance early is worth doing, as it affects both the fee and the arrival time the player can commit to.
