Photo of Professional Singer and Pianist Professional Singer and Pianist "Our wedding day on Sunday, 2 October was one of the best days either of us have ever experienced, and that is due in large part to you. From the moment we first met you, you put us at ease on being able to provide our music for the day. Your timely feedback and input during the planning stages was so useful, then finally you knocked it out the park on our wedding day! Thank you for the splendid way you executed your job and delighted us and our guests. Our family and friends are still complimenting us on the day and your input was a big part of that success, and for that we will be forever grateful. Thank you again for making our special day that little bit extra special. If there is any customer review platform that we can give you a positive review on let us know we would be happy to do so. Many thanks again! Mr and Mrs. Blake" Based in Colchester, England Mr and Mrs Blake - Wedding - All day package Photo of Paula Borrell Paula Borrell "Paula was superb.

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring classical soloists is £250, with prices from £100 to £700+. Pricing depends on the musician's experience, the instrument, performance duration and the style of music. Classical soloists cover a wide range of instruments and repertoire, and performers with advanced training and professional concert experience tend to command higher fees.

The classical soloists on Gig Heaven include performers on violin, cello, flute, harp, piano, guitar, clarinet, oboe and many other instruments. It is worth browsing profiles to find a soloist who plays the specific instrument you are looking for.

Hiring classical soloists is ideal for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate dinners, gallery openings, private parties and formal events. A solo musician provides elegant, refined entertainment that works well as background music or as a featured performance.

Many classical soloists offer arrangements of contemporary songs, film soundtracks and popular hits alongside their classical repertoire. This allows the performance to appeal to a wider audience while retaining the elegance of a live acoustic instrument.

Most classical soloists need very little beyond a chair and adequate space. Harpists may need a specific amount of floor space and access for transporting the instrument. For larger venues, some soloists may use a small amplifier. It is worth confirming any specific requirements with the musician.
