About

Multi-instrumentalist, composer-arranger, and bandleader;
Chris Robbert can bring something special to your event.

He is one of those rare musicians who not only play at a high
level of skill on more than one instrument, but have a special way with music; bringing a passion and integrity to every performance that is truly memorable.

Chris's music is a polished and well-crafted blend of the classical, jazz, and popular traditions, and it's often hard to tell where one ends and the next begins; it's all rendered with his finely-honed instincts and unique touch.

He can be heard at many of the most prestigious events in the Virgin Islands; whether it be at upscale corporate functions, romantic weddings, or private villas.

Chris is a long-time resident of the Caribbean, and has infused much of the culture into his personal, and musical world-view.
When ensemble performing he can often be seen with an eclectic mix of local musicians and "continental" talent.

He might be found playing at a beach wedding with a steel-pan player one day, performing in a classical trio at an exclusive resort the next, and then be heard leading a jazz quartet at a formal private dinner.

Contrary to the current trend, Chris eschews playing on top of loops and tracks, preferring the freedom and spontaneity of unencumbered solo playing, and the intimate interaction of performing live with other musicians.

If you are looking for something truly distinctive for your event, and want the very finest in professionalism, experience, and resources, you've come to the right place.

Amazing, Lovely, Above and Beyond

We had an amazing experience with Chris Robbert. Thank you so much for learning not one but 2 songs for us in just over a week. You are so talented. It was beautiful. Thank you for making it a simple, lovely, and a smooth process. We were so pleased with our wedding ceremony music that we cannot recommend you enough.
XOXO, Samantha and John Scott.

Chris was booked through our wedding planner, Pallie Gilbert, at the Marriott St. Thomas. He came highly recommended by Pallie & we were not disappointed. Even though I never spoke with him directly or gave him any instruction (I just let him do what he does!), everything he did was perfect. He played violin during the ceremony and did so beautifully. All out guests were very impressed with him. Do book Chris, you will not regret it! Thank you so much, Chris!

Chris performed at 2 of my parties during my wedding weekend. He was very professional, talented and a pleasure to work with - both as a soloist and part of a 3 piece jazz band. He was very accommodating and able to play a wide range of songs. I would highly recommend Chris Robbert for any occasion - he was great!

He did an absolutely fabulous job of playing beautiful music during our ceremony! For never meeting him and hearing what it would sound like (since we had a destination wedding in St. Thomas), I relied on my wedding planner's advice and it turned out spectacular! Walking down the aisle to the beautiful violin being played was breathtaking!

Thank you so much!

I got married in St. Thomas at the Ritz-Carlton and for the processional for family, the bridal party, and the bride, I had to have three specific songs from the "Twilight" soundtrack. Chris Robbert learned them all and brought accompaniment on guitar to achieve the sound I desired. My ceremony music was absolutely heavenly. We also hired them to play during the cocktail hour, and we are so glad we did! Having live music made such a difference. Again, it was HEAVENLY!

Chris played violin for our beach ceremony. He responded quickly to our e-mails and listened to our ceremony song requests. He played beautifully and all of our guests thought the violin music was a wonderful addition to our ceremony.

Thank you, Chris!

Chris Robbert (violinist) and Jesus (harpist) performed beautifully at my daughter's sunset wedding ceremony on Lindquist Beach in St. Thomas. They performed classic wedding selections but were able to accommodate requests for classical interpretations of contemporary music as well. The wonderful music in this beautiful beach setting made for a very memorable day.

Chris was a true professional from the beginning of the process. He communicated with us and was very responsive to our requests. Not to mention, the guy is a flat out talent. He played as my bride came down the aisle and there wasn't a dry eye in the place. He could have played for our guests all night and we wouldn't have even needed a DJ. He was that good. Will play guitar and violin.
