About

Violin Services - Wedding Ceremony, Cocktail Hour, Rehearsal, Reception background music, Corporate Events, & Non-profit Events! For more information, please see my website www.sonnleitviolin.com.

I play solo acoustic and electric violin. I also like to play violin, either acoustinc or electric, with a backing tracks - it adds that special something to a performance or event.

I’m a classically trained violinist, and I love playing Tchaikovsky, Sibelius, and other classic composers. Since graduating with a BM in music performance at the University of Iowa, I’ve expanded my repertoire to include songs by amazing artists like Dan +Shay, the Beatles, Leonard Cohen (Hallelujah), and numerous others. Check out my repertoire!

Beautiful violin music perfect for ceremony and cocktail hour

We received so many compliments about the violinist! Theresa was wonderful to work with and did a beautiful job at the ceremony and cocktail hour. She responded very quickly to emails and was flexible with adding the rehearsal. She was also very helpful when deciding on songs for the welcome music, prelude, etc. I can't recommend highly enough!

Mesmerizing

Theresa was great! Our guests loved her and she made having live music easy. She worked with us and delivered a unique and impactful song list that was magical. Her set-up took up so little room, but her performance transformed the space. We could not have chosen better for our reception. She helped realize our wedding vision. Affordable and a treat to work with. I would recommend her to anyone.

We had a wonderful experience with Theresa Sonnleit playing violin for my son's wedding ceremony. She was so helpful and offered many excellent suggestions. Theresa was easy to work with, arrived on time and did everything she promised. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful violin music to be played for any event and we would definitely hire her again.

Theresa responded quickly and was professional and on time. She played beautifully. We had a very small budget but she was worth it for sure. Her music was the perfect backdrop to our special day.
