About

Antoinette is a NYC based violinist and studio owner. She has been playing classical and pop violin for 36 years and has been playing weddings since 2015. She play in the Manhattan area as well as Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, Long Island and New Jersey and Connecticut.

Her experiences include session recordings since 2001, live bands since 1998, local orchestras since 2001. Her most frequent hirings are for solo violin marriage proposals, wedding ceremonies (from prelude to recession). She also performs string arrangmenets for cocktail hours, church performances, fundraiser events, documentaries and music videos.

She owns NYC Violin Studio, a fine arts establishment which teaches violin to students of all ages, but mostly adults. Through the studio she has gained many connections to other musicians who she can call upon for accompaniment, or, who she can rely on for gigs when she is unavailable.

Please see my "set list" page to get an idea of what songs are readily available. I also take special requests; these are available in packages.

Incredible Players and So Easy to Work With!

We hired a full string quartet for the welcoming and ceremony. Antoinette worked with us to figure out the perfect song selections, and made sure the quartet had everything it needed to be amazing! They showed up right on time, set up, and played the most beautiful string arrangements. And, at all times, Antoinette was incredibly responsive to to texts and emails as we tweaked details in the lead up to the day! I could not recommend them more! They were awesome!

You're in good hands

Antoinette played us down the aisle, one of the biggest moments in our lives, and I'm so thankful we had her for it. She transposed the songs that had meaning for us into violin, presented herself professionally, and played well enough to impress our guests without stealing focus. Antoinette was responsive and very easy to work with. 10/10, would hire her again for my next wedding, if things don't work out.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
