The feedback from Isobel's performance was very complimentary at the welcome drinks reception, our guests certainly enjoyed her music before they sat down for lunch.

Many thanks for playing at our daughters wedding on Saturday 28th August.The cello playing proved to be a really successful backdrop to the drinks reception, a delightful interlude as guests arrived at the venue.
Many thanks

I booked Isobel to play the cello at my wedding in December 2009. She played before and at the civil ceremony.
Isobel is a very accomplished cellist and has a wide repertoire. She knew what she was doing and was entirely open to ideas with no fixed mindset of what was ‘the right thing’, yet gave me suggestions where I needed. She didn’t rush me over choices and was happy to play a piece again and again. She even suggested that I have a little practice with the ‘walk’ to ensure appropriate timing.
Isobel is extremely professional and from day one she inspired confidence. She always kept in communication before the day and returned my calls if I left a message. She paid attention to detail and asked about the dress code. She fitted in well with the hotel staff and guests. Her appearance is good and she was at the venue in plenty of time.
She is intelligent and can play to fill the ‘awkward spaces’ left at times, e.g while waiting for the bride and during the signing. She didn’t just play one piece and then sit in silence.
I was initially undecided about booking a cellist and am so pleased that I did. It totally raised the tone of the wedding and was utterly charming. My whole experience with Isobel was enjoyable and fun from being to ended.
I would not hesitate in recommending Isobel.
