With its rich resonant sound and soaring melodies, the ‘cello is a magnificent and emotionally moving solo instrument which will set the tone for your event with its deep sonority. Léonie is highly experienced in playing for weddings, civil ceremonies, memorial services, funerals and intimate events.

Léonie has also played as a soloist for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth at Buckingham Palace, recorded at Abbey Road and played with artists including Jason Donovan, Shirley Bassey and Jeff Beck.
YoYo Ma as a cellist influences me greatly, his Silk Road, Bluegrass and cross over projects are inspirational!
I also love playing as a soloist with Sinfonic Ibiza - I love pop music's energy
I have performed at a wide variety of events including the more intimate venue of the clients home (including the London home of the Moroccan Ambassador) and as guest artist at the Qatar International Boat Show.
Other recent engagements include for: English Heritage, The City of London, Birkbeck University, Royal Commonwealth Society, British High Commission Honiara, The Worshipful Company of Founders & LW Theatres amongst many others.
All events are wonderful, celebrations of love and life especially
I arrive 30 minutes before performance time to set up. I play 45 minute sets with a 10 minute break in between, unless the client requires something different in which case, by agreement. Very happy to work around speeches, dinner serving times and service timings.
Under cover and during warm months yes
I am happy to share my existing repertoire lists - clients are welcome to pick a set list from my repertoire or let me choose the music for them.
Clients can make special off list requests, but that may incur additional cost depending on how easy it is to source the music.
