Solo Musician For Hire in Crystal Lake, IL

I think the following review from Tony G. says it all: "Vicki was exceptional and provided just the right touch to our intimate wedding ceremony. From the first communication here on Thumbtack to selecting the musical pieces to her participation in our ceremony, Vicki knew just what was needed making her a joy to work with. I highly recommend her services to you!" I fell in love with the sound of the violin when I was 4 yrs old, and am so blessed to be in a profession that I love; the harmony that results from working with other musicians, and creating the atmosphere that a client desires is beyond satisfying!
