About Lakeside Strings

Lakeside Strings

Cellist

Formerly known as the Adirondack Cellist, I have been playing Weddings and Special Events across New York and Vermont since 2009. I can help you build the perfect ensemble for your venue and style of event, then select just the right music to add that special touch to enhance your already special day!

I have 10+ years of professional experience performing live music for Weddings and other Special Events as a Solo Cellist, a Violin-Cello Duo, a Trio or a full String Quartet. I only work with other professionals who are as committed to their musical craft as I am. We are there to set the mood and add a memorable touch to your event, and as such we can play all the major classical wedding hits, as well as pop songs, jazzy standards, show or music tunes, whatever you want!

    I had a wonderful experience working with Brian from Lakeside Strings. He contacted me to play piano with him for a wedding. Brian proved himself to be one of most professional and talented musicians I have ever worked with. He was well organized and communicated requirements with the most positive attitude every step of the way. I highly recommend him.

    Brian was a pleasure to work with on our ceremony music! Not only is he a true talented professional, he made the process of planning our ceremony music so easy and made great suggestions. We wanted a cello duo with a piano and he made it happen with Chris Ott, who was also great! He was responsive to all my questions and I was so excited he would do a song not on his list, Halo by Beyonce, for my entrance. When I was preparing to walk down the aisle, hearing the beautiful music outside by the lake at the Aurora Inn, felt magical. Especially when my song came on, the music set the tone and made the atmosphere so dreamy and romantic, just what I wanted! If you are considering added musicians to your wedding, you won't regret it, especially with Brian! My only regret is not hiring him for the cocktail hour too. Thank you Brian!!
