About Francesca J - Violinist

Francesca J - Violinist

I am a professional violinist with over 25 years of experience performing for weddings, proposals ,cocktail hours, corporate functions, parties , proposals, solo at church services and many more occasions. I can play solo violin with background accompaniment, violin/cello duet, a string trio or a string quartet, depending on what suits you. Violin playing is my passion! Music is how I make my living. I am not someone who has a career outside of music and “dabbles” in music on the side, for extra money. I hold both a BA, and an MA in music and love to enhance your wedding and other events with beautiful, live violin playing.

I can play covers, pop music and other requests. I also perform professionally with The Venice Symphony, The Anna Maria Orchestra and for shows, church services and many other types of events. I am also the co-founder of The Hampton Chamber Orchestra, From New York. My goal is to add an elegant touch to your wedding or event, with a contemporary flair, modern music , covers and various types on the violin, with background music. Thank you for reading my profile! Have a blessed day and feel free to contact me with any inquiries.

    Beach Wedding

    Francesca J was a standout choice for our wedding day. From our first conversation through the final note, she stayed in touch and made sure we knew exactly what to expect. She showed up on time and played with such grace that our guests couldn't stop talking about it. The violin added an elegance to our ceremony that we couldn't have gotten any other way. Francesca's professionalism and genuine care for making our day special made all the difference. We'd hire her again in a heartbeat.

    Francesca performed at the love of my life’s memorial. She helped me through every step of the process. provided me with the very large list of choices in between Francesca and my daughter. Oh my God. It wasn’t a dry eye in the house. It was so beautiful. Of course I will remember it for the rest of my life.
