About Jeff Lu Music

Jeff Lu Music

Owner

Hey, my name is Jeff! I'm a multi-instrumental musician who's traveled the world performing in places like Costa Rica's National Theater and Taiwan's Presidential Office. Back at home in Los Angeles, I've played in everything from short films and Broadway musicals to string quartets and orchestras, including an associate principal position with the UCLA Symphony.

Although I am on a lifelong quest to learn any instrument I can get my hands on, I specialize in the viola, the way-cooler middle sibling of the violin and the cello. There aren't a lot of us out there, especially in the wedding industry, so booking a violist is a great way to make your big day even more special ;)

    It’s Perfect’

    Working with Jeff has been an incredible experience from start to finish. I reached out to commission a custom processional song for my wedding, and he truly brought my vision to life. He took the time to listen to exactly what I wanted, offered thoughtful suggestions that made the piece even better, and executed everything beautifully. His communication, creativity, and attention to detail made the entire process easy and enjoyable. I genuinely can’t wait to walk down the aisle to a song that feels so personal and meaningful. I highly recommend Jeff to anyone looking for a talented musician who cares deeply about creating something special.

    Wedding - Ceremony Musician (viola)

    Working with Jeff Lu Music was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our first conversation through the big day, everything felt organized and seamless. Jeff went above and beyond during our ceremony—he learned a song that wasn't in his usual rotation because it was so important to us. He also provided recordings before our rehearsal so we could hear exactly how it would sound. The live music he played was flawless and made our ceremony feel intimate and personal. We can't recommend Jeff Lu Music enough.

    Thanks for the kind words, Alivia! It was a gorgeous ceremony and I am honored to have been a part of it.

    Excellent Performance

    Jeff was wonderful and we highly recommend him! He’s an amazing violist. My wife and I just got married very recently in May and Jeff played during our ceremony; he played beautifully. We even asked him to learn a new song for us that’s totally foreign to him since it’s not English. He nailed it! He’s also very responsive to text and easy to communicate with. Thank you Jeff.

    Beautiful From Start to Finish

    We hired Jeff Lu to play violin at our daughter's quinceañera and couldn't have been happier with our choice. Even though it was his first quinceañera, Jeff brought such professionalism and elegance to the event that you would never have known it. He was willing to rehearse with an opera singer the same day, which showed how dedicated he was to making our celebration special. Jeff stayed responsive throughout our planning process and handled all our last-minute requests with a great attitude. He looked sharp, played beautifully, and connected with our guests in a way that made the whole day feel memorable. We're so grateful to Jeff for bringing such grace and care to our daughter's milestone.

Yes! If you don't see what you're looking for in my repertoire, I would be happy to learn any and all songs you'd like. A small additional fee may apply.
Yes! I've got general liability insurance up to $1M and am happy to provide a copy upon request.
Growing up learning 6 different instruments under a variety of settings has positioned me well to tailor my performance to any circumstance. In addition, my day job as a web designer and my experience event planning for Los Angeles's creative community mean that I've got the attention to detail and coordination skills necessary to pull off a vision as singular as yours.
Great question! Imagine if the violin and the cello had a (way cooler) middle sibling. Due to the viola's unique construction, it resonates differently from other string instruments, resulting in a sound that carries the elegance of a violin and the warmth of a cello, all in one package. Compared to many other instruments, there aren't a lot of us viola players out there, so booking one is a great way to make your wedding or event stand out! ;)
Generally, cocktail attire. I take requests, though!
Yes, with your permission!
Both!
I am a one-man show, but I am open to learning and performing any kind of music.
Bridgerton for pre-ceremonies, ceremonies, and dances; lounge music for cocktail hours and receptions!
