    Outstanding Musician and Professional

    I have had the opportunity to work with Rachel Alexander several times over the past few years. Not only is Rachel an incredible violinist, but on top of that she is consistently thorough and always professional. She pays close attention to details throughout the planning process, and values her clients needs above all else. If you are looking for someone to provide elegant and beautiful music for your event, who is also a pleasure to work with, look no further than Rachel!

    Our Beautiful Music Provided by Rachel Alexander

    We wanted our wedding to have a classic and elegant feel. Hiring Rachel Alexander, to provide us with her gorgeous violin playing, was one of our best decisions. It definitely added to the ambience of our day. Rachel Alexander’s playing is simply beautiful, she’s a true professional. I highly recommend her for your wedding or whatever event you might be planning.


My performance attire is concert black; however, I do try to match the level of formality of the event.
I provide a free event consultation where we discuss the music for your event. If there is a song that you would like me to perform that I don't currently have in my repertoire, I will be happy to learn something new.
Of course! I absolutely love performing for weddings and would be happy to provide the music for your ceremony and/or cocktail hour.
I always arrive no less than 1 hour before an event! I like to be able to unpack and set up with lots of time to spare. I also like to the opportunity to quietly warm up and introduce myself to the people around me.
I am a classically trained violinist, so my music is mostly classical. I am happy to play music from other genres as well. My favorite composers are Bach, Beethoven, Debussy, Barber, Sibelius and Tchaikovsky. I enjoy music by Sara Barielles, Ed Sheeran, Ingrid Michaelson, The Civil Wars, Joseph and more. Broadway musicals are also super fun!
Of course! During our pre-event consultation, we will discuss music selections. If you have a request, please let me know. I will be happy to learn a new piece or song.
What makes me different from other musicians is that I truly enjoy working with couples to make sure that their big day is extra special. It is truly magical when the right song is chosen that truly reflects the couple so perfectly. Music can be so powerful and when played correctly and with lots of love, it can truly make any moment extra special.
