A Beautiful Violin & Trillium Ensembles Cheryl Zylla, violin and manager |
Client Feedback: "Cheryl Zylla is the violin behind "A Beautiful Violin." I hired her plus a cello to provide the ceremony music for my wedding at the Minnesota History Center. I had heard the same combo play at a friends wedding at their cabin in rural Minnesota earlier in the year. She travels the state, but is based in the Twin Cities. They did a wonderful job! They arrive and are playing music 30 minutes prior to the ceremony. You will get a total of 90 minutes of music in the basic package, with the option of adding time for additional cost. We selected the ceremony songs, which included classical selections and the Beatles "Here Comes the Sun" for our recessional. Cheryl is willing to learn any song you request. She was easy to work with, professional, and added a classy touch to our ceremony and transition down to dinner. I would recommend her unconditionally. Value 5 STARS Service 5 STARS Quality 5 STARS" quoted from: TheKnot.com `````````````````````````````````````````````````````` Cheryl was such a pleasure to work with and the music was absolutely beautiful! Thank you for everything! -Sarah S, Chaska, MN Wedding `````````````````````````````````````````````````` Cheryl was exceptional! She is not only a wonderful violinist, she is a wonderful person. Her music was the perfect touch to the wedding and we could not have asked for more. She was professional in every sense of the word. She confirmed the time and schedule and choice of music with us well in advance. She met with the minister and coordinated her performance for the ceremony. She offered assistance beyond her music if it was needed. She was truly an asset to the day and I highly recommend her to anyone. -Linda D, Wedding Ceremony, Minneapolis, MN `````````````````````````````````````````````````` Our experience with Cheryl was exceptional. From the first contact made, Cheryl gave our wedding personal, individual attention, getting to know my husband and I and our personal interests to make our music selection special. She was very flexible, as our ceremony location was moved due to weather, and was prepared for unexpected weather as well. She was very professional, and also used her experience to guide us in making decisions. Finally, she is a beautiful musician and violinist. My husband and I are very happy with the music she played, and guests are still complementing her. -April Z, Wedding Ceremony, Two Harbors, MN `````````````````````````````````````````````````` Our violinist (Cheryl Zylla) was not only professional but played the most beautiful solo music for our wedding and reception. We suggest everyone reading this HURRY UP and book her while she still has openings. She even stayed for dinner and fun at our reception. We had many guests ask me where we found her. Now she is like a friend. We got along so well. We would like everyone to know not only can she play every and any song you throw at her, but plays it with style and class! She was the cherry on top of a wonderful wedding. A+ Thanks Cheryl! All our Love, Maggie and Dan Kersey -Maggie M, Wedding Ceremony in Otsego, MN `````````````````````````````````````````````````` Cheryl Zylla is a true professional and quite talented. She played all of my requests. She was on time and is very adaptable to your needs. You can also hear her on youtube. I would certainly recommend her to a friend. -Lisa H, Wedding Ceremony, Prior Lake, MN `````````````````````````````````````````````````` |
