About Ilana: Acoustic/Electric Violin & Ensembles
Looking for high-energy, up-to-the-minute music for a spirited party? Or an elegant performer with over twenty years of experience performing at weddings and functions from San Francisco City Hall to Google HQ and with notable artists from Andrea Bocelli to ODESZA, the Eagles and Michael Buble to Josh Groban? A highly skilled musician who has been playing since the age of two, conservatory educated, who appears with almost every orchestra and many chamber ensembles throughout the Bay Area and far beyond? As one of the area's leading violinists, whether at a lavish wedding or a beachfront proposal, I can perform for you on acoustic or electric violin as soloist, with cello, electric guitar, or other instruments. My repertoire spans everything from classical to current R&B, pop, rock, and blues. Sometimes, I appear backed by iPad tracks or a DJ if that's the aesthetic you're looking for, usually a higher energy 'full band' feel. I enjoy the rapport with audiences large and small and I hope to meet and connect with you.
Reviews
Ilana was so easy to work with. She is not only SO talented, but also made booking, setlist/song list choices based on her experience, coordination with the DJ and the venue so stress fee. We got SO many compliments from family and friends saying it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to and I know our wedding would not have been nearly as elegant or romantic without her beautiful violin playing🎻 Thank you so much!!!
We had the pleasure of having Ilana perform at our son’s first birthday party, and she was absolutely fantastic! Her music was lovely—elegant, soothing, and added such a special touch to the whole celebration. She created a beautiful atmosphere that both the adults and little ones enjoyed. Professional, friendly, and incredibly talented, she truly helped make the day memorable. Highly recommended!
Ilana did an awesome job for my daughter’s big day. Everyone loved her music
I had the pleasure of hiring Ilana for my recent birthday party, and she was absolutely fantastic! Her talent and professionalism truly stood out, and she added an elegant and enchanting touch to the evening. The ambiance of the event was elevated thanks to her beautiful performance, which perfectly complemented the mood and setting. My guests were so impressed, and her music was one of the highlights of the night. If you’re looking for a skilled and professional musician to bring a special charm to your event, I highly recommend Ilana. She exceeded all expectations and made the night unforgettable.
She was outstanding , wide range of music . Made our event
Ilana is awesome to work with and she did such a great job at our church wedding ceremony! I would definitely recommend her :)
I hired Ilana and her son (on guitar) for my 40th birthday celebration - an outdoor backyard party. She was AWESOME - truly made my party an unforgettable experience. She came with plenty of time ahead of schedule so that they could setup and be ready to go, and provided a mix of live music (with backing tracks) as well as a playlist during her breaks (so we never had awkward silence). The volume was perfect for background music, and she provided us with a mic for speeches etc. Her songlist was phenomenal - everything from Dua Lipa to Michael Jackson to Bollywood songs - wow! My guests were in awe :) Thank you so much Ilana!
Ilana is an amazing person and excellent violinist. She drove all the way down south on a busy weekend to make my event possible all of this when their was so much uncertainty from my end. She is extremely kind hearted. Her violin music was enjoyed by each one of my family member. It was truly a one of a kind experience for us, and thanks to Ilana for making it happen ❤️❤️
Ilana made our Mother’s Day memorable! She is the perfect musician for an intimate venue. Highly recommended!!
