Kia Ora & Welcome
Who is Oliver Smith?
I am a violin player based in Auckland, New Zealand.
I play for fun, for communicating to the heartstrings, for your entertainment and to bring pleasure to the congregation.
I have been playing the violin since I was eight years old. I enjoy playing many different styles and have been an orchestral violinist, played in several Irish bands, been a session violinist on CD's and I enjoy teaching people.
If you are looking to entertain your guests and friends with uplifting music with a touch of class, I would love to hear what you have planned for your special occasion and see if I can embellish it.

Testimonials
A little ray of sunshine to thank you ever so much for entertaining everyone so brilliantly at the wedding... You are definitely missing your vocation and should be treading the boards.
Thanks also for the champers which we guzzled on our honeymoon - a delicious complement to idylic Golden Bay.

Oliver was our violinist at our wedding at our local rugby club College Rifles. He is an exceptionally good and talented violinist, sharing his love of the instrument with those he plays for. Professional and gorgeous, we had so many compliments of his performance! I would highly recommend Oliver for your wedding.

From the moment I discovered Oliver played the violin at events, I knew I wanted to book him for my own wedding ceremony.
Oliver made me feel so comfortable and at ease during the planning process, right through to the event itself. I felt like I had enough control over what I wanted, while trusting him with his own artistic skill and talent to read the room and keep the guests entertained.
Oliver's musical talents well and truly exceeded not only my expectations, but that of my guests as well. We received positively glowing feedback of his artistic gifts!
If you are looking for a personable, well presented, professional and highly talented artist to entertain your guests, I would highly recommend you give Oliver a call. You won't be disappointed.
