Basil

Acoustic violin over original piano backing tracks, played with more energy than most people expect from the instrument. Basil is based in Ballina and works across private functions, weddings and festivals. The repertoire crosses classical, pop, rock, jazz and blues: Bach's Prelude from the First Suite, Vivaldi's Winter, Pachelbel's Canon, Piazzolla's Oblivion, Cavatina, Ave Maria, Autumn Leaves, What A Wonderful World, La Llorona. New songs can be learned for the occasion. He brings an amp and speaker plus two handheld microphones, though indoors or with a small crowd outside the violin usually carries on its own.
