Being a violinist since the age of four, and and earning a B.M. in Violin Performance from Temple University Boyer College of Music, nothing makes me happier than touching another's person's life or making their day through performing my instrument! From the beautiful sounds of classical music to the soulful harmonies of jazz, R&B, and gospel, I am happy to help make your day as special as can be. I look forward to working with you!
Eunice has a GIFT!!! My husband and I hired her for our wedding and she was phenomenal! The way she checked in before, had a meeting set up months prior, and then was able to adjust to our processional order, which was very different than a traditional one — mind blowing. She is a sweetheart and very intentional with her work. Everyone after the wedding was talking about her genre range and how beautiful each song flowed with each other!
Response from Eunice C. China:
Hi Celine!! Thank you so much for your wonderful review! Thank you for having me. I am so blessed to have been a part of your day to remember!
Ms. China is extremely talented and provided several hip-hop and RandB selections during our Centennial VIP Cocktail reception.
Thank you for sharing your awesome talent with our guest. Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!
Response from Eunice C. China:
Thank you so much! It was an absolute pleasure to perform for you!
Eunice was amazing and so gracious. My guests and I really loved her. She was a perfect fit for our wedding at the Morris Arboretum.
Very professional! Absolutely amazing intonation!
I hosted an elegant dinner party to celebrate my 25th year in the Air Force and decided that a violinist playing during dinner would enhance the entire event. A friend referred Eunice and the rest is history. I was beyond impressed by her professionalism, customer service and AMAZING SKILL! The whole crowd was absolutely mesmerized by her performance and she is just an absolute joy to be around. I can't say enough great things. If you are looking for a Violinist, you can stop looking. Eunice is the ONE.
Response from Eunice C. China:
Awe thank you for your kind review! It was an absolute pleasure performing for you! ❤️
Eunice was an incredible part of our wedding ceremony! She is extremely talented, responsive, and professional. She was so kind and professional, she even learned multiple new songs for our ceremony. I'm sad I didn't get to spend more time with her (as the bride)! I highly recommend hiring Eunice for your event!!!
Oh my god Eunice play so beautiful, so professional we’re very, very pleased, we would Definitely hire her again
Eunice is a kind sweet soul you can tell loves her craft. She provided an interactive experience to my guests yesterday for a dinner party- and made the night unforgettable. From beginning to end, Eunice had great communication, alongside an excellent personality. She appeared early to the event, was beautifully dressed and did her THING. My guests loved it. I loved it. And find myself replaying the videos over and over again. I am so very grateful to have worked with her and intend to work with Eunice in the future. I would recommend her ten times over. Bravo.
Eunice is pure magic with her violin. She played for our outdoor wedding and we were absolutely blown away. Leading up to the wedding she was prompt with her responses and always made herself available to discuss any questions or issues we had. She was early to the wedding and her playing was beautiful. Eunice also played our cocktail hour and I cannot put into words how amazing she was. She walked around the area, playing and interacting with guests, like the true professional she is. She took requests and even played a special song for my grandfather that had him smiling like I haven't seen in years.
If you are thinking of hiring Eunice, don't hesitate. She is a lovely person, a true professional, and a rare talent. We are lucky to have had her at our wedding!
Response from Eunice C. China:
Awe thank you so much Melanie for your amazing review! It was such a joy and pleasure performing for your special day! 🤍 Your guests were so kind, and I truly had a good time 😊
Eunice was beyond phenomenal, she created the perfect atmosphere for my proposal and Engagement party I threw for my girlfriend. Throughout the event and even after I had guess raving about Eunice. Her performance was absolutely one of the highlight for my event. She made the whole event and experience unforgettable. I will for definitely be booking her for my wedding.
Eunice played the music for my uncle's viewing. She arrived and was set up to play before scheduled. There wasn't a funeral service, just a two hour viewing with Eunice playing the violin; she was absolutely phenomenal! Everyone agreed that it was a beautiful tribute and that my uncle, who was 94, would have loved it. I was very lucky to have found and hired her, I was so very pleased and will always have the great memory of my uncle's beautiful and final farewell.
Eunice played in our wedding cocktail hour, and it was an amazing performance. Our guests enjoyed every minute of it, and Eunice repertoire made it very enjoyable. Eunice is very professional and courteous. Definitely recommend her, and can't wait for our next event. Thank you🙏

Response from Eunice C. China:
Dear Tiffany,
Thank you so much for choosing me to perform during your special day. It was an absolute pleasure to perform for you and your lovely guests! 🤍
Eunice was amazing. She was on time and came fully prepared for any twist thrown at her and we threw a few lol and she was able to adjust flawlessly every time. If you are looking for a violinist stop your search here. She is worth every penny. Everyone loved her playing. Thank you so much for performing at our wedding.
Response from Eunice C. China:
Dear Richard,
Thank you so much for having me! It was such a pleasure to perform for you. I must say (I also told my family), this was one of the smoothest, calmest, and reflective weddings I have ever played for. Everyone was so easy-going and the bride looked absolutely beautiful, like an angel from heaven. I was definitely hiding my tears for your vowels. Thanks for having me :)
Eunice literally came to my rescue! 2 days before my wedding, my violinist notified me that she would be unable to perform my ceremony music due to personal reasons. I was devastated. I had been planning my wedding for 2 and a half years, after having to postpone due to Covid. A violinist performing my ceremony music, was something I envisioned from the very beginning. With it being so close to my wedding day and thinking it was too late to find a replacement, Eunice literally came to the rescue and made miracles happen! She knew all the songs I wanted played for my ceremony and was just so super friendly and excited. We chatted on the phone prior to my event and she made me feel like we had been working together to plan this thing since the beginning! And let me tell you, she absolutely KILLED IT at my ceremony and cocktail hour! I couldn’t have been more pleased and impressed. And everyone who attended my wedding said how amazing she was! It was perfect and I couldn’t be more thankful to her for saving my vision and making it come to life!
Response from Eunice C. China:

OMG when I tell you that me an my friends were so excited and pleased with her performance. Eunice was engaging, full of energy not to mention her sweet personality. I will definitely book her again!
Eunice was simply amazing, she brought the right blend of R&B and old school hip hop to my event. Her poise and professionalism was refreshing. She made sure she connected with all of my guest, all the while focusing on the two birthday queens. She's a MUST for any style event!!
Eunice was fantastic at our wedding she played everything we requested mingled with the guests and it was an absolute joy to have her perform
Eunice is an amazing musician and human being! She made my wedding ceremony a dream come true! She had great recommendations for songs to play and worked amazingly well with our church music coordinator! She is such a warm and kind spirit! I will recommend her 1000x to everyone who needs a violinist, no matter what kind of event! Thank you so much Eunice!
Response from Eunice C. China:
Awe thank you so much for choosing me, and for your wonderful review! I am beyond honored to have played for your beautiful wedding! Wishes for happiness, joy, and love for ever more!
Eunice is a true professional and an amazing violinist. I’ve had the opportunity to have her play during my proposal to my now wife and on my wedding day. She’s very responsive and extremely nice. I highly recommended using Eunice for your services.
Response from Eunice C. China:
Awe thank you so much for your kind review. It was such a pleasure playing for the both of you—both for your engagement and for your wedding ceremony. Congratulations again! 🤍
Eunice was a gem 💎 and I am so glad I selected her. My parents & I are extremely satisfied with her performance. The love she has for what she does was expressed with every smile and stroke of her violin. Thank you for making my parents dinner amazing! 🎻 ❤️

Response from Eunice C. China:
Dear Mr. Rumpsey,
Thank you for your kind review! The pleasure was certainly mine! I enjoyed playing for your St. Patrick's Day party, and everyone was very warm and welcoming. Have a blessed spring!
I reached out to Eunice a few weeks before my wedding with two songs, and she delivered beautifully! I had a simple backyard wedding, and Eunice brought such a special element that I will remember and cherish forever. She is really professional, coordinated with my color palette, and her sample turnaround time is really quick. I truly enjoyed working with her and plan to book her for future events.
Response from Eunice C. China:
Dear Chanelle,
Thank you so much for your kind words, they are appreciated. I absolutely enjoyed playing for your special day, and am glad you enjoyed my overall services. Do not hesitate to reach out if you need me again!
It was a huge surprise to have Eunice at my mom's birthday and the party stopped when Eunice arrived and started playing. Everyone pulled up chairs and were just listening to Eunice play. She was great and a real treat to have at our party. Will definitely have her come out and play again in the future.
Response from Eunice C. China:

I held a birthday picnic for my fiancée, the performance by Eunice made the day more special than I could have ever hoped for.
Not only was her performance awe inspiring but her presence and personal interaction added a special touch to the event.
Response from Eunice C. China:
Hi Gerald, Thank you so much for your kind review! It was a lovely pleasure to perform for you and your fiancée. Best wishes to you both!
She was amazing and very professional. Went above and beyond to make the event the best it could be.
Response from Eunice C. China:
Dear Durrell,
Thank you for having me and for your kind review, it was really a blast working with you. All the best in your endeavors!
I recently engaged Eunice for a surprise welcome home (active military) and birthday celebration for my wife with close friends and family at our personal residence. As the majority of close friends and family in attendance do not frequent orchestra and/or comparable string based concerts, I was a bit reluctant about having a violinist at the event. After discussing the details of how I preferred the contracted time proceed, Eunice communicated that she could accommodate a dedicated session as the primary attraction playing classical music, but welcomed my suggestion of playing popular/contemporary rhythm and blues. Oh boy - did she not disappoint. Not only did she perform incredibly well, but she also was able to capture the spirit and energy of our guests - culminating in her taking personal request of guest. Without question - we were beyond pleased with her talent. She is a must have at your next event!!!!
Response from Eunice C. China:
Dear Mr. Bowers, Thank you so much for your AMAZING review!! I am happy that I can share a moment with you and your guests on that special day. I am touched ☺️ May God bless you! ~
Eunice is just darling! So very talented and so very easy to work with. We enjoyed her immensely and we're so glad to have found her!
Response from Eunice C. China:
Thank you kindly for your review! The pleasure was mine.
Eunice was a delight! I hired her to play violin for my very small backyard wedding—including the ceremony and reception. The music was lovely and we got rave reviews from all of our guests about her music. She was very flexible about our music selection for the ceremony itself, but also chose excellent songs (at her discretion) for the cocktail hour reception.
She was super easy to communicate with prior to the event and day of and was incredibly professional. We had a slight change of plans day of and she was very flexible and so easy to work with. She was so nice, cheerful and an absolute delight. We loved her!
Eunice was punctual and professional, in addition to being a very talented musician. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.
Response from Eunice C. China:
Hello Ms. Conboy,
Thank you very much for your review! Playing for the celebration was my pleasure!
All the best,
Eunice
I really like her. Music was absolutely amazing and communication was easy.
Response from Eunice C. China:
Hi Thank you kindly for the feedback! It was an absolutely pleasure working with you. (Excuse the extremely reply).
Immediately I was blown away by her professionalism. She played the perfect set for a romantic evening planned for my girlfriend on Valentines Day. I would recommend this lovely young woman to any and everyone.
Response from Eunice C. China:
Hello Kyle,
Thank you very much
Ms. Eunice China was delight to have for our event. She was flexible with our musical request even though it was outside her normal repertoire. I sent her the sheet music and she was able to adapt it to her instrument beautifully. She was professional and responsive, not to mention her obvious playing expertise.
We will attempt to have her back in December for our Lessons and Carols service.
I would highly recommend Ms. China for any event that you have.
She's very dedicated. She had made the ceremony magical!
Very nice and flexible with our ceremony. She was able to adapt nicely to our venue, and prepared a special request piece for the ceremony with ease. All of our guests loved the music and her performance. Thanks for a great evening!
