Cello & Home hero

What to expect

Personal from first note to final guest.

Artist-led planning

Olenka shapes the repertoire, ensemble, timing, and room experience with each host.

Respect for private spaces

Homes, guests, and musicians are photographed or shared only with clear permission.

A clear, considered proposal

Every engagement is scoped around the setting, guest count, musicians, hospitality, and budget before a contract and deposit are confirmed.

The experience

A salon made for your room.

Not a concert dropped into a house, but an evening composed around the character of the home and the people gathered there.

  1. 01

    Begin with the home

    We discuss the room, its story, the occasion, preferred date, approximate guest count, and the atmosphere you want to create.

  2. 02

    Compose the program

    Olenka selects music and invites the right players—from cello-led duos to trios and larger chamber combinations.

  3. 03

    Gather and listen

    Welcome guests with refreshments, introduce the home, then settle into a close, conversational performance followed by time with the musicians.

  4. 04

    Remember the evening

    If desired and approved, architectural details and short performance moments can be documented without compromising guest privacy.
