Welcome to my music business website. My name is Barbara Gilbertson and I live in Cumbria. I am a professional, classically trained violinist and pianist, originally from Northern Ireland. I launched Music for Life in Spring 2010.
Music for Life offers a multitude of musical options for your event. I will work with you to create an unforgettable soundtrack for your celebration or gathering. My bespoke service means that I can advise and completely organise your music requirements if necessary, or provide what you have already decided you would like.
I will be available to you every step of your journey until the big day. You can be assured that my attention to detail, extensive experience as an organiser and performer will mean that you can sit back and enjoy your event (and the music of course) with complete confidence.
