Sadie Varius playing her glowing transparent violin on a dock at dusk

Sadie Varius

Paris-trained. New York-booked. One violinist, a custom transparent instrument, and concert-grade sound — no other vendor required.

Scroll — the film follows your hand
Thirty years, one instrument.The artist

A life that eats, sleeps and breathes violin — the kind of experience that reads a room in real time and lifts the emotional peak of your moment, not just the setlist.

Every vibration, captured.The transparent violin

Eight to ten microphones seeded through the instrument's transparent body catch every note, every intensity, every breath of the bow — and reproduce the emotion with nothing lost.

Plug-and-play, anywhere.Sound, handled

A clear technical rider makes her violin plug straight into your venue's system — and for intimate rooms or open air, she brings and runs her own professional sound. Either way, zero surprises.

A dress made of light.One of one

Her couture dress glows — hundreds of points of light woven into the fabric, shifting color in harmony with the music. You hear the music and watch it.

Your wedding, scored live.

Each program is designed with you, piece by piece — classical, film scores, pop, electro, rock, and the requests that make it yours.

Plan your ceremony music
The instrument

A violin you can see through.

Custom-commissioned from a word-of-mouth luthier — a six-month waitlist for an instrument that exists nowhere else. More than ten microphones are embedded through its transparent body, so every nuance reaches the room exactly as she plays it.

A wedding happens once. The sound cannot fail.

The transparent violin
The dress

She plays light. And wears it.

A couture piece made to her measure in Paris — in the dark, it becomes the performance: light woven through the fabric, changing color with the music itself.

Corporate & private events

The reveal, amplified.

Launches, galas, brand moments — one artist, a clear technical rider your production team plugs straight into, and her own sound for intimate venues. A single point of contact, even with a full ensemble.

Louis Vuitton said yes. So did The Plaza Hotel. Nobody plays a private evening inside Louis Vuitton's Champs-Élysées flagship, the Ritz on Place Vendôme, or a wedding inside The Plaza Hotel without being examined first — the sound, the presence, the discretion. Those doors only open from the inside — the Metropolitan Club's included; hers have been opening for fifteen years, Paris and now New York. And these are only the names you'd recognize. Book her, and that vetting comes with her. Your guests won't know why the evening feels this assured. You will.

One recording says more than any biography — her "Experience" (Einaudi), captured straight from the instrument.
