​
The Brief
​Momentum Music Talent Agency had the honour of collaborating with Matchroom Boxing to provide a solo violinist for Anthony Joshua’s ring entrance at the highly anticipated fight against Robert Helenius at the O2 Arena. With limited time, as the previous performer had cancelled last minute, the task was to secure a talented violinist who could quickly learn the iconic Godfather theme tune and provide a captivating, energising performance to accompany Joshua’s dramatic walk to the ring.

The Challenges
1. Short Notice: The booking was made on the day of the fight, leaving minimal time to arrange suitable entertainment and rehearse the performance.

2. High-Pressure Performance: The atmosphere at the O2 Arena demanded a flawless performance, as the music would be part of one of the most high-profile boxing events of the year, with thousands of fans in attendance.

3. Perfect Timing and Execution: The violinist needed to ensure perfect timing, matching the dramatic entrance of Anthony Joshua while capturing the attention of both the audience and the fighter.
​
The Solution
In a matter of hours, we discovered and secured Violinist Natalia Senior-Brown, a talented artist capable of quickly learning and delivering a flawless rendition of the Godfather theme tune. Natalia’s performance elevated the entrance, setting an unforgettable tone as Joshua made his way to the ring. Her music heightened the dramatic anticipation, creating a legendary atmosphere that amplified the excitement in the arena.

The Results
Natalia’s performance during Anthony Joshua’s entrance was both powerful and precise, ensuring that the entrance was as epic as the event itself. Joshua went on to secure a victory in the fight, and many attributed the electrifying atmosphere to the entertainment provided. The violin performance contributed to a high-energy moment that captivated both the crowd and the champion, building the perfect foundation for the fight ahead.
