Reviews of Keyboard player for gigs, shows and exams

Alex was amazing. He played the piano at my daughter's wedding at Prestwold Hall. From the moment we booked him , he kept in touch and took the time to find out about the style of music we wanted, including our requests for some specific tunes. He sent us a video of himself playing the tunes so we got a real feel for how it would sound on the day. He was more than happy with any changes we made closer to the big day. He arrived promptly at the wedding venue, smartly dressed and was very friendly and approachable. He was right on cue with all the music changes and many of the guests conveyed to us how good Alex was. We cannot highly recommend him enough. Thank you Alex for being part of our special day.

We honestly can’t thank Alex enough for being such a special part of our wedding day. His beautiful playing created such a wonderful atmosphere throughout the day, and so many of our guests commented on how incredible he was.

Alex played the grand piano during our drinks reception, creating the perfect elegant backdrop as we celebrated with our guests. He then brought his baby grand piano for the wedding breakfast, which made the whole experience feel even more personal and special. Hearing so many of our favourite songs throughout the day was absolutely wonderful.

The music quiz was also a huge success and such a fun addition to our wedding breakfast. Everyone got involved, and it became a real talking point throughout the meal — definitely one of our favourite touches of the day!

From start to finish, Alex was incredibly talented, professional and friendly, and we felt so lucky to have him there. Thank you, Alex, for helping make our wedding day so memorable. We couldn’t recommend him highly enough!

Alex played at our church wedding in September and absolutely made our day. We chose the music for the day and Alex but together a video showcasing the music we had chosen to make sure we were happy with it. On the day it was magical right from the guests arriving to when we left the church. We couldn't have asked for more. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Alex - live music made it a day to remember.

Alex was an absolute joy to work with! Incredibly professional and a truly wonderful pianist, he catered to all musical tastes—young, old, and everyone in between—at my son’s birthday party. He helped make an already special day unforgettable, and we couldn’t be more grateful. We would highly recommend Alex to make any occasion extra special.

We had the absolute pleasure of having Alex play piano at our wedding, and he was fantastic from start to finish. He was so easy and relaxed to work with—completely stress-free. He quietly set up in the room and just did his thing, creating a beautiful atmosphere without needing any direction.
Before the day, he asked us for a few of our favorite songs and thoughtfully included them in his playlist, which made everything feel so personal. The sound of the piano was stunning and added such a special touch to the whole day.
We absolutely loved having Alex as part of our celebration and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for live music at their wedding. Book him—you won’t regret it!

You have become a great asset to GMVC and myself, I enjoy working with you particularly as a soloist and in part practice. It is a really comfortable position knowing we have someone of your abilities and commitment by our side.

Alex played an assortment of piano music during our evening event, that we all thoroughly enjoyed..
He is a very talented pianist, capable of playing any genre he also accompanying a group of members from the Gresley Male Voice Choir that joined us that evening.

I really wanted to thank you so much, your playing was amazing and I honestly found myself just sat getting lost in the music throughout the day. It was perfect for setting the different moods needed throughout the day. I will be honest with you we spent a long time deciding whether or not live music was required and I can definitely say it was and it was one of my favourite parts of the day ( other then getting married I suppose 😁). Thank you again it was perfect.

We were lucky enough to have Alex play at our wedding, both for the reception and the wedding breakfast, and he was truly exceptional in every way! From the very beginning, he was so accommodating and responsive, always willing to work with us on song selections and ensuring everything was exactly as we envisioned. His flexibility in tailoring the music to fit the mood of the day was just wonderful.

Most importantly, the music itself was simply beautiful. The moment our guests entered the reception, the atmosphere was instantly elevated by his elegant playing. Every note was perfect, and his repertoire offered a timeless, classic feel that matched our wedding perfectly.

If you’re looking for a talented pianist who will not only play beautifully but also be a joy to work with, I can’t recommend Alex highly enough. His music brought an extra layer of sophistication and warmth to our wedding, and I would absolutely encourage any couple looking for classic, elegant entertainment to book him for their big day. Thank you so much for making our wedding unforgettable!

Alex is not only a fantastic pianist but also a lovely guy. He made our wedding day so special, and I cannot recommend him enough. We worked out a playlist together of songs that we wanted, and he did not hesitate to learn some slightly more eclectic choices... Like video game theme songs. Listening to him play was just delightful. All our guests told us how wonderful the music was. He was professional, smart, and just took our wedding day to a whole new level. He was happy to keep the secret of my walking down the aisle song from my husband to be and jazzed up our leaving the ceremony song to keep it in line with the style we wanted. We could not have asked for more. The more people that get to hear Alex play the better. We feel lucky to have had the honour of him playing at our wedding. Thank you so much Alex, there aren't enough words to get across how much we appreciate what you did for us on our special day.

I cannot recommend Alex enough! He played at our wedding and did an absolutely brilliant job. Despite some last-minute changes and all our specific requests, he went above and beyond to deliver better than we ever expected. The whole experience was amazing—he was so informative, even recording trial versions to ensure he was playing the right pieces for us. Everything went so smoothly and effortlessly, thanks to his professionalism and talent. He’s not only incredibly talented but also a pleasure to chat with. If you're looking for someone to add that extra special touch, Alex is the one!

I would just like to put on record my appreciation for input into making a success of my 75th Birthday Celebration Party at the Nottingham Cosy Club.

From our initial discussion and follow up sessions by e-mail you were able to assist me in the choices of music and styles that you could offer. I was particularly impressed with the video of proposed tunes that you sent over to me.

In relation to the event itself you arrived early, set up and were ready to perform well in advance of the first guests coming into the venue. During the course of the evening you played our agreed choices and the guests were delighted as it added greatly to the ambience of the occasion.

In relation to booking your system is simple and your terms and conditions were not complicated.

Finally let me say I would be happy to use you again and recommend you to others requiring your services.

We had a great private concert. Alex was accommodating on music, a good pianist and very pleasant. I would recommend!
