Jon played for us at our wedding reception with a few days notice. He played beautifully and we highly recommend him.

We hired Jon for our wedding and he did a fantastic job- technically excellent, played a great mix of songs (set was structured really nicely), and worked our requests in. Thanks!

Jon was an amazing addition to our day, it was a pleasure to have him join us and play throughout our wedding breakfast and ceremony.
Everybody has been commenting since, about the songs he played and how they suited the wedding so well.
We are honestly so happy with how our wedding went and we could not be more grateful for Jon being a part of making it happen.
Jon was on-time, efficient, accommodating and incredibly easy to speak with in the lead up to our wedding.
Thank you so much
Kayleigh & Shane Churcher

We invited Jonathan to play for our evening wedding reception where in addition to the afternoon guests we expected a total of about 75 people. We sent in a few requests ranging from Rachmaninov to Rod Stewart and Jonathan was able to learn what he did not already know and perform brilliantly. Many of the guests commented as to how much they enjoyed the music. We would certainly use his services again, the only problem is, we do not have another function lined up so we may have to organize one. He is also a very nice man who really knows how to balance volume against the conversation levels in the room, his experience shows.

Jonathan was fantastic from start to finish and added that special touch to our special day. He played a great variety of songs and the guests all commented how much they loved it. He was also a very nice man and easy to communicate with. We are so grateful, thank you so much. I would highly recommend him and am looking forward to another special event when we can use his services.

We booked Jon for our wedding last week and he was absolutely brilliant. Even better than we could have asked for and everybody thoroughly enjoyed his music. We had so many compliments on the day and loved the choices of music he played. Couldn’t recommend more highly for a wedding or event. Thanks again Jon!

Jon played during a champagne reception at our daughter's wedding on 1st June. He was extremely professional and easy to communicate with prior to the wedding and arrived in good time to set up. It was a very hot day and we placed the piano on the stage inside the marquee so Jon wasn't in direct sun but we got the impression that he would have set up outside quite happily if we wished. A very accommodating chap! The music was lovely and we left song choices to Jon as he is clearly very experienced. All in all, we would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Jon for any event. We love piano music and we very happy we had booked him.

Jon was fantastic, we had a Gatsby themed wedding and he was happy to oblige by playing pieces from the 1920s and 1930s. I would highly Jon to anyone.

Chloe and I want to thank you for your playing today. Several of our guests specifically commented to us that they enjoyed the music during the wedding breakfast, and we both agreed it was exactly as we wanted it, so thank you very much!

Undoubtedly the most successful and fun party that we've ever had and a large amount of credit for this goes to Jon ! Everyone joined in with the singing and we struggled to get anyone to go home as they were having such a great time. Jon was accommodating, polite and a brilliant pianist with an enormous repertoire! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and will definitely be booking him again for any future parties.

Just a quick message to say thank you so much for playing on Saturday. It was a shame about the weather but thank you for getting going so quickly in the hall. It meant so much to us having that moment with you playing to just the two of us in the hall. Hopefully we will see you again at another occasion and we will be back in touch at the next opportunity.

Jon is a fantastic pianist and went out of his way to play the songs that we wanted. He was so helpful and nothing was ever too much. I sent quite a few emails leading up and he would always respond very quickly. He was very happy to play for us from the ceremony right the way through until after the wedding meal. Jon played a mixture of his songs during the wedding meal and canapés and the music we had chosen for our ceremony was just perfect.

Jon played at our wedding in September 2017 and he was fantastic. We found him online and when we heard his version of A Thousand Years we absolutely fell in love it. He is very talented musician and gave us many music suggestions to be played during the ceremony and drinks reception. Highly recommend Jon and would like to thank him for making our wedding even more unforgettable.

Just to say thanks for last night, and the feed back has been very complimentary about the whole evening which was undoubtedly enhanced by your lovely playing.
I thought it was fabulous to hear the guests singing along to your music.
Can I make a booking for our next event please.

Thank you so much for the wonderful job you did playing for hours at our wedding. You kept our guests entertained while we were away for photos, and our wedding breakfast was enhanced by hearing snatches of some of our favourite songs, played so beautifully. Thank you also for learning our requests quite last minute ! The care and professionalism you showed us was very much appreciated.

Richard and I would like to thank you for making our evening such a success. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves as much as we did, exemplified by your music.

I just wanted to say a big "thank you" for playing on Sunday. Pat (the birthday girl) loved it, and keeps talking about how perfect the music was.
It really made the atmosphere of the day.
Thank you also for including some of her favourites after our very last minute request.

We will highly recommend you to anyone considering a pianist for their event.
Many thanks.

We hired Jonathan to play at our recent wedding in September. We did have a little concern, as in the initial meeting he was quite nervous, but when he starts playing this vanishes completely. His suggestions regarding the music for the ceremony and for the breakfast afterwards were very helpful. Although he hadn't heard of the music we wanted for the start of the ceremony, he was happy to research it, the end result was just perfect for us. Our guests commented on how well he played and my new father-in-law in particular was very impressed with Jonathan. I would recommend Jonathan for his professionalism and skill, he really helped to make our day just right.

Jon arrived punctually for our event and was smartly presented. Everyone was delighted with his playing which was fluid and varied. A number of special requests were made and Jon responded with enthusiasm.

Nothing was too much trouble and, although Jon played for longer than we had booked, everyone would have stayed and listened to his playing all night if they had the opportunity. Jon has a light and sensitive style and is highly recommended.

Eleanor (Staff Summer Party) 23 Aug 2016

Jon was absolutely brilliant. He was very friendly and played absolutely beautifully. The music really set the tone for our event and I would definitely recommend hiring him.

I knew the moment I heard Jon's demo tracks on the web that he was the musician for my wife's 65th Birthday Party. Jon easily met and exceeded expectations. We asked him to play Porter and Gershwin songs such as "True Love" and "Embraceable You". Jon plays with such style, it's a joy to listen. Jon had a foot injury and his tennis buddy Ian brought him to our place. Gosh, Ian's also a great pianist. My wife loved their duet of Joplin's "The Entertainer". I've been looking forward to this party for a year and so happy with the performance. Now I'm going to cook up another excuse for a party so that we can invite Jon to play again. Thank You, Jon. 10/10. Couldn't be better.

Jon was a flexible and very wonderful part of the party who made everyone feel at ease with his style of music and wonderful arrangements.

He was a pleasure to have at the party and I wouldn't hesitate to use his services again.

Jonathan recently played at our friend's wedding in Hurley, Berkshire.
As we all filed out of the library after the ceremony, Jonathan was there in the drawing room, playing piano for the happy couple.
He played all our favourites and many requests as well. We were all impressed by his professional attitude, calm approach and musical ability.
Would we recommend him ? Absolutely!
