Reviews of Organist and Pianist

Lester is an incredible musician with a great personality. Have enjoyed listen to him perform on many occasions!
He has a wide repertoire in both piano and brass and loves performing Freddie songs!
He is the very very best piano teacher who inspired both my children to become competent musicians with a love for music.
Can highly recommend him.

I feel very fortunate to have found Lester on lastminutemusicians.com. He offered exactly what I was looking for; beautifully played classical piano to greet and entertain my guests before supper and excellent renditions of the music of Freddie Mercury (complete with costume change) to entertain us after supper! Just brilliant!
Lester is a lovely person and is very easy going. We communicated many, many times, via email, prior to the event, as he wanted to provide exactly what was requested. We were all delighted with the excellent standard of his playing and I highly recommend this most personable and talented young man.

I would recommend Lester to anyone and everyone. As one of his first piano pupils I had lessons with Lester for nearly ten years, and if I was in the area I still would!

Lester was both patient with me as a child and understanding of other commitments as a young adult. He is thorough, and owe my solid grounding in music theory to him (even if I did hate my theory homework at the time!)

Lester taught me piano from grades 1 up to 8, and I always achieved high grades due to his preparation. I would also have great faith that he could teach me far beyond this level. He will drive you to be the best you can, always providing good honest feedback.

I can’t rate Lester enough for opening the doors to a lifetime of enjoyment in music, he’s great!

He is an excellent teacher. He taught me the French Horn for something in the region of 8 years and all of the lessons I had were to the highest level of teaching. His musical knowledge is second to none, and his accompanying pieces in exams were flawless. He is also probably the nicest teacher I have had in any discipline and would definitely recommend Lester as a teacher and probably for any other music related role!

Having seen the results of Lester's work over a number of years I would highly recommend. Wonderful accompanist, amazing all round musician, really gets the best out of his pupils.

5* accompanist! Lester has accompanied both me and my singing students and I would highly recommend him. Superb teacher too, I believe!

Lester is one of the most talented musicians I have had the joy of working with. Would highly recommend him as both music teacher and accompanist.

I can’t praise Lester highly enough. He played fantastically and just what we wanted. We had many a lovely comment about how good he was. He was easy to deal with and response on email. Highly recommended.

Lester provided our church music and hymms for our wedding in September 2018 and was absolutely brilliant. He was great at organising everything with us beforehand and on the day was fantastic. It was stress free as Lester was very reassuring with the whole process and the music we chose was played so well and exactly how we wanted. We wouldnt change a thing, the ceremony was perfect and would highly recommend Lester. Thank you!

Lester played classical piano at our church wedding ceremony, alongside an operatic vocalist. The pieces of music that Lester played blew our guests away and was one of the highlights of our big day. Lester even went to the effort of independently communicating with the vocalist in advance of the wedding day and they met for a rehearsal on the morning of the wedding. My wife and I really appreciated the efforts that Lester went to in order to make the ceremony so special. Everyone loved the pieces of music so much and it really contributed to the joyful atmosphere in the church.

A hugely talented pianist, complete professional and a lovely guy. Couldn't recommend more highly!

Lester has a fantastic talent. He was very reliable and we felt incredibly confident that the music at our wedding was going to be perfect. He didn’t let us down! Highly recommended.

An exceptionally fine keyboardist. Dependable, highly musical and a lovely person!

Honestly one of the best accompanists I’ve ever worked with! Lester is such a dependable and technically brilliant musician - what more can I say?!

Lester is a first class musician, performer, and teacher. His skills as an arranger, accompanist, and his down to earth approach make him an excellent gentleman to work with.

Lester is a fantastic teacher who accompanied me on the piano on multiple occasions, always very patient when I couldn't count bars rest and constantly being supportive and willing to help. Would recommend his piano teaching to anyone with any level of skill!
