"I have worked with Shean for a number of years and he is extremely organised, talented and reliable. I would have no hesitation in recommending his services to you. Not only is Shean a fabulous organist, he is an extremely experienced choir trainer and is very good at booking the best singers for the occasion. When you work with Shean, you will be working with the ultimate professional who is excellent at communication (and quick!) Thank you! "

"We are still recovering from Saturday’s wedding but I wanted to thank you for all you did. The service was both happy and moving, the trio was brilliant and the secret performance is still being talked of. It was a truly wonderful day for us. "

"Gareth's an absolute gem! We were in desperate need to find an organist weeks before our wedding, as our previous organist had to cancel. I came across Gareth's details and luckily he was available. He came to visit us at my family home where my mum insisted on giving him some of her home made Limoncello :) and even after that he manage to wow us with his music skills, a true talent! Thank you!"

"Thank you so much for all your help at the wedding reception of our daughter. Your piano playing was superb and was very much enjoyed by all there and gave a great ambience whilst the choice of music was impeccable. I am only sorry that you were unable to play for us at the church because of the requirement to use the local 'church organist' . Your punctuality and professionalism shine through and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone. Thank you again for making the day so special."

Thank you again for your comments Sarah, it was a pleasure to play for your drinks reception at The paddocks Hotel. I'm pleased that you were happy with my choice of music, although we did get a few requests in too! I wish you both all the best for the future.

"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! "

"Mark has performed several times at the RAF Wyton Officers' Mess at major functions and I can say without hesitation that he is a consummate pianist with a very wide and varied repertoire. The equipment he uses is also first class. He is eager to please his audience and is very flexible, adapting to different circumstances as they arise. I have no hesitation in recommending him for all types of functions."

"We were fortunate to have Mark play the hymns for us at our wedding ceremony in October 2016. His service was outstanding from start to finish and I would be very happy to recommend him."

"While planning a vintage tea party for Mum’s 90th birthday party, I needed an accompanist and piano player for my wartime and 40’s style sing along, which I planned to lead. My search found me the super talented and very accurate perfectionist Mark Burton at lastminutemusicians.com. When I made telephone contact and explained what I was planning, he totally understood and was very helpful making suggestions for songs to be played, arrangements and keys. We then had lots of communication over email, he was prompt to answer any questions and bent over backwards to help. On the day of the performance he greeted me with a smile and did his best to quell my nerves, during his solo spot, he played with distinction lots of old favourite tunes as background music. He played the piano in the venue for around 45 minutes solo then took a break and came back on his own keyboard with myself on vocals for a further hour set as accompaniment to my singing and the family sing along to tunes such as “putting on the Ritz” and a wartime medley from “pack up your troubles” through lots of other wonderful tunes ending on “land of hope and glory”. The result was that my Mother and indeed all of the family were thrilled to bits. They have been raving about it so much. It has given us outstanding and lasting memory of the perfect birthday with perfect entertainment supplied by Mark. Thank you so very much Mark you are an outstanding musician and I will recommend you to anyone in need."

"Mark, thank you so much for doing a brilliant job playing the organ for our wedding at Queens. Our guests commented on how great the organ sounded and we loved hearing Bollywood love themes played on the organ, that must be a first! Highly recommended."

"Richard and I want to thank you for the beautiful music you played at our Wedding Breakfast. It was just perfect and we had so many guests comment on how 'wonderful the pianist was'. Thank you also for playing Mendlessons's Wedding March as we arrived it was such a nice touch and sparked off the occasion brilliantly. We will treasure that memory always. "

"Thank you so much for playing for our wedding and helping to make it such a great day. Many people commented on the great choice of music, so thank you for pulling it off in such great style. The addition of your keyboard really did make all the difference, so thank you once again."

Thank you for using me for your special day. I enjoyed playing the little organ for the hymns (it was the smallest organ I have used to date with only 61 keys and 4 stops) I'm glad that the combination of pipe organ and keyboard made all the difference to the music - Walton's Coronation March was a very grand exit for you both! Good luck for the future.
