Review Centre: Pianists & Keyboardists

"With a month or so to go before our wedding (July 2015) we found ourselves without an organist. Not knowing quite what to do next, we turned to Google and found Lastminutemusicians.com. Choosing an organist from the site was such a daunting prospect given how important the organist's role was to be and not knowing if the person we would end up choosing would be any good! After a number of replies from other performers we chose Mark and we couldn't have been in better hands. Mark is a true professional and a talented performer. He is eager to please, vastly experienced and could adapt most songs/pieces of music for the organ. A week or so before our wedding, and in his own time, he visited our chapel and familiarised himself with the organ he would be playing. We also spoke frequently on the phone to discuss our thoughts regarding what we wanted to be performed and he also provided helpful suggestions and ideas without 'taking over'. On the day itself he was prompt, well presented and played beautifully. Thank you again Mark for your contribution to our special day, I really can't recommend you enough...in fact two of the guests at our wedding used Mark as the organist at their wedding having been impressed, I'm sure, at what they heard!"

Reply by Mark Burton - Wedding Organist / Pianist
Mark and Di - the pleasure was all mine! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to play the Binns Organ in Queens College, Cambridge - it was a treat for me too as an organist. I'm pleased that you were happy with my performance on such a hot day, the organ took time to set up for the wedding, but it was worth it. And, I got to do it all again in August for your friends wedding in the same chapel!

"Tom was an absolutely delight from start to finish! He showed up 40mins early to the church ceremony to get set up without any fuss. Music wise - Tom was brilliant and is clearly very talented, we had nothing but positive feedback from our guests. Tom is a sincerely nice man as well and we highly recommend using him for any event.

"Sarah is amazing. She plays to a very high standard and learnt new pieces of music at short notice to satisfy our request. She communicated regularly and professionally. She is worth every penny of her fee. She plays with such emotion that she even got me all emotional at one point. She really filled the ceremony room with beauty and created a perfect ambience afterwards for the drinks reception. Don't hesitate to book Sarah. You won't be disappointed "

"As soon as I had seen and heard Michael play I knew straight away I wanted him to play at our valentines event at The George and Dragon Graveley. I didn't even continue my search and how right I was. The evening was absolutely beautiful. Michael was the main event of our evening, very polite and professional. I'm trying to make an event so that we can have him back again!"

"Hey Mark, we just got back from the honeymoon this week, and as things are starting to calm down I've had a little more time to reflect. I just wanted to say a massive thank you for all your hard work on our wedding a couple weeks ago! Your playing was beautiful, the songs sounded amazing and I kept hearing tunes I love throughout the dinner. It was the perfect, classic addition to our special day. You absolutely knocked it out of the park, thank you. I feel so honored that you were a part of our special day! Genuinely, thank you so much for everything. "

"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. "
