"Thanks for doing such a great job with 'Looking Back' on Monday. An excellent concert, lovely playing in tricky repertoire at astonishingly short notice. I hope you enjoyed it as much as the audience clearly did!"

"What can I say about James? Since booking him to be our wedding DJ at the beginning of the year, James has been amazing. The support and advice and information he provided was endless - this guy knows his stuff! James, having worked in the wedding industry for years now, gave me advice on plenty of wedding areas - not just music related. James is a genuinely helpful person and he was invaluable to us! On the night he was a gem. He arrived nice and early to get unpacked. His set-up is very impressive and looks very smart/professional. He played exactly what my guests asked for (ranging from Beatles to heavy metal!) and was charming with every single one of them. James also did us an enormous favour on the night in getting up and drumming with our band for a couple of songs (without practice!) which just adds another string to his bow. James' services don't just stop at being a 'top dee-jayuh' - he plays the piano beautifully. I've heard him play many times and even have one of his CDs in my car. This guys talent shows no end and I would truly recommend him to anyone (and everyone)."

"David was brilliant! He provided excellent accompaniment to our pub carols on his piano, in a variety of styles from traditional to cockney- and really got our punters singing and having fun. He brought along some singers who provided a lovely set of carols and he got the kids involved too. He then helped us out on our traditional sing along of 12 days of Christmas and We Three Kings and was superb. Second year in a row that we've booked him- well worth the money! "

"WOW WOW WOW, didn't you make our day, the praise, comments, just sheer appreciation for the performance you gave. After eating a lot ,drinking a lot and listening to some boring speeches you swept on like a breath of fresh air and lifted the whole atmosphere. Very well done, it was worth every penny we spent. A couple of geriatrics in the corner said, "thats easy, she is just miming to a CD"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think you will get some repeat business as a few did ask who you were, I hope you do. Thanks again ,I hope I can use you again sometime"

"Nigel played for our wedding service and reception at Blenheim Palace. Nigel was amazing, he communicated very professionally and took his time to ensure we had just what we wanted. Nigel is a total professional and has a great ear for music and plays sensitively with emotion and passion. You can choose from an array of songs and if it’s not in Nigel's extensive repertoire, you do as we did and ask Nigel to play a specific piece for your big day, he was truly amazing and we got just what we wanted. If you are looking for your own personal piano player I cannot recommend Nigel enough, he has his own set up and quality PA System, which is aesthetically pleasing. Whatever your event or whatever genre you need pop songs, jazz, classical or you own special piece. Thank you for making our day so special, Jon and Laura "

"MacIntyre loves it when we have Nigel booked on our calendar and have experienced this lots over the past few years. Nigel is a regular at our Memory Cafe in Milton Keynes, always turning up with enthusiasm and calmness. Nigel always ensures he is inclusive. We all sing a long and love listening to the huge range of Nigel's musical talents. Since the pandemic we still work closely with Nigel via zoom , sitting back and taking in the music or at times where we all join in and have lots of fun. Lastly not forgetting that MacIntyre Families Podcast is beautifully complemented with the composition of Nigel's music as the theme tune, when asked to create this bespoke piece of music Nigel didn't disappoint and we recommend this 100% to anyone who would like some unique music , absolutely incredible! Thanks so much and cant wait to work with you again in the very near future Nigel ."

"Christa Hugo has played for us in our care home twice via Zoom. We have always had an amazing time. She is lovely with the residents, introducing all the music, sometimes asking a question or two. The residents truly feel part of the show, not just watching. There is plenty of singing and foot tapping going on! Christa, thank you so much. We are grateful that we have access to music like this in our home."

"Jonny played at our wedding, and we - and all the guests - loved his music. He created a great atmosphere, which was perfect for our garden and marquee setting. We had a number of French guests, and they were very impressed with his repertoire. Wonderful!"

"I’m only just getting around to saying our thank yous and I wanted to say a big one to you and the rest of the EM strings squad on the day! The music was wonderful - I’m only seeing snippets of it now on our guests’ videos from the ceremony and it sounds absolutely beautiful! Thank you for coping in the 34degree heat and putting on a beautiful show for our guests to enjoy. I hope you have a wonderful week and busy wedding season ahead and hopefully we get to meet at a wedding in the future again! "

"Jane played at my birthday celebration afternoon tea for 30-odd family and friends held at Browns in Bristol and made it very special for all of us. I gave her a free hand over what to play and she came up with two excellently performed sets in various different styles that pleased everyone. Many of my guests commented on how much they had enjoyed the music and I really loved having Jane with us - especially when it came to playing Happy Birthday!"
