Review Centre: Specialist Musicians

"A wonderful performance on Saturday at our birthday event. A highly talented musician, having studied for two music degrees. Her performance of both Irish and other music on both Fiddle and Flute was superb and greatly appreciated by all at our large lunchtime event for over 100 guests within a marquee. My husband was thrilled to hear his Irish tunes on both the Fiddle and the Flute. She had had to travel quite some distance and was very obliging when I asked her to travel the evening before. Excellent, and a very good find."

"A rather belated thank you to Zita Silva , a lovely harpist who played at my 70th birthday party at the end of May. Zita was absolutely all round fantastic. We had spoken before hand about a the event , the venue and a playlist. On the evening she looked lovely, was extremely professional and quietly got on with the job in hand and above all played beautifully! We both received so many compliments from our friends about having a harpist and how unusual it was , but how very calming and beautiful, especially during the meal. Just perfect . You helped make it a very memorable occasion. Thank you also to Sarah -Jane"

"I first saw Chris performing in a bar in Altrincham and he was excellent, I loved all the songs he played and he has a real charisma with his audience. I booked him for family birthday party in our local pub and although he had 2 other gigs that day, he squeezed us in for an hour slot. His play list was perfect and everyone at the party commented on how much they enjoyed his choice of music. Even the little ones loved him too. We will definitely book him in the future and recommend him 100%. "

"Hey Rory. Hope you're doing well mate... Just wanted to give you a quick message just to say thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, so much, for yesterday... The performance you gave at our wedding ceremony was just absolutely amazing. The amount of people who came up to me and said "your saxophonist was just out of this world". Honestly, it was amazing. And we're so grateful that you did such a wonderful job... The fact that you could go on for so long / as long as you did... This is going to sound a bit weird but you have some amazing lungs. So, just wanted to give you a quick note here. I saw an e-mail from you. I will definitely write a review as well. But I just wanted to leave you this quick note to say thank you so much for your performance and you were just absolutely terrific. Well done again. You really made our day. So happy I hired you. I really am. And, who knows? If we ever do another ceremony in the future... I know one of my friends is interested in contacting you, that's for sure. But if I ever do anything and I need a saxophonist, you're right at the top of my list, for sure." "Thanks again for your great performance on Saturday as well as your wonderful comments on our wedding, too.
We are more than happy to leave a review for you especially after the joy you brought us and our guests on mine and Rachel’s special day:
What can we say about Rory, the music he provided throughout our wedding meal was quite simply outstanding! The ability he has not only with a saxophone but with a flute is amazing, he is supremely talented with these instruments and had our guests thoroughly entertained with his seamless performance. For over 2 hours he treated us all to a wonderful playlist of songs, we even joked that he must have the most incredible lungs to be able to go on for such a long time!
We also have to thank Rory for the patience he had in fulfilling our request to perform at our wedding, due to Covid we had to reschedule our wedding 2 times over the course of nearly 2 years since we first booked him so we’re so thankful that he never let us down. We would highly recommend Rory to anyone looking for someone to provide a musical performance at any event, from our experience he’ll provide you with a truly memorable experience that people will always talk about! Again we can’t thank you enough for helping to make our day everything we dreamed of, as we said any other event we do where we need music then we’ll be sure to contact you!
All the best,
Kel & Rachel Married October 2021 "We can only thank you because it was a big part of the wedding, and it was just beautiful how good you were in regards to the saxophone. We are so very, very happy. Hope you are happy, too. We will definitely keep you in mind if we do any other big event, for sure. You will be one of the first names we remember. That's for sure. Hopefully, our paths will cross again soon. Just want to wish you the greatest of luck in all your future endeavours."

"Jonny Kerry played the accordion for us at our wedding in November 2018. From the first point of contacting him and booking he was very professional and friendly. When you're organising a wedding you really appreciate bookings that are no-fuss and Jonny was definitely that. So many of our guests on the day gave compliments about Jonny's playing. He started playing when we left the ceremony room and it sounded fantastic. He played a mixture of genres but mostly French cafe style, mixed in with some old classics; it added to a great atmosphere. We would definitely recommend Jonny!"

"I hired jermaine to play for my boat party and boy did he play well. Everyone loved him he mingled brilliantly with the guests but was umintrusive. Jermaine played alongside the dj to a mixture of music eg house, bashment, rnb, garage etc and was even able to keep guests entertained when there was a technical hitch with the dj. Upon arrival he swayed the guests as they entered the boat with his music and dressed well for the occasion. I had a lovely evening and jermaine helped make it even more special. I would definitely recommend jermaine. Thank you so so so much Chan "
