Review Centre: Accompanists

"Gareth was the organist at a civic service at which my brother and I were asked to play trumpet. He met with us, liased with the organisers, provided suitable music and accompanied us. He took the lead with a keen sense of humour, made it fun but was always focused consequently the music at the service received nothing but praise. Subsequently I have practiced a couple of concertos and other works with him accompanying. He quickly and accurately picked up the music. It was a rewarding and enjoyable experience and I look forward to continuing working with him."

"Thank you for playing so beautifully during our wedding breakfast at Colchester Town Hall on 27th August. You’re very talented and we got lots of compliments from various guests to pass onto you. It was really amazing that you learnt our piece with so little notice too, and made it all even more special."

"Conan was absolutely fantastic. He showed up on time and played all of our requests absolutely beautifully. When the birthday girl wanted an obscure Broadway song, he learned the song on the spot and granted her wish. He definitely added so much to make the night memorable, and we would definitely recommend him for any event!"

"Absolutely excellent. With minimum instructions did everything we wanted and more. Really lovely at the end how he marched off playing the pipes. Very poignant. Arrived everywhere he needed to be prepared and ready. Really couldn't have been better. The last thing you need is to be stressing at a funeral and to have someone know exactly what they are doing and when to do it was a god send. Was really lovely performance. My mum would have loved it."

"Andrew played at the drinks reception of our wedding at the Royal Courts of Justice this summer. We were very impressed with Andrew's performance. All of our guests commented on Andrew and were of the view that the music he played was in keeping with the venue and the theme of the wedding. Andrew was very accommodating when it came to the selection of songs and I was happy with all the samples he sent me. We were so pleased Andrew was able to perform at our wedding and would thoroughly recommend him for any event!"

"Thank you for organising the Jazz music for our wedding reception. You played exactly the music we wanted and created a wonderful atmosphere for the cocktails. My Dad was thrilled as the music was from his favourite era and he knew a lot of it. "

"We booked Sarah only a few weeks before our wedding, and i have to say she surpassed all our expectations. She learnt new songs especially for us, which is sang and played perfectly. She also has a huge repertoire so there is something there for everyone. So many of our guests asked after her, and said how fantastic they thought she was both as a singer and pianist. She was a fantastic late addition to our wedding, which made it extra special. Thank you Sarah, you helped make our perfect wedding day complete. Anne & Suren"

"Jamie was incredible from start to finish. He was so accommodating even when I completely changed my mind about the music, he was happy to learn our new choices (including AC/DC’s Thunderstruck on piano, which was no easy feat!). Jamie also learnt a song to accompany my friend in her singing which he did so beautifully and he played throughout our wedding day, creating such a lovely atmosphere, and even moved his setup twice so he could perform in different locations. Nothing was too much trouble. Communication was easy and faultless from start to finish. We’re so happy we chose Jamie; his music added something truly special to our day."
