Review Centre: Classical Soloists

"Tamilla is a true professional. She is very good at what she does and is able to play a good range of songs which she plays beautifully. She played for us during our church service and had a good sense of humour when she had to play my walking down the aisle song 4 times! We would highly recommend Tamilla, thank you so much!"

Katherine, thank you for such a glowing review, I enjoyed myself immensely that day. Including the waiting for you bit, your guests helped to make it more joyful that expected. Lots of happiness to you and Ashley.

"You really helped to set the mood of our ceremony and our wedding would have suffered without your musical talent to help make our dream a reality. I found your playing soothing as I waited nervously at the front and Emma’s entrance was breathtaking."

"Oscar and his colleague Will, were phenomenal!! I was amazed at their ability to nail “A Tu Lado” and agreed to play along while my husband serenaded me during our the reception. They played music from their repertoire but also included several songs from my Latin songs. Our guests enjoyed the violin and acoustic guitar pre-ceremony, aisle entrance/exit and throughout our drinks reception. We highly recommend Oscar for any event you may have; you and your guest will be delighted all day or night! Very talented and easy going. He was the only musician from a long list that I reached out that when I reached out for booking was able to say very certainly that he would be willing to play a ranchera song (A Tu Lado); he even suggested accompaniment with his colleague playing the acoustice guitar. They performed songs from their repertoire along with the list of songs we provided as well. He was reasonably priced and very professional."

"Jo was such a treat to work with in the lead up to our wedding and indeed on the day itself. She played beautifully and all our guests commented on how wonderful and emotive the ceremony was because of her playing. I thoroughly recommend and hope to have plenty of events in the future where I can invite Jo to play! "

"Kathleen, I'm so sorry it's taken this long to write a review. You were absolutely amazing singing single solo at my mum's funeral. Ave Maria was beautiful. My mum would have loved it and loved you. With the emotions of the day I never got to say thank you. So a belated massive thank you now. For anyone thinking of a solo singer I cannot recommend this beautiful lady enough. "

"Zoe played at my wedding and she was superb! She's an amazing harpist, her performance was hugely appreciated by ourselves and our guests. She made our day extra special. I can't recommend her highly enough. She's very professional, friendly, attentive, flexible and we are so happy we had the immense pleasure of having her play at our wedding. Thank you so very much Zoe! "

"During the evening there were two opportunities for everyone to enjoy the combined efforts of two young and accomplished musicians, Oscar Tabor (violin) and Marcus Forster (guitar). They constitute the group: Daphne Duo, and are available for hire for wedding receptions and other occasions as well as concert performances! They played several movements from Piazzzolla’s ‘L’Histoire du tango” and the Sonata Concertata of Paganini. With obvious skill and delight in the contribution they were making, they demonstrated a great talent for engaging the audience in the colourful music they played, and showed that violin and guitar can provide a very successful music-making pairing."

"Terrific musicianship: virtuosity, poignancy and fun. Full range of music offered and your wedding will definitely gain from the unique way in which your music will be played. It will be memorable in the best possible way! Thoroughly recommended. "

"Our residents were performed to by Kathleen Linton-Ford, a talented mezzo-soprano with a wonderfully varied repertoire and stunning voice. Our residents loved her performance and her friendly and relaxed manner put them all at ease. She sang several well-known opera arias and modern tunes. Our residents were visibly moved with many comments about her high quality voice and performance. We look forward to hosting Kathleen again throughout the year. A talent and performance not to be missed."
