"Robert really made our party swing, he played exactly what we had asked for, which was great. He has a lovely easy going personality. He arrived on time and set himself up with complete ease and no fuss. Our guests commented on how good his playing was. Would definitely recommend Robert and book him again."

"Sebastian directed a group of four singers and a trumpeter for my daughter's wedding, as well as playing the organ. He could not have delivered a better recital for the occasion, indeed his musical contribution was a real highlight for our 200 guests. He invited a group of first class musicians to join him and every thing was performed to the highest standard. Highlights were the bridal entry to the church to Trumpet Voluntary in D, by John Stanley and the finale procession to Wider's Toccata. The anthems were also wonderful, with a superb female vocalist taking the lead for Goodall's The Lord is my Shepherd and Mozart's Ave Verum Corpus. We cannot thank Sebastian enough for the part he played in a very special family day. He was a pleasure to work with and delivered the most perfect performance."

"After meeting Des at a wedding fayre we instantly fell in love with his music. When planning the music for our wedding day, Des was very professional, flexible and enthusiastic to play whichever songs we had chosen. Many of our guests commented on the lovely calm atmosphere at our wedding as a result of Des’ exemplary musical skills. Many thanks again. We would highly recommend Des!"

"Mark’s music wrapped our celebration dinner in a happy cocoon of elegance and joyful memories . When my Dad started singing along to his favourite old songs I knew Mark was a winner. His remarkable versatility made the evening so vibrant with achingly beautiful classical pieces and romantic ballads and playful jazz and movie music favourites. Mark is charming and friendly and fun. My advice to myself next time is split the budget between chef and musician. Live music ? ? makes your heart soar. Thankyou Mark - You lifted our dinner out of the ordinary. We can’t wait to invite you back again. "

"Mark, thank you so much for playing the organ and piano so beautifully at my Wedding Ceremony, I’ve never heard our organ sound so good. So many guests commented on how lovely the music sounded too. I also really appreciate the help that you gave my Dad before the ceremony, whilst rehearsing his songs, your accompaniment on the piano was just perfect! We really couldn’t of asked for a better organist, and would recommend you to anyone, thank you."

"We booked Rob and Mark for our wedding reception evening 'do' and are so happy with the decision we made! Rob guided us through their repertoire, was prompt in his replies and gave us suggestions as to what order songs were done in. The evening flowed perfectly and we've had so many positive comments from guests. Lovely touches, such as some word tweaking to make it so very personal. Rob, and his band, just got on with it and are clearly professionals. We'd recommend them to anyone, for any event. There's nothing like brilliant live music!"

"Gareth played at our wedding in Chiswick on 20th June 2015 and we can't praise him enough. We had a church service with two choirboys, Gareth went through the options with us all and worked with the boys to make them feel comfortable. Gareth not just an accomplished musician but a lovely guy to work with. We highly recommend him. Colm and Rebecca. "

"Mark played at my dad’s funeral in the church, and I honestly don’t have the words to express just how incredible he was. From the moment he arrived, early, of course, he took complete control of the music and ensured everything was perfect. As people entered the church, Mark played meaningful music that completely set the tone. It was elegant, thoughtful, and unlike anything I’ve ever experienced at a funeral. It made the atmosphere feel so personal and beautiful, exactly what my dad would have wanted. Later, Mark also played at the celebration of my dad’s life at a stunning manor hotel, and again, he brought everything together with his extraordinary talent and care. He played songs that my dad absolutely loved, weaving them into both the church service and the celebration in a way that was seamless and full of heart. Mark truly exudes talent, but it’s not just his skill, it’s his kindness, his sensitivity, and his ability to read the moment. The day was, of course, deeply emotional and sad, but thanks to Mark, it also felt warm, thoughtful, and full of love. He created something so special. People spoke about the music all day and into the evening, about how moving it was, and how incredibly gifted he is. There is nothing this man cannot do. From hymns to personal favourites, Mark made my dad’s funeral and celebration of life something he would have been truly touched by. I know he would have been overwhelmed to know that someone so talented played for him. Mark, thank you from the bottom of my heart—for your music, your presence, and for helping us honor my dad in the most beautiful way."

"Gareth played for both our wedding service at the Church and then the reception. He took so much time consulting with us about suitable hymns and entry and exit music. We really enjoyed the 'Ave Maria' and Pachelbel Canon during the registers and felt like royalty when we went out to he Widor Toccata !! How you managed then to shift gear and be playing all those jazz standards on the grand piano at the hotel amazed everyone. You are an inspired musician and a lovely guy - thank you. Marc n Jo"

"Sam played at my daughter’s wedding last week. His communication was excellent and he sent me hymn suggestions and always replied to texts and emails. He played wonderfully and was extremely accommodating to all requests. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Sam who is a very talented and experienced organist. "

"I would recommend Lester to anyone and everyone. As one of his first piano pupils I had lessons with Lester for nearly ten years, and if I was in the area I still would! Lester was both patient with me as a child and understanding of other commitments as a young adult. He is thorough, and owe my solid grounding in music theory to him (even if I did hate my theory homework at the time!) Lester taught me piano from grades 1 up to 8, and I always achieved high grades due to his preparation. I would also have great faith that he could teach me far beyond this level. He will drive you to be the best you can, always providing good honest feedback. I can’t rate Lester enough for opening the doors to a lifetime of enjoyment in music, he’s great!"
