"Richard and I want to thank you for the beautiful music you played at our Wedding Breakfast. It was just perfect and we had so many guests comment on how 'wonderful the pianist was'. Thank you also for playing Mendlessons's Wedding March as we arrived it was such a nice touch and sparked off the occasion brilliantly. We will treasure that memory always. "

"Jon arrived punctually for our event and was smartly presented. Everyone was delighted with his playing which was fluid and varied. A number of special requests were made and Jon responded with enthusiasm. Nothing was too much trouble and, although Jon played for longer than we had booked, everyone would have stayed and listened to his playing all night if they had the opportunity. Jon has a light and sensitive style and is highly recommended."

"Des provided live solo piano entertainment at our home for my wife's 60th birthday. We had about 45 guests and we are lucky enough to have a large lounge with our own baby grand. Des started playing at about 3.30 in the afternoon and played and entertained our guests for 6 hours on and off with every style of music from classical to jazz. It was absolutely brilliant and we are very grateful to him for helping make the day complete. "

"We had a meet and Greet with Gareth at the wedding venue and booked him immediately after. The music he played on the piano was truly amazing during our ceremony and drinks reception. We had SO many compliments on Gareth and how the piano sounded in that venue and I cant thank him enough for playing. It really made our wedding different from all of the others and his skills are out of this world, he knew every song we had suggested for him to play and my entrance song '1000 years' by Christina Perry sounded INCREDIBLE! would recommend Gareth 10000000% for any occasion!

"I loved hearing you play at my Mum’s funeral last December. I was over the moon when I learned from the funeral director that you were free to play for the family. You really made that day special for me in the way you played ‘Morning has Broken’ just the way Rick Wakeman played it for Cat Stevens! This was my Mum’s favourite hymn and you did her proud! Thank you! Sue Hannah "

"Vikki, as we say in East Yorkshire, is a 'good 'un'. Apart from being a superb musician on both cello and electric piano, she is a very pleasant, professional person and made us feel very much at ease in the lead up to her performance. Vikki performed during what was probably the noisiest part of her event so full marks to her for playing in 'testing' circumstances, she received a standing ovation from her audience and this was richly deserved. I would not hesitate to recommend Vikki and she will certainly be very welcome back at Kilpin anytime."

"Grant came along to our marriage proposal at St. Pancras Station and gave a brilliant performance of our favourite songs in front of the hundreds of people passing through the station. Grant was really quick to communicate throughout the planning and arrived well in advance of our agreed time to ensure he had access to the piano. All in all, Grant added an unforgettable element to our day and we will be forever grateful. Thank you, Grant!"

"I can honestly say that our wedding of 14 people would not have been complete without Mark! He was wonderful, he has such a brilliant way of filling the entire space and connecting people with music. Mark was able to make the most of instruments that have not had much use nor care during the pandemic and produced the most wonderful sound with them. Mark made both the more classical organ pieces and contemporary piano songs sound amazing, making hairs stand on end with the power of the music. More importantly, Mark was truly a part of our party, interacting and making it more fun alongside everyone. Thank you! Thank you so much for being absolutely brilliant, could not recomend anyone more highly and will certainly be contacting again in the future."

"We asked Des to play the organ at our wedding on 2nd September at Cambray Baptist Church. From start to finish he was absolutely amazing and an utter professional. He didn't bat an eyelid when we asked him to play complex and unusual music and seemed to know all the old fashioned hymns we requested. When the bride was late it didn't phase him and he played continually for over 30 minutes. He mastered the Sound of Music Wedding Processional and the Can Can as well as lots of hymns. He turned up for the rehearsal and on the day was absolutely wonderful. He is extraordinarily talented and a wonderful unflappable musician. We thoroughly recommend Des - he will not let you down! "

"Having listened to his CDs it is difficult to describe the sheer joy of watching the man for real. His ability to create an atmosphere in keeping with the style of music, which ever genre he is "lost" in, is hard to match. His ability to provide magic for any age group and his versatile repertoire makes it difficult to find an adjective to describe him. A man who lives for music and has a burning desire to share it. Any occasion would benefit from his highly entertaining and sympathetic performance. Once seen you are a fan."

"Des came to our Volunteer Thank You Party in June. He made the process so easy from booking to arrival and set up. He was very accommodating to our needs and the atmosphere that we were trying to create. A very talented gentleman who played a variety of songs and instruments throughout our event. Would definitely use Des for our music again and recommend him to anybody! Thanks again Des!"
