Review Centre: Pianists (Classical)

"Nigel performed an amazing ensemble of songs at our wedding ceremony on his piano and went above and beyond to make it this the most incredibly beautiful day for us. He tailored the music perfectly to fit with the guests walking in and while the wedding procession was happening so it was seamless. His knowledge and ability to play on demand and by recollection is remarkable and he is an absolute professional. We cannot thank him enough for giving us a day we will never ever forget and recommend him of the highest regard. He even managed to learn a special song we had requested which only added to the emotions of the day. Nigel is the most kind-hearted of people and spends a lot of time getting to understand you as people and your wedding visions to make the whole process really personalised. Thank you so much! Mark & Maddy "

"We want to say a massive thank you for playing at our wedding. It was perfect, we loved the piano in the background to the day, it really added to the atmosphere. I loved hearing certain requested songs and the aisle song was beautiful, I can't wait to hear it again on the wedding video. Our guests were impressed with the wide range of music and how you could just perform the requested songs. We will certainly recommend you in the future to anyone looking for a pianist for an event and hopefully we can throw our own event in the future where you can perform again."

"Jon was fantastic, we had a Gatsby themed wedding and he was happy to oblige by playing pieces from the 1920s and 1930s. I would highly Jon to anyone."

" Robbie played at our wedding ceremony and reception. We were so lucky to have him there. His expertise shone through, as he played songs we had requested and others from his broad repertoire. Our guests commented on his proficiency and easy-going manner. We would absolutely recommend Robbie for your special event! (Nairn and Cheryl, Normanton Church and Castle View Farm and Stables, May 2024)"

"We contacted Laurence through this site to play during our ceremony at Stoke Park Pavilions. He was extremely helpful and accommodating, going out of his way to play the songs that we wanted and accompanying the Bride's Soprano Mother whilst she sang a song for us. We cannot recommend him enough and our only regret is not having the opportunity to say thank you after the ceremony (photographs etc etc). So thank you Laurence, many of our guests commented on your superb playing."

"Sarah played at our daughters wedding reception. She is a very talented pianist and it was a lovely addition to the day. We left the choice of songs up to her and she played a wonderful collection very suited to the occasion. I thoroughly recommend Sarah, her talent and music are exceptional."

"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 "

"Emma played at my Mum’s 60th Birthday Party. Her performance was amazing and brought the party alive! She happily took requests but knew exactly which songs were required to keep the dance floor filled! Emma provided a faultless service from booking to performance, I would highly recommend!"

"Sarah played for us at our wedding. We hadn't met before but I had heard a couple of her demo tracks online and I thought her voice was perfect for a church wedding, I was certainly not disappointed! All of our guests have commented on how beautiful the music was and I can't agree more. Having a professional singer to help the congregation out with the church hymns made the singing so uplifting which was exactly what I wanted for our wedding day. Sarah was more than happy to accommodate any requests that I made and even helped me to organise for a poem I recorded to be played in the church before I walked down the aisle. I had contacted a few musicians for quotes and was shocked at how expensive it could be but Sarah's quote was extremely reasonable and it was money so well spent! I can't thank Sarah enough for making our wedding ceremony so beautiful! "

"Having made an aerial video of the Cardston, Alberta Temple (Mormon temple), Alberta Canada I contacted Mark to see if he could compose and play a piece of music that would fit with the video. We were hoping to get something "inspiring" and "moving." What Mark produced was truly inspirational and we knew right away that his music was absolutely perfect and we thank Mark for his wonderful talent. Here is a link for you to enjoy https://vimeo.com/136541192 "

Thanks for your kind words Mike. I'm pleased that you are happy with the composition!

"I can’t recommend Nigel enough, his performance absolutely made the atmosphere at our beautiful woodland wedding in August. We first booked him in 2020 but of course had to rearrange. He was so accommodating about rearranging in all the uncertainty and his comms over the next two years were fantastic. He even created us our own set of songs so that we could enjoy at home on the date we were supposed to have been married. On the day, the music was just perfect, I will never forget the feeling of being about to walk into the ceremony, and I could hear the song he had learnt for us playing. Best money we spent. Thank you, Nigel!! "
