Review Centre: Pianists (Jazz)

"Robbie played at our wedding in September 2023 and we have completely lost track of how many people have told us how amazing he was! Firstly, he was great to work with and learnt a few random songs we requested, nothing was too much trouble. On the day he worked with our coordinating team to position himself in the right place depending on where our guests were, which was tricky as some were outside, and he allowed us to use his kit for the speeches which was an added bonus! Lastly, and most importantly, the music was absolutely perfect, each song was played beautifully, the song choices were great and it really added to our day. We can wholeheartedly recommend Robbie for weddings or other events in the future."

"Jon provided one of the most memorable parts of our day and every guest commented on the quality of his performance. He arrived early and set up without hassle and played amazingly well throughout. Very highly recommended."

"Robbie recently performed throughout our wedding day and was absolutely incredible. From the very beginning, he offered support and advice during the planning process, helping to make everything feel seamless. On the day itself, he played several pieces by one of our favourite pianists, Yiruma, which made the occasion even more special and personal. We truly couldn’t recommend Robbie highly enough and are so glad he was part of our celebration — he’s a genuinely lovely person too. Thank you, Robbie!"

Thank you very much for your lovely words Will. It was an absolute pleasure to play for you - at one of my favourite venues in Crumplebury! Many congratulations and thank you so much for asking me to be part of your special day.

"We booked Grant for our wedding in London. He played all our requests whilst I waked down the isle and took more on the day from our guests. The Piano Shell looked stunning and well worth the little extra. He is Smart, polite & a wonderful Pianist. "

"Bridget is an explosive performer and truly unique in her ability to bring joy to an audience. In a time where the ironic indie performer has become as stale as classic rock radio programming Bridget is fresh and on the pulse of what audiences actually need."

"Matt delighted our wedding guests with his truly adaptable style; classic hymns during the service itself, iconic film soundtrack for the procession out of church - and a very helpful addition to any groom's speech; ten 1980s TV soundtracks seamlessly woven into improvisation whilst we awaited the arrival of the (very lovely) bride! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend."

"Sam was amazing in every way - he was accomodating with all song requests and played our ceremony and reception drinks beautifully! He was such a professional and entertaining performer. Even before we booked Sam, he accommodated every query I had - I including sending me a bespoke video of songs I wanted him to perform! Thank you so much Sam!"

"Book Piano Matt for your event ? From the outset, Matt was the friendliest, most helpful person to connect with. Having recently planned and celebrated his own wedding, he was immediately offering support and reassurance in so many areas beyond our expectation! Matt is so incredibly friendly, positive, and flexible, even helping us out with a last minute talk on Zoom on a Sunday evening when we got into a deadline panic. Then there's Matt's talent - the love that he has for his craft is huge, and the way that he understands music and the piano is astonishing. Matt offered to learn a custom setlist of classical piano interpretations of our song choices, which was the most incredible thing. Just a couple months before the wedding, we asked him how much notice he would need from us to send him the full list of songs we'd like, and whether we'd left it too late. His response was to shrug and say 'if a tune can be hummed, then it can be played on the piano - there's only so many chords'! I wish I could have that level of confidence and knowledge about anything in my life ? we sent him our (pretty mammoth) playlist, and he said he'd do what he could to work on them and get them perfect - and he really truly did. With Matt playing throughout our welcome, our ceremony, our drinks reception and our wedding breakfast, there was such a great amount of time for us to enjoy him soundtracking our day, and we would have loved to be able to just sit and listen to more of him!! Our guests, from grandparents to 3 year olds, all absolutely loved the magic that Matt created for us. There's been no end to the comments from everyone about how much they enjoyed Matt's music. From the moment guests began arriving, he was playing and creating a brilliant atmosphere. And not only was his performance itself fantastic, but his willingness to learn our custom playlist meant that our guests could guess and recognise piano renditions of songs referencing memories, TV shows, films and comedy - it was truly a highlight of our day! Thank you Matt, for *everything* you did for us in shaping our day, from learning a playlist of 60+ of our weird song choices, to recommending new music artists based on our tastes, and even by bringing along a microphone and PA for us to use for our speeches. We had such a joyful day, and you helped to build it for us. We're so grateful, thank you! "

"Christian and I just wish to say another massive thank you for playing at our wedding. Such beautiful music it's just a shame we couldn't listen for the full 2 hours whilst having photos taken. We'll make sure we hear you again at Elsie Mays! I hope you had a fabulous Christmas and wish you a very happy new year!"

"Sorry for the Late review. Glen played for the reception drinks and then afterwards for drinks and Canapes. He made the baby grand piano sound beautiful. Many guests commented on how accommodating he was with requests. A friendly and charming chap - highly recommended."
