"Violet is a great musician. She plays music truly from hearts. She is a good pianist with deep understanding on different genres, ranging from the Baroque period to the 20th century repertoire. Her Piano Recital on January 2023 was a great success. She played Domenico Scarlatti’s Sonata, Frédéric Chopin Polonaise and Claude Debussy’s Prelude with her own interpretation and thought. She is also a good trumpet player. She loves making music with others. She had joined different wind bands and orchestras. Besides, she had covered two famous pop songs ‘Fly Me to the Moon’ and ‘Wave’ in style. She sang and played trumpet in the cover which was very impressive. She is also a good piano and trumpet teacher. Her students range from 3 years old to 70 years old. She has patience and able to teach in line with the student’s ability. Her students mostly get a good result on different competitions and the ABRSM music examinations."

"We booked Laura for our special day and she was absolutely wonderful. Laura was very punctual, very professional with a friendly touch. We made a request for Laura to play a specific song and she rehearsed and learnt it within a day or two and sent us an example. Our guests loved her playing the piano and it gave that special touch we wanted to the day. We would definitely recommend Laura she was an absolute pleasure to have at the wedding. Thank you!!!!! "

"I have asked Ben to help out on several occasions when organising high level events for a variety of clients. These have ranged from the Champagne Academy, the annual banquet for the Reunion de Gastronomes at Ironmongers' Hall, the annual dinner for the Confrerie du Sabre d'Or, and even cabaret performances at Jermyn Street Theatre. Ben is very versatile, will play all music types, and is a true professional, arriving early, responding to communication and always looking the part."

"I really wanted to thank you so much, your playing was amazing and I honestly found myself just sat getting lost in the music throughout the day. It was perfect for setting the different moods needed throughout the day. I will be honest with you we spent a long time deciding whether or not live music was required and I can definitely say it was and it was one of my favourite parts of the day ( other then getting married I suppose 😁). Thank you again it was perfect. "

"Mark played at our wedding reception at the Belvedere Restaurant in Holland Park on Saturday 21st June. He provided the guests with a great repertoire of music, played at the right speed and sound. A perfect accompaniment to the evening. Not only did he play a list of songs that we requested but also intermingled these with other complimentary tunes. We would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone looking for a wedding musician."

"Thanks again for playing at the wedding. The music was really fantastic and really made the wedding breakfast extra special."

"The concert closed with After Ives (1993) which ends with an outrageously rambunctious and “perverse homage” to J P Sousa, whom Ives apparently detested, quoting his famous The Stars and Stripes Forever on the piano with Chopinesque melodic interjections and Lisztian extravagance, all masterfully and very wittily handled by Lewis Kingsley Peart."

"Thank you very much for entertaining us so well at my wife’s birthday tea at Lysses House last Saturday. A number of my guests remarked that they enjoyed your playing which was not so loud as to prevent conversation but loud enough to be heard. Well done. "

"Stephen was first class, arrived early and stayed as late as he could given he had another gig across the country that evening. My Nan loved him and still talks about the music at her birthday. Stephen made the effort to learn a couple of her favourite tunes and was just brilliant on the day. 5*"

"Mark was nothing short of exceptional!! He played on our wedding day during our religious ceremony as I walked down the aisle and during the entire wedding breakfast reception and for our first dance. Mark has a large, impressive and varied repertoire. He is very talented musically,dedicated, polite, reliable, hard working, calm, responsive and kind. He played beautifully and many of our guests commented on this. We could see our guests dancing to the music and smiling. Mark was able to improvise fast when we had a last minute change to the order of the day. He took the initiative and played the venue’s piano when our first dance setting changed alleviating a potentially stressful situation. Mark kept us entertained throughout the entire day. Mark really did go the extra mile, kindly learning various piano pieces and sending us clips. Mark made the effort to learn many of these songs from scratch which were not mainstream (including a mix of western, french and Pakistani music representing our cultures) and even sent us clips so that we could practice our first dance. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Mark for any event. I am sure he would make any event golden. Thank you Mark ? From Maria and Clément Married 9th October Reading "

"Sarah played the piano beautifully for our wedding drinks reception. With a variety of songs played we were really pleased we made the decision to ask Sarah to join in on our special day. We would recommend to friends and family anytime. "
