Review Centre: Pianists (Classical)

"Thank you for playing so beautifully during our wedding breakfast at Colchester Town Hall on 27th August. You’re very talented and we got lots of compliments from various guests to pass onto you. It was really amazing that you learnt our piece with so little notice too, and made it all even more special."

"My event was a private engagement proposal at a venue which required discretion to keep everything a top secret. I discussed at length with Nigel beforehand what my requirements were and he sent a huge list of songs he could play from memory which really helped me select a playlist to ensure the evening was fun yet intimate! We had discussions of some songs which were fundamental to the evening, such as the entrance/proposal song itself and Nigel was so accommodating to my needs, even when I changed and added songs over the coming weeks from his repertoire. There were some songs not listed which I wanted adding but luckily Nigel admitted he also knew how to play them. The evening itself ran beautifully, Nigel blended well with the surroundings (not easy to mix roses with a Ferrari F40) but he managed it. Songs were played brilliantly, and he even slipped in a couple of extra songs to suit the mood. I’d recommend asking him to play The Interstellar Theme by Hans Zimmer :) Thanks Nigel, we had a great evening, and fortunately Chloe said YES! "

"Tom arrived on time, setup without fuss, and then provided us with two hours of wonderful piano playing. Our guests were delighted. He is polite, professional and gifted. The main highlight of our evening. Can't rate highly enough. Thanks Tom! "

"We hired Matt to play the ceremony music at our wedding and it was one of the best choices we ever made. Not only is Matt incredibly talented at what he does (nothing is too much trouble for him, he'll play anything you can think of without batting an eye), he's also just the kindest, loveliest guy you could hope to meet. Our ceremony was perfect thanks to him. Would 110% recommend."

"Nigel was amazing, he played as everyone arrived, my entrance and during the canapes and photographs - the music he played was perfect and really set the mood for our wedding. "

"Matt played for mine and my husband’s wedding in August 2025 and we cannot recommend him enough. Not only is his playing absolutely beautiful but he was extremely approachable to our guests and he fitted so well into our day. He is also fantastic at communicating and spent so much time with us before the event to plan every detail and ensure he captured exactly what we wanted - which he did. Matt, thank you for playing for our wedding, you played a huge role in our special day and we are beyond grateful to you. The personalised playlist you created was perfect for our Wedding, flowed seamlessly and helped capture mine and Simon’s love story and the music and songs that are important to us."

"Jon is a fantastic pianist and went out of his way to play the songs that we wanted. He was so helpful and nothing was ever too much. I sent quite a few emails leading up and he would always respond very quickly. He was very happy to play for us from the ceremony right the way through until after the wedding meal. Jon played a mixture of his songs during the wedding meal and canapés and the music we had chosen for our ceremony was just perfect."

"Amazing pianist and top bloke. Andrew played during our wedding ceremony and drinks reception... I was gutted to have to go for photos taken outside as could have listened to him all day. Truly professional and amazing pianist. Would recommend him for any event."

"Angelina was excellent and very professional. We hired her a week before our wedding, and she was able to provide us with a selection of music to choose from that was appropriate to our event. Her performance was excellent, with the musical arrangements being very 'idiomatic' for the harp. It really helped set the right tone for our drinks reception - thank you Angelina. "

"I'm a celebrant and I worked with Robbie on a recent wedding ceremony I was delivering at Thorpe Garden and he was fantastic! The most lovely guy and such a talented pianist! He played all of the music at the perfect moments and we worked together before the ceremony to do a quick sound check and cover our cues so it was seamless. I stayed for some of the drinks reception too and heard Robbie play Bare Necessities which was so much fun!! Thank you Robbie I hope we work together again soon!"

"Nigel performed during our wedding breakfast at the Holiday Inn Milton Keynes East. His music performance made a beautiful addition to our day and we received many compliments. A number of our guests recognised different songs and it made it very memorable. Prior to the day, Nigel kept in contact and was very professional asking us if we had any special requests and offering a comprehensive repertoire to suit many different tastes and showcase his talent. A very nice touch we thought was that although we had no special requests, Nigel himself noticed that our table plans were named after some of our favourite Disney films, and he took it upon himself last minute to play some of the well known songs from them. Again we had so many compliments and it was very thoughtful of him! We would have no hesitation in recommending him and really felt it made our day complete."

"I just wanted to say a very big THANK YOU from Marc and I. I welled up when I heard ‘the Power of Love’ as I was about to walk up the aisle. ‘Somebody’ to walk back down the aisle was just beautiful. Thank you. You made our day so special and we cannot thank you enough. Our friends and family loved all the tunes you played and you made my mums day by playing Tom O’Dell, grow old with me. Our wedding day wouldn’t have been so special had you not been there. It was simply wonderful. What a talent you have and such a lovely guy. THANK YOU"

"Laurence, thank you so much for playing at George's christening. Not only was your playing excellent but I also really appreciate your patience and adaptability given l didn't give you a huge amount of information beforehand - you certainly made the process very stress free for me and we will certainly use you again in the future should we need anything else playing in the church.
