Review Centre: Composers / Arrangers / MDs

"There’s something quite touching about watching a middle aged Oliver Hardy type man acting out eccentric tales from great composers and from his own musical life. As well as collating these two sentiments, Daltry also manages to squeeze in sketches a la Mr Bean and BBC commentators as well as pasting in his own comical composition. No one gets off lightly, least of all Daltry himself. One is beset by uncertainty as to whether his lounge bar personality surrenders to the dejected genius type like many bygone composers, or if he is just acting. Either way, Daltry delivers quirkiness in buckets. After getting over his histrionics, there is impish warmth to the show that packs a punch with great variety and bizarre humour."

"Nigel performed at our wedding on Sunday, and we are so pleased we chose him as our pianist. He is so talented and made our day extra special by being a part of it. He played for our ceremony and the drinks reception. While walking down the aisle I could hear Nigel playing and it gave me goosebumps, his performance was so beautiful and made many of our guests emotional. Aside from Nigel’s incredible talent as a pianist, he made the booking process very easy, always responded to our queries quickly, and is just a lovely person to be around. We will always remember Nigel performing on our special day and cannot recommend him enough. Thank you again!"

"Your choice of music was, to my mind, perfect and you caught a lovely balance between the reflective and the uplifting. Those who attended commented on how lovely and appropriate the music was, and how important it is to have live music at this sort of remembrance service."

"Nigel’s playing was perfection personified! He played for the arrival of the guests and all through the wedding breakfast only taking a short break during the speeches. He even continued after the agreed time as everyone was enjoying his playing so much and it really lifted the occasion. His choice of music and playing styles fit the mood of the afternoon so well and we had lots of positive feedback from our guests. You rarely hear people applaud “back ground” music but this happened almost after every song played. He added a real sense of sophistication and substance to our wedding. It was present but not overbearing. We will be booking him again in the future and wholeheartedly recommend his services. "

"Another great evening in the pavilion. The feedback from villagers who had not seen him before was 100% positive. They could not believe that it was only him and not a full band they were listening to, which is what you get. His performances never fail to entertain and get people dancing and singing along. I will be booking him again next year."

"The Masked Violin was amazing! His sweet melodies serenaded all our guests from arrival until our DJ/ live music arrived. Everyone loved his music, and have been speaking of it ever since. He was truly incredible. He was so kind, he even pre-learned the songs to play for our ceremony: one was a normal wedding song, the other a punk song, which he played so well it helped make our day perfect. Afterwards he played a variety of well executed music, all sorts of genres, along with his mask and mysterious demeanor our guests were all dazzled and mesmerized. Our guests were taking about how amazing he was for days afterwards (we had a multi-day wedding), we do regret not hiring him for more days as he was fantastic. He was an absolute pleasure and we highly recommend him to everyone, for any kind of event. Honestly we can not praise him enough. If you are thinking about music at your event, he brings a magic that others can't: definitely book with him 💯."

"Lisa did the music in the church for our wedding. I gave her a list of songs I wanted, some of them she didn't know but was willing to learn for our big day. She was very helpful at filling in the bits I had neglected and selected some beautiful pieces of music. Although the day is a bit of a blur to me, everyone still comments on how amazing the music was. She also sang our first dance with the band which was very special. I think the band would have kept her all night! I'd highly recommend her. "
