Review Centre: Pianists (Classical)

"It's as hard to record a piano successfully as it is to play it - so firstly well done in selecting such an attractive range of music - so many favourites, all beautifully executed. But also bravo to your sound engineer and the Old Grannary people..... it's a true skill placing microphones in just perfect positions and balancing them so well: so as to create that lovely tone of yours that I have been enjoying so. Not too closely recorded (dry) nor too distantly either (wet). Perfect, undistorted tone. You must be very pleased and thankful - as we are, hearing this terrific recording of your piano playing. All captured here most successfully. Congratulations! "

"I would love to recommend Maryana as singer / musician for your venue/s. We chose Maryana for our pop/rock Live Music Wednesdays for our Wine Bar, Oak N4. From our very first e-mail to our ongoing collaboration, she has been very friendly, reliable, professional and responsive to our needs. We were looking for a musician who would attract a younger age group than our regular customers and bring something fresh to the table. Maryana was happy to fill in for other artists and was available when needed. We were touched with her expressive and emotional performance and her engagement with people. For that we decided to extend our collaboration for another month. It has been a great pleasure working with Maryana and as a venue we certainly recommend her. Please feel free to contact me if you need additional information."

"I booked a private room for a family meal at a local hotel to celebrate my father's 90th birthday. I contacted Sarah with a view to to playing background music during the evening. She was very helpful and we agreed a price for for a 2-hour slot. Sarah provided all her own equipment and helped enormously in making the evening such a memorable event. The background music was perfect and this contributed greatly to the atmosphere. The music provided such a relaxed back-drop, but importantly, we were all able converse during the dinner. In reality Sarah played for longer than the 2 hours we had agreed - real value for money - so therefore I would have no problems whatsoever in recommending her. Good luck and thank you Sarah. Regards, Ian."

"We had the absolute pleasure of having Nigel perform at our wedding at Rushton Hall on Easter Sunday. He truly made our special day unforgettable. From the moment he started playing, his talent and passion for music were evident, setting the perfect ambiance for our ceremony. Nigel was not only incredibly skilled but also highly professional and accommodating. He took the time to understand our musical preferences. Each piece was performed with such grace and emotion, adding a magical touch to our celebration. Our guests were full of compliments, many saying it was the best live piano performance they had heard at a wedding. The music flowed seamlessly throughout the event, creating a beautiful and romantic atmosphere that we will always cherish. We wholeheartedly recommend Nigel to anyone looking for a pianist who can bring that ‘something special’ to their event. Thank you, Nigel for being a part of our special day and for sharing your incredible talent with us! Kirsty & Dec x"

"We booked Tom to play at our wedding ceremony and he was absolutely brilliant. He learned a new piece for us to walk in to and played it beautifully. He was reliable and organised, turning up early and setting up without contacting us on the day (he probably realised we’d have enough to think about). We were so impressed and cannot thank him enough. He’s a total superstar, and we wholeheartedly recommend him! "

"Bradley played a great set at my husband David's 40th in Hertfordshire. His piano playing was superb. We especially loved the cabaret section where David's sister sang a song from Eurovision with Bradley at the piano. Superb atmosphere, thank you Bradley!"

"Nigel played for us when our guests were arriving at Huntsmill Farm. The weather was glorious and he was outside near the coffee van so our guest could have refreshments and listen to him play! He really added to the atmosphere of the day and set the scene for our wedding. "
