Thank you Brittany, I appreciate your feedback very much! The celebration was so enjoyable and I really had a great time providing the music for it. Such a fun and beautiful afternoon.
We had a wonderful event thanks to our lovely pianist. She was a great addition to our brunch. It was great to have her playing in the background, yet not too overpowering. Looking forward to having her back again :)

Thanks very much Daniel, I certainly enjoyed providing the music for your special evening. Hope you had a safe trip back and congratulations once again!
In a unexpected turn of events, my wife and I found ourselves without a musician for our wedding! We had one week to go when we started our search and found Adriana. From the beginning, Adriana was responsive, collected, and ready! Adriana took what was shaping up to be a disaster, put her experience to work, provided what seemed like effortless wedding music, and helped us enjoy our day. We wish we would have found her sooner!
Response from A.r.T of the Piano:

Hi Adrianne, thank you for the excellent review. It was an absolute pleasure to play for your reception; such a beautiful event and venue. All the best!
We had a gathering of about 12 ladies for a birthday celebration at my home and Adriana played for an hour. I asked for pop music from the 70s and 80s and she delivered. She played nostalgic songs we could hum to and it made for a great time. Adriana communicated with me before the party about my expectations and she could not have been more professional through the entire process. Wouldn't hesitate to hire her again.
Adriana was great!!! She provided the best ambiance for our party, and the guests uniformly commented on how wonderful the music was. Four thumbs up!!!!
