Peter brought so much joy and beauty to our wedding
My husband and I were so lucky to have Peter perform at our wedding at Central Park. He was extremely easy to communicate with, super friendly and so much fun! He shared with me in advance a wide selection of songs he has performed at previous events and helped me find the perfect cello pieces (e.g. Bach) for our wedding. His music was amazing and it blended perfectly with the flow of the ceremony and the beautiful surroundings. We received numerous compliments from our guests about Peter's performance!! Thank you very much to Peter for making our wedding such a special memory for us and our guests!

Absolutely amazing, highly recommend!!
Picking Leah was the best decision I could have made when selecting a cellist for my surprise engagement! She was super easy to work with, flexible, insightful, and a highly talented cellist! She gave me advice on the different locations for the proposal, which would have great views and most likely not be too busy with people, as well as song recommendations. She was very easy to communicate with, was very clear, and on the day arrived early, coordinated with my family and was fully prepared for when the time came! I highly recommend her!
