  • Incredible Talent

    Nokturn is an incredible piano player and music director. I gave him a very difficult piece of new music to learn in a few days, which he had to play along with 8 actors singing and ad libbing and he pulled it off flawlessly. I would hire him again any time. And a very nice guy too, a pleasure to work with.

  • Like being at a concert

    Alex has a beautiful voice, and she really made our 50th birthday party special. She read the crowd, knew when to sing songs versus when to just play music. She is a super talent and a really nice person. Such a pleasure to work with. We hope to have another event again with her!

  • All around great

    Gillian joined our 8-person band for a community music event where she played piano on 17 songs across folk, soft rock, pop, country, R&B and Motown. She has terrific musicality and blended well with the other musicians and added skillful florishes strategically. She was on time and professional. She was very friendly and collegial and seemed like she had been with the the band for years though this was her first time with us. We look forward to working with her again.
