"Denise is a wonderful musician and her jazz provided the perfect background atmosphere during the cocktail hour at my daughter's wedding reception. We didn't have access to a piano so she brought her own keyboard and equipment and got everything set up beautifully. She was also accommodating about the timing when the schedule shifted on our end. Highly recommend!" Arlen C., Princeton, NJ, August 2013

" Denise Bruckno entertained our guests during our recent wedding reception. She was fantastic! It was a pleasure communicating with her during the planning. She was organized, very professional and accommodating. Our guests truly enjoyed her playing. Our family members are quite musical and can be tough critics when it comes to other performers, but everyone raved over her musicality and pleasantness. We would highly recommend Denise-we are so glad we found her!". Patricia D., December, 2014.
