Response from Jordan Clawson:
Thank you so much, Margaret!
My son was looking for an accompanist for a critical performance assessment. Jordan took the sheet music, quickly was able to record the piece and even sent it in three different tempos. What an outstanding, professional job! We will 100% look to engage with Jordan the next time we either need an accompanist, or a musician for an event.
Thanks Jordan!
Response from Jordan Clawson:
Thank you so much for your kind review, Margaret! It was a pleasure working on the accompaniment music for your son. Hope he has a great performance!
Jordan played background music for my fathers casual memorial service. It was honestly the perfect touch. The songs were appropriate and kept the service feeling light but not overly so. I would recommend him to anyone. Thanks again Jordan everyone thought you did a great job.
Response from Jordan Clawson:
Thanks so much for your kind review, Dana, and thank you for having me play for your father’s memorial service. It was a wonderful tribute, and I was glad to be part of it. Take care!
I needed an accompanist to play a recital for my voice studio. There were nine performers each with two songs each. The styles ranged from music theatre, jazz, classical, opera, and even sacred. Jordan was a consummate professional and did a fantastic job performing with minimal rehearsal time. He has a keen ability to follow the soloist and adjust if/when a soloist made a mistake. He is a genuinely a nice guy with a great disposition and will do everything in his power to give the customer what they want. I would absolutely hire him again for my next gig.
Response from Jordan Clawson:
Thanks Kevin- it was a wonderful recital and I really enjoyed accompanying you and your students.
Jordan was the perfect addition to our engagement party. In addition to thorough communication prior to the event, Jordan arrived promptly and prepared. His performance throughout the evening was excellent! Guests loved him and he helped to create a wonderful atmosphere for the occasion. I would gladly hire him again, and highly recommend him!
Response from Jordan Clawson:
Thanks so much, Marnie! I loved performing at your engagement party. Best wishes, and happy new year!
My very large family has always loved piano players… my late father was a piano player… so it was a given that we’d have a piano player at our wedding reception. Jordan was a great find: he easily moved from standards to classics, playing with confidence and style; he impressed all our guests. Jeff & I were thrilled to have Jordan play—he helped to make the event perfect.
Jordan comes to rehearsal prepared and on time. He provides a clean and professional presentation. I will definitely use his services again.
Response from Jordan Clawson:
Thanks Lucas! Great working with you and your students. Looking forward to collaborating again soon!
