Judson Hurd was perfect for our event, a bridal luncheon. He played a wonderful mix of Impressionist classics, contemporary/pop pieces, and old favorites. I am certain he could play anything! He was sensitive to our sound issues and incredibly easy going and easy to work with. If I EVER need a pianist, he will be our choice. I cannot recommend him highly enough. 20 out of 10!
Thank you Judson!!! EVERYONE loved your playing!!!! So many compliments.
We hosted a formal surprise 90th birthday part for our mom. Judson was timely, friendly, professional and truly talented. We asked for “mood music” for this occasion. Judson’s selection were perfect for this event and helped set the tone we were looking for. If you’re looking for someone to create a formal, elegant and romantic setting for your evening please considering using Judson. We highly recommend him and would definitely hire him again.
We hosted a surprise 90th formal dinner party for our mom. Judson was timely, friendly and a true professional. We ask for “mood music” to accompany the dinner. Judson’s talent was evident. His musical selections were perfect to the occasion. We recommend him for elegant, formal, and romantic events. We would not hesitate hiring him again!
Judson is already a local superstar, but working with him was great! He was super communicative and understood what I needed for our ceremony. Definitely would hire again for future events. Thanks Judson!
I sub contracted Judson to play a classical piano accompaniment for a wedding my band was playing the reception. The wedding couple were going to play a violin duet and needed a classical pianist. Two days before the wedding, the groom called after having a zoom rehearsal with Judson. At that time they asked me to release him from the job and did not want him to play at the wedding as they were not satisfied with his rehearsal. The only comment I could get from the groom was that he felt "Judson was not prepared."
I am in an awkward situation as I don't know all the details and if the complaints are justified, but do know that my client was unhappy.
Judson played at my wedding and it was exactly what I pictured! He was so kind and easy to work with. So talented and professional!
we hired Judson for our work Christmas party! he was absolutely wonderful :)
Judson was great to work with from the start. He sent us a playlist that had music he played to see if we like it. We then met with him via Zoom to talk over the event. He worked really well with the couple. He was professional, and did exactly what the couple wanted. He played the music they wanted to play in the piano and even had a playlist through his computer for the very specific songs they wanted for their first dance. 10/10 would recommend Judson.
I particularly enjoyed the subtle version of Creep by Radiohead - who knew you could play that on a Jazz Keyboard lol
Judson did our wedding perfectly, very reliable and talented. The piano music was perfect. Thank you Judson!
Judson Hurd added so much to our HOA Xmas Party. Everybody thoroughly enjoyed his playing. Would not hesitate to hire him again. Thank you so much for adding the icing to the cake, you were great!
Judson played our wedding. He was super easy to work with and sounded great. Very flexible, and even went above and beyond changing locations throughout the day. I would definitely book him again!
I was slow to respond due to the insanity of a diy wedding but Judson came through and did a phenomenal job and was wonderful to work with!
Judson was absolutely wonderful at my wedding. He is very talented and very professional to work with. I was extremely pleased with his performance at my wedding. He also attended my rehearsal to ensure the day of would be perfect and it was.
Justin did an excellent job working with our limited information we provided him. Would recommend him and use him again.
I cannot imagine having a better pianist for my daughter's wedding. Not only did he play everything we asked him to on the piano, he made my new son-in-law's dream come true by playing the organ as the newly married couple did their recessional. Judson is super talented and very kind. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for the perfect pianist!!!!
Judson was great and very easy to work with. We gave lots of music for him to learn and he performed well.
Judson not only took the time to learn specific songs for our wedding ceremony, he added his own special flare to some of the songs! He was so kind and easy to work with. He was also beyond timely, professional, and prepared for our event. I would hire him again in a heartbeat and recommend that anyone looking for a pianist in the Savannah/Charleston areas to book him. He was amazing!
Judson Hurd did a great job! He played the piano for the Rehearsal Dinner and After Party. It added so much to both parties.
I was very pleased!
Judson was wonderful. He worked around our crazy schedule - above and beyond what was required . The music was beautiful and professionally performed.
Judson was great! Thanks so much for helping us with this. Will certainly keep this site in mind for future use. Much obliged for your time.
I had Judson play the piano in my home during a house-warming party. Prior to the event Judson was very communicative. He arrived early and was warmed up and ready to go at the scheduled time. Judson played throughout the entirety of the event. He is extremely talented and was a pleasure to have in our home. Our guests enjoyed the music as well. Thank you!
Judson did an outstanding job for us for our son's rehearsal dinner. He played the perfect playlist and at the perfect volume so our guests could mingle and talk. I would certainly recommend him for any function.
I was extremely satisfied with Judson's performance for my husband's 60th birthday party. The guests commented on how much they enjoyed the music. Judson kept in touch with me about my needs for the party. He arrived early and played for the entire length of time he was booked.

Judson Hurd grew up in the beautiful country of Paraguay, at an early age he was deeply influenced and mesmerized by this simple way of living. At the age four he stumbled across his mother's childhood piano. His first 'teacher' was an old instrumental piano cassette a missionary couple left after leaving the country. The expressive, folk, piano vibrations of Philip Aaberg (Judson's childhood idol) and the simple, romantic Latin culture had a creative impact on his music.
After years of being self taught and improvising smooth, cool grooves over Bach inventions his family moved to Ciudad Del Este where he began his formal studies at the Franz Schubert Conservatory. At the age of 12 Judson Hurd rose to be one of the prominent youth pianists of Paraguay. He went on to study music theory and composition at Young Harris College and the University of North Carolina at Greensboro School of Music.
Judson now resides in Wilmington, North Carolina where he is still moving audiences through his music. His music has reached over 2,000,000 views on YouTube. He writes music for radio, TV, including companies Android, Jaguar, Land Rover, the Oprah Show, PBS, recorded countless session work, and has performed alongside Five For Fighting, Gavin Degraw, Fighting Instinct, Todd Agnew, pianist David Nevue, and many others.
Judson Hurd has his own equipment if the event is outside or there is no piano. He will bring a full size digital professional sounding piano that is perfect and not overbearing for small and large occasions.
