I am a classically trained pianist and cellist located in the Cincinnati, OH area. With 10+ years of gig experience I can bring music to your wedding or special event, catered to your unique style.
I did not get to meet Megan, but I heard her, and her music was beautiful. She needs no prep. She made great suggestions, and I listened to everything. As the mother of the bride, this service was as wonderful as Megan's playing. High marks and highly recommended. Thank you again, Megan.
Megan played at a celebration of life gathering in honor of my mother, who was a lover of music. Megan accepted requests for specific songs that were my mom’s favorites and masterfully performed everything from hymns to show tunes while guests mingled and children danced in the background. Several people commented on how lovely the music was and that the event truly captured the spirit of my mom. Megan was gracious and professional - so thankful that she has chosen to share her gift of music and would highly recommend her for your event.
We had to book last minute and I was late to the wedding, but Megan was fantastic! Very professional and accommodating. The music was beautiful and everything went smoothly. Thanks so much!
Price Range: $75-$500
