David was a delight to work with. Very professional, a gifted artist and a delight to work with.
Thank you
David pulled up and showed out! Thank you so much again for making our moment so special.
David was very professional, attentive to our requests, prepared, on-time, well dressed, and friendly. I have never used this app before, or have booked a solo musician previous to David. However, this whole process turned out to be easy and very fluid. I appreciate that a lot. I would highly recommend David to anyone else. Thank you, David, for bringing such wonderful music to the funeral service.
He was such a pleasure to work with. He arrived on time, and he sounded lovely. He definitely added elegance to our celebration. His professionalism was highly appreciated. My mother was so pleased.
Very accommodating, nice and did well! Very pleased with david's violin playing and his ceremony work.
From beginning to end David was amazing. Flexible, courteous and gave extremely useful advice when it came to questions I had not thought of prior. We used David for a proposal and I couldn’t have picked a better musician than David. I didn’t have a song in mind and David picked out what will no doubt be our first dance song, just another compliment to how easy it was to work with David and the level of violinist he is.
Learned ethnic songs in short timeframe and performed them well. Arrived early, appropriately dressed, and played 4 songs.
Played over phone in advance to make sure we were comfortable w his work. Thanks and best wishes. Hire David!
David gave me a consultation call and put together brilliant day of details to make my event truly unique!! He is not only an incredibly talented violinist but his versatility as a musician is off the charts!! He made it a perfect night of elegance and move the crowd fun!! I would choose him again and again!!
David was both our officiant and our violinist this past weekend. We are so happy and pleased with everything we received from David. We have already recommended him to all our friends with up coming special days and would re hire David in a heartbeat. Thank you again for being part of our special day
Proposed to my girlfriend last month and initially was on the fence on whether to have a violinist or not, but long story short, I'm so glad I did! Having David perform at the proposal added such a beautiful touch that honestly blew everyone away. I asked that David perform 'A thousand Years', as well as a few other songs & they were all amazing. He was such a pleasure to work with, from the initial consultation to the proposal. I look forward to booking him again for the wedding. Thanks David!
David is the best violinist, he helped to me my proposal come true. David surprised to my girlfriend as he played her favorite songs. He was in on time with cold weather, his performance was great and my fiancée was very happy. I will recommend who wants professional violinist just hire David.
Thank you so much your performance.
David was an amazing violinist who was so accommodating, I would recommend him to anyone for any special event!
Did an amazing job of keeping up calm!!! music was lovely, wedding went very smooth.. thanks so much
This is to give a review for David Beytas who performed for our 100 Day Celebration for Baby Christopher Mann on July 17, 2022. The party was held at the Carriage Greens Country Club and David played for us for several hours.
David was PHENOMENAL and added a very classy and special touch to our occasion! He is very talented and accomplished and I would recommend him over and over again! Many people commented on his beautiful music and how it really transcended the celebration!
For anyone considering a violinist for their occasion, I would say HIRE DAVID BEYTAS!!!

David was early to our event and provided exactly what we were looking for! He was sure to accommodate all of our wants and needs pertaining to the ceremony such as music choice and doing the actual ceremony in our own unique way. He was overall a great warm personality in addition to our family only event. He even checked in with us before leaving to make sure anything we needed was attended to which my husband and I are very appreciative of! thank you!
He was on time and was very professional. Also, the music he played was excellent.
Very helpful with picking the melodies we wanted. Has a large assortment of music options. Great with assisting with organizing the music for what should play during each part of our wedding ceremony. He played wonderful & helped make our ceremony even more magical!
I am beyond happy with David's recent performance at a Memorial Tribute for my dear friend. First of all, David accepted the last-minute booking, and agreed to drive 90-miles (during rush hour) for a one-hour event.
In addition to this, his performance was perfect! My guests commented on what a nice touch the violinist added to the service. I would hire David again, without question.
David is the best! He is Awesome! Not only did he accept my last-minute booking, but he also was able to get to me after he already had an event earlier. He made my wife the happiest on her birthday!! I will be booking him again!! I am SO HAPPY that I booked him!!!
I requested for a violinist a couple of days before my grandpa’s funeral and David was the only one who replied right away. Even though he is based in Illinois he was willing to travel and fit us in to his already booked day. He was easy to work with and delivered a beautiful performance of “Amazing Grace.” It was a beautiful moment for our family as we were grieving the loss of our loved one.
I planned wedding in 2 days on the beach. David immediately responded to me. Communicated with me exactly what we wanted in our vows. He's a nice young heartfelt person. Like he knew what we wanted. I would definitely recommend him to marry anyone. And he also played violin before and after he married us! Who could ask for more? Everything was perfect that day. Thank you again David you are the best and made our day so special!♡
David was extremely wonderful! We had a great experience with him. We enjoyed the music he played - everything was wonderful. We will book him again!
Awesome and went over and above
Super communicative weeks and days leading up to the wedding, made sure to have the host approve the playlist, and get all the details just right
-Originally booked for reception only. Agreed to also play the ceremony at last minute
- Ceremony and reception both started over an hour late, he improvised music with the pianist the whole time to keep the guests entertained/distracted from the dress situation
-Dressed professionally, arrived early, coordinated music with pianist and DJ to make sure everything would run smoothly.
-Played classical, hip-hop, and improv styles!!
-Helped put the big day into ACTION!
We had a unique wedding ceremony venue & David was very accommodating. He was a great surprise for my new bride.
David traveled 2 hours to play 2 songs for me! He made my dream come true by playing cannon d for my entrance song. My guests even thought he did a really great job!
David was incredible. We booked him for a bachelor party of all things and he played during our cocktail hour, really elevating the experience and making for a great time. Very easy to communicate with and schedule, and he went out of his way to play the songs we requested in our booking. Would highly recommend David for any event!
David communicated with us throughout the whole process, he came early, played incredibly, and was very professional! He went out of the way to find and play our daughter's favorite pieces.
His response time, flexibility, and the music he played we’re all fantastic. I was planning an outdoor proposal, and the weather went bad. I moved the venue on him at the last second, and he took it in stride. I highly recommend him.
David was super accommodating and professional. I am 100% satisfied. Thanks David!
David was fantastic in every way, from being flexible with our postponement due to COVID and of course the beautiful music he made with the violin. I got so many compliments from guests on his performance and was even asked to share his contact information! 110% worth it. Thank you so much, David!
Great service and very reliable!
So talented
Thank you for your service
I asked David to play some songs for my sister for her birthday. He was so kind to accommodate the request even on a short notice.
He came on time even though he got some car trouble. Thanks for Ubber! You ace all the songs David! You made my sister happy!
We will hire David in the future!

We had an easy and smooth time having David play at our themed birthday party. He was communicative, responsive, and flexible. He also arrived on time and had no problem implementing our requests. He was very professional and is a gifted performer. I would definitely hire David again. He brought a unique touch of class to our party that our guests appreciated. He mixed classical and contemporary styles and played at a nice volume. I have zero complaints.
He did a memorial mass for my Dad. He was wonderful!
We had David play at our wedding and he was amazing. Very professional, good communication through out the process and a great violinist. I would recommend him.
I hired David for my Birthday party. It was an absolutely enchanting experience. He communicated ongoing before the event. Got my song list, worked with me to have a beautiful song list. He showed up on time and played the most incredible violin music. So many guests commented on how beautiful it was and how talented he was. He also has a great sense of humor and was fun to work with. Thanks David!! Will definitely use your services again and recommend.
Would use again! very talented and very professional
David came in to do some recordings for a violin app we were building. He came on time, with enthusiasm and played beautifully. Great guy to work with and easy going
David was the violinist for our wedding in September. He communicated well and played the song I requested for the processional beautifully. Thank you David.
So David came to play for a pretty challenging audience. He was very interested in finding out exactly what we were looking for, and went out of his way to get music out of his usual repertoire to fit the event. I told him we were doing a summer camp in December theme and needed a lot of pop tunes (which wasn't on the original order) and he procured some popular music scores for the gig. Very kind guy who is easy to work with.
Music for Any Occassion (aka, David), was just right for our occassion - a family funeral and reception afterward. He was punctual, professional, and handled the whole thing perfectly. Thank you, David.
David played for us at luxury brokers open downtown. It was an indoor event for 2 1/2 hrs. He is a skilled muscian and a pleasure to work with! He arrived on time and ready to go! Don't miss out on this talent! Thank you so much for all your help!
David did an amazing job playing for my marriage proposal. He gave me a reasonable quote and went above and beyond the expected! He was able to play the exact song I wanted, which by the way sounded perfect. He was also very flexible with everything and was able to work around my needs for my engagement to work out great. He was on time and did an a awesome job! Personally I would recommend him to anyone.
Thank you Music for any occasion for being so accommodating! They were willing to practice with me ahead of time because I had a custom project. And they sounded great!
