Steve Kramer

Found Steve through Gig Salad and he made the night for our rehearsal dinner. He played non stop for two hours and he was just amazing. Can’t recommend him enough for your future event !!!

Steve did a great job playing for us on Christmas Eve! He is an incredible cello player and played multiple styles for us. He’s very professional and easy to work with.

Steve was Wonderful as always :)

Our Cellist, Mr. Kramer, was AMAZING! He was All that we wanted for our "GRAND OPENING" yet more! He came dressed for our Event. He engaged the people in his music, and He offered the sound and atmosphere of Europe, giving us the feeling that we are all united at the waters edge. Thank you Steve for a beautiful day! Sincerely the Bar Harbor Cheesecake Company, Venice, Florida.

Steve was once again very professional and played Brilliantly!!!!

Steve was absolutely Amazing. We had a beautiful Mother's Day Brunch and the room fell in love with him. He is extremely professional and plays like an Angel. I had so many wonderful compliments after his performance. We will for sure continue to ask for Steve to play his beautiful Cello melodies for us!!!!

Steve played at my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and it was one of the best wedding decisions I made! His communication leading up to my wedding was excellent, we had multiple phone calls to discuss details. He was open to any and all song requests I had. He recommended due to my song requests and the sound I was hoping for that he be accompanied by a violinist which he found and set it all up. I am very grateful he recommended this!
And most importantly, the music on our wedding day was amazing. Even with all the distractions and emotions of walking down the isle, one thing that stood out to me was the music. It was exactly what I hoped for and pictured! I will remember that moment forever!
Not only is Steve an amazing musician, he was professional and had a very positive attitude. Our cocktail hour ended up in a different spot than planned and Steve was more than willing to change plans spontaneously and even move his set up multiple times.
Thank you so much Steve for making my wedding day that much more personal and special!!

Steve is one of a kind! His playing and professionalism enhanced our worship service! He was so prepared, came early, stayed late, and even brought gifts!

I would recommend him for every event! Huge thanks to Steve again for his wonderful time and talents!

Steve Kramer is the ultimate professional! Thorough communication and even though it was short notice for our wedding, he showed up on time, dressed wonderful, and my guests LOVED his music!! It could not have been better. This was my first time using Gig Salad, and I will be referring everyone! Also will gladly refer Steve Kramer for any future events. BRAVA!! Magnifico!

Steve and his violinist were truly amazing! The music was elegant and beautifully mastered!
The Duo played all the acclaimed classics plus a few that just made your heart sing with joy!
They even played a rendition of the song from the sinking of the Titanic..."Nearer My God to Thee"

Kudos Steve and thank you for being available on such short notice!

Steve Kramer performed extremely well a large repertory of pieces that included Bach, Hawndel and Mozart, had a great attitude and was very kind with people. It was incredible for us to access such an outstanding artist at an affordable price.

The most impressive in the evening was the virtuosity of Steve Kramer. He transported emotions to the music and captivated the audience with his soulful playing.

Steve provides beautiful music during our cocktail hour. He is alway a pleasure to work with and our clients love him.

Steven Kramer has given many performances for the patrons of the Free Library of Philadelphia. It is always a wonderful experience for us here. He is incredibly talented, and we are so thankful he shares that with out organization.

Steve played a solo with the Providence chamber orchestra. His tone and interpretation was superb.

Steve Kramer is a passionate musician, whose love for music knows no bounds.

Steve is an amazing performer. We work with corporate clients all over the tri-state area and we always get amazing feedback from our clients when Steve performs. I would highly recommend him for any social or corporate event.

Steve did an amazing job as a recording artist for a session I booked for a commercial client.

We have had Steve perform for our senior residents many times, and each time he is attentive to the interests and needs of each group. He is extremely talented in his craft, and relates well to his audience, no matter the age or experience with classical music! A pleasure to work with, and one of those performers I love to regularly bring in.

First time I heard Steve Kramer playing was the public concert at the church of st Josef University. I was amazed by the unique incredibly deep and warm sound or his cello.
I was really honored when Steve suggest us to perform together. It was a rare happiness and a unique experience to perform together with such an incredible musician!
Many times since then Steve like a cellist and together with his chamber ensemble performed at my house and at the houses of my friends.
There were different events: the wedding party, the birthdays of my family members including kids party, the memorable days of our loved ones.
Every time Steve choose the perfectly matched repertoire and performed it with passion and dignity .
I highly recommend to invite Steve Kramer: you will enjoy the unique opportunity to have a world class musician at your house.

I was introduced to Steve by my piano teacher who found Steve's artistry, precision and interpretations to be of the highest professional level. As a result, we hosted a few chamber recitals with Steve as the featured musician. These concerts, in 2018 and 2019, were a rousing success - with another planned for this year, but unfortunately postponed due to the health climate at this time.
Steve's passion is palpable. Everyone has asked me when the next concert will take place. He is masterful in talent and delivery.

On March 17 2018 Steven Kramer was the musical performer. He did an amazing job playing for us. He performed the complete 5 Suites of the Bach Unaccompanied Cello Suites. His rhythmic steadiness combined with a very lush tone quality were inspirational to en to and he was the hitt of the party.

Steve has an amazing mastery of the cello with a diverse repertoire. I have hired Steve on several occasions as well as seen him perform at other venues and he always exceeds expectations. I would highly recommend Steve for any event that requires a cellist.

I have had the pleasure of collaborating with Steve Kramer a number of times. Through the synagogue where I am the music director, I have hired him to play for several years for our High Holiday services. Steve plays with passion and amazing musical artistry. The congregation was enraptured with our performance of Max Bruch's Kol Nidrei and I believe we heightened the spiritual aspect of the serious occasion with our music. Steve is a joy to collaborate with and is always professional in his dealings with me. He shows up on time and when he walks in, you know you're going to get his best game all the time. He brings out the best in my own playing.

Steve Kramer provided state of the art cello entertainment. I have hired Steve on several occasions: company party, Christmas Celebration and so on. True Story: My Mom passed in May 2020 and I shared that with Steve. He immediately texted me back asking for the details of the funeral. I thought he was just asking so he could attend but NO. He wanted to perform a small token of musical love at her service. It was most fitting for her and the occasion. I would have never thought of that but he did and he made it very special. I will never forget his kindness. He is always willing to play any venue, is very respectful and professional. Sometimes he performs alone and sometimes, he may have another musician perform with him. He is always punctual and dressed to impress! I would hire him for any event or any occasion. He is a pleasure to do business with. I can tell music is his first love... Enjoy!

Last year in October, Steve Kramer and I performed a chamber recital in Virginia near Washington DC. His performance was of a high quality, with sincere passion. The concert was well received by the audience.

Steve led a string quartet for us. People were amazed! He is very talented. On another occasion we had Steve play at a lunch and people really enjoyed!

As a rabbi I have recommended Steve to
my wedding couples. He is a talented cellist and a fine person.The couples found him charming and flexible in terms of music chosen. The guests enjoyed his performance and appreciated the high caliber he exhibited.
Be assured you are making the right decision to engage Steve to perform in any capacity. Rabbi sandra miller

Steve is an excellent musician! Extremely professional and charming. None of our requests were too much to ask. His playing helped to make our event even more special and was perfect for the day. Extremely talented and highly recommended!
Thank you again Steve!

Steve is a joy - gifted and personable. Having hired Steve for both concerts and church services, I received great feedback from those in attendance requesting his return - the ultimate good review. My repeatedly asking for his return speaks for itself.

Steven Kramer is a consummate artist and professional. He plays a wide selection of pieces from various genres. His music lent the perfect atmosphere for our event. Many guests requested his information during our event, in order to arrange for him to play for their own events. He is wonderful to work with and we will definitely hire him again and again.

It is rare to see such a probing musician also being such a crowd pleaser, but we get the best of both worlds in 'cellist Steve Kramer. He also attracts only the best co-operating musicians and singers. A piece of mine figured on a recent program, and I was grateful to him as a composer when the audience reacted so favorably. (I had always thought I needed to be in Europe to get treated like that!)

I have worked with Steve several times - he is professional, friendly, trustworthy and most of all a FANTASTIC musician! The artistry that he brings to his playing and performances is top notch - you will find no better! I have had Steve play for me at several events in PA and NJ.

The Danish cellist Steve Kramer has lived in the Philadelphia area for many years, and in that period he has performed in most of the concerts I have presented.
His performance of Max Bruch's "Kol Nidre," Op. 47 (1880), accompanied by pianist Ivetta Vatman, took place at Congregation Shaare Shamayim, a synagogue in northeast Philadelphia. Wearing a yarmulke (skull cap) when he was playing, Mr. Kramer gave heartfelt rendition of this Jewish music that was motivated by his ancestral roots. His technique and intonation were excellent and the audience listened with rapt attention.
Mr. Kramer is a very well trained cellist, and his performances over the years have been enthusiastically received by his listeners. He can be relied upon to give technically sound, well informed interpretations of not only the standard repertoire for cello but also unfamiliar gems as well.
