Susana was wonderful! She played the cello at our wedding and I couldn’t be more grateful. Before the big day Susana prepared music to share with the pianist at the church. She was always quick to respond to our messages regarding the event and very professional. Thank you, Susana!
Very good performers, truly professional. Thanks!
Susanna and Stein were amazing. Very professional, punctual and gifted. Their music elevated our Gala and I would recommend them for your event. Thank you, Susanna!
Easy to work with, keep in touch with me 2 weeks prior to my wedding.........and the music was wonderful!
My wife and I had Susanna play at our wedding ceremony and reception for cocktail hour. She was so easy to work with from beginning to end (considering we had to postpone our wedding several times). Susanna's music elevated our wedding to a whole other level. She played with the church's pianist and worked directly with the church's music director. Susanna played classical and modern pieces which really created a beautiful ambiance. She provided us with a list of songs for us to choose from. I highly recommend this talented cellist!
Susanna and Moses did such a beautiful job at my wedding recently! Moses accompanied Susanna’s cello playing with classical guitar. The duo played together wonderfully. They are both fantastically talented and can play almost any song you request. I got so many compliments on the music. Susanna is sure to clarify any requests you may have before the big day. She is professional and just a very sweet person. I highly recommend Susanna for your next event!
What a perfect pairing of Susanna on cello, and Moses on acoustic guitar. Susanna was excellent in her communication before the event. They arrived punctually as promised, and played an eclectic set of beautiful background music for our small anniversary party. They were clearly enjoying themselves, and it made them even more fun to watch. To top things off, they learned our friends’ favorite song and arranged it beautifully with an impressive guitar solo over the top. It brought our guests of honor to tears. They truly made our night. They were excellent and we will certainly be using them again! Thank you!!
