"We chose this piano and cello duo for our wedding, and it was honestly one of the most memorable elements of the entire day. From the very beginning, they showed a level of professionalism and care that immediately put us at ease. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but working with them felt simple and well-organized. What really stood out was how much attention they gave to understanding our vision. We didn’t just want background music—we wanted something emotional, elegant, and capable of enhancing the most important moments of the ceremony. They guided us through the choice of pieces, offering suggestions that were both refined and perfectly suited to our style. On the day of the wedding, everything was flawless. They arrived early, set up discreetly, and created an atmosphere that was simply magical. The combination of piano and cello is incredibly powerful—the piano provides structure and harmony, while the cello adds warmth and depth. During the ceremony, the music was so moving that several guests told us they had goosebumps. The transition into the reception was equally perfect. The duo adapted effortlessly, shifting to a lighter and more relaxed repertoire while maintaining the same level of elegance. It never felt intrusive, but it always added something special to the atmosphere. Many guests came up to us asking who they were, which says a lot about the impact they had. It felt like having a live soundtrack tailored specifically for our day. We highly recommend this duo to anyone planning a wedding or event. They truly bring something unique and unforgettable."

"We booked this musician for both the ceremony and reception of our wedding in Canton Ticino, and the experience was exceptional from beginning to end. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but the music was one aspect we never had to worry about. We received excellent guidance when choosing the repertoire. Every suggestion was carefully explained, and we felt supported in making decisions that reflected our personal taste while also fitting the context of the ceremony. The result was a beautifully curated musical program. During the ceremony, the organ music created a truly magical atmosphere. The acoustics of the church were enhanced by the quality of the performance, and every note felt intentional and expressive. It added a level of emotion that made the entire experience even more meaningful. At the reception, the piano performance was equally impressive. The music was refined and perfectly suited to each moment of the evening, from the aperitif to the later stages of the celebration. It created a warm and inviting environment that our guests genuinely appreciated. We received countless compliments, and many people asked us who the musician was. We are extremely grateful and would not hesitate to recommend this service to anyone planning an event in Bellinzona or anywhere in Canton Ticino."

"Our experience through booking with Encore has been so smooth and easy. However Abigail made this booking even more perfect and made the process before the wedding stress free and easy. Abigail communicated with us superbly and granted every wish we had for our wedding ceremony. No song was too much and never made us feel like we were asking for too much. Would not think twice about booking Abigail as she was professional, kind and above all else a great violinist. Thank you again Abigail!"

"On a sunny day in July we had the wedding of our dreams in the garden of our family home. The day was made even more magical by the sublime music, played with unobtrusive charm by Kieran. His guitar playing was wonderful. As one guest said, “I didn’t even get to the entry of the bride, I started crying for the beauty of the music!” We will always be grateful that he was a part of our day and he will probably never know what an important part he played.
