"Für unsere Hochzeit in Luzern suchten wir einen Pianisten, der Eleganz und emotionale Tiefe vereint – und wir haben ihn gefunden. Vom ersten Moment an überzeugte er durch Seriosität, Engagement und große Aufmerksamkeit für unsere Wünsche. Er half uns bei der Auswahl der passenden Stücke und beriet uns mit viel Erfahrung und Stilgefühl. Die musikalische Begleitung während der Zeremonie war schlichtweg perfekt. Jeder Moment wurde einfühlsam unterstützt, wodurch eine feierliche und berührende Atmosphäre entstand. Auch während der Feier und beim Dinner beeindruckte er durch seine Vielseitigkeit und sein harmonisches Spiel. Sein Repertoire reichte von klassischer Musik über Jazz bis hin zu modernen Stücken, alles mit höchster Präzision und Eleganz. Unsere Gäste waren sehr beeindruckt und lobten die Qualität der Musik mehrfach. Wir sind dankbar für seine Professionalität und sein Talent und empfehlen ihn allen, die einen herausragenden Pianisten in der Schweiz suchen."

"We had Duo Sun perform at our corporate gala in Venice, and it was an unforgettable experience. The duo’s combination of violin and piano brought a level of sophistication and charm that perfectly matched the elegance of the event. From classical pieces to modern arrangements, they curated a program that flowed seamlessly and engaged our guests throughout the evening. Their professionalism was evident from the start: clear communication, punctual arrival, and careful attention to the venue’s setup and acoustics. Beyond that, their talent is simply remarkable. Every note was expressive, perfectly timed, and beautifully executed. Guests commented multiple times on how the live music elevated the event, making it feel more luxurious and memorable. Duo Sun is a rare duo that combines technical mastery with genuine artistry, and we would recommend them without hesitation for any private, corporate, or wedding event."

"The duo performed during our civil ceremony and aperitif, creating a wonderful atmosphere throughout. The violin was simply magical, and the piano accompaniment was flawless. They were punctual, professional, and very easy to work with. They made everything more emotional and engaging. We couldn’t have asked for better musicians."

"Je viens d'écouter ton enregistrement, bravo à toi et aux autres musiciens! C'est très agréable à écouter et pas si sombre que ça, comparé à Almost blue de Chet Baker, une des rares musiques que je connaisse vraiment de lui avec My funny Valentine. Cela m'a surtout fait replonger dans l'ambiance d'un très bon film noir de Louis Malle de la fin des années 50 à Paris " Ascenseur pour l'échaffaud", la BO est de Miles Davis"

"What Ferdie can do that nobody else does (to the extent that he does it) is sing his heart out, and then play his heart out-- his vocal and instrumental expressions are equally strong. It's not like he's trying to get a gig at the local Holiday Inn lounge, no!--he belongs in the concert hall!

They arrived well on time, were very friendly, and exceptionally good at what they do. The music created exactly the right atmosphere.

In short, a wonderful experience and absolutely recommended!”"

"We chose St. Moritz Pianist Lounge for our wedding after a long search because we wanted something truly elegant and different from the usual entertainment. From the very first contact, we immediately noticed a high level of professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine willingness to understand our vision. During the ceremony, the piano created an incredibly emotional and refined atmosphere. Each piece was performed with such sensitivity that it touched everyone without ever feeling overwhelming. It was one of those moments that stay with you forever, and several of our guests were visibly moved. At the reception, the music naturally evolved into a more sophisticated and relaxed style, perfectly matching the elegant setting. What impressed us the most was the ability to adapt in real time, always choosing the right music for each moment. Nothing felt forced—it all flowed effortlessly. We received countless compliments from our guests, many of whom asked for contact details during the event itself. The music truly made a difference and elevated the entire experience. An impeccable service in every sense: refined, professional, and of outstanding musical quality."

"Morganne a énormément aimé son cours avec vous, Gabriel. Elle a notamment apprécié que vous ayez pu l'aider à améliorer son jeu avec seulement quelques conseils. Elle a trouvé que les exercices de relaxation du poignet ainsi que les conseils pour utiliser davantage les bras l'ont beaucoup aidée à se détendre et à moins ressentir les tensions dans le poignet. Nous serons ravis de poursuivre notre collaboration avec vous dès votre retour d'Australie. Cordialement, Morganne et ses parents."

"He's a great tutor! Learning piano with him is fun and engaging. If you're looking for someone to be slow and carefully explain to you concepts, this is the person to go to. He spends a lot of time with articulation and how you shouldn't press on the keyboard, but engage your fingers -- something very important for pianists. I never knew that prior to having lessons with him, he's very impressive and clear with his instruction! Great tutor, you won't regret signing up with him!"

"We have had the Sparrow of Paris play a number of times in our performing programme that we deliver into Guy’s and St Thomas’ hospitals, playing for patients staff and visitors. They bring a charm and unique blend of music and song to our hospital audience and their sensitivity and friendliness is always welcome."
