"Don't let his age fool you – Michael is a virtuoso when it comes to the violin. He possess the masterful balance of technical and emotive and is a gifted composer of evocative, deeply moving pieces. I had the pleasure of inviting Michael into my home to play a program for a string duet – violin and cello – and at another performance, where I listened to him pair his soulful violin with the voice of opera. He's communicative and professional, and is going places."

"We knew we wanted someone to sing at our mum's funeral as it was a church service with under 40 people attending. Through word of mouth, we were lucky to find Sarah. I reached out to her and she could not have been more lovely, professional and reassuring. At the worst time of our life we found her just so empathetic in a professional way and intuitive. She gladly liaised with the funeral director and the organist and gently took our worries away by suggesting what would be best. The organist wasn't great in my opinion and played a few dodgy notes but Sarah's singing did not falter. She was impeccable. Whilst we were sad, I felt Sarah honoured my mum with the most beautiful heartfelt transcendent voice...singing those hymns she was mesmerising and felt without her input and wonderful performance the service would not have been a tribute in the way that it was. Mum would have loved her, as did everyone. I don't give praise lightly but she was incredible and I connot praise her lovely personality, compassion and spellbinding voice enough. Thank you so much Sarah for helping us xxx (10 / 10)"

"Edu is an incredibly talented cellist. He was flexible in learning a few unique songs for our wedding ceremony and executed them perfectly. He is skilled, professional, punctual, and easy to work with. I highly recommend hiring him for any event!"

"Fay, currently on our honeymoon & not properly got round to messaging people yet. But my god. Where do we start?! You. Were. Insane. We cannot thank you enough. It was so nice to finally meet you on the day after all the months of emails and chatting. You are so friendly, approachable, kind and such a fun bundle of energy to have as part of our day - not to mention how insane you looked (which a number of guests commented on?) It would not have been the same without you! We were unsure if this was an added luxury we would could/couldn’t afford. When it comes to weddings it’s so easy to get carried away in the planning. But without a shadow of a doubt you were worth every Penny. An absolute class act. The memories you gave us and the fun you created are not something that can be replicated. Honestly, I could go on but I don’t have enough words. Thank you so much ❤️ We will be eternally grateful and forever trying to think of reasons why we need THE BEST saxophonist at an event. Xxx"

"I hired Michael for my 40th birthday. He was fantastic to deal with from start to finish. Guiding me through different music options and advising how the evening should flow to ensure the best night. Music was fantastic! My guests loved it. He was in the middle of the dance floor and got everyone up and dancing. Would highly recommend him!"

"I hired Guitar Elegance Recitals for my outdoor wedding, and it was nothing short of magical! The music transformed our ceremony into a fairy tale. Our guests were captivated by the beautiful melodies that perfectly complemented our vows. The atmosphere was serene and romantic, and many of our friends asked for the artist’s details for their upcoming events. If you're looking to elevate your special occasion, look no further! This performance was truly unforgettable. Thank you!"

"Michael was AMAZING!!! I booked him for my wedding ceremony and let me just say I couldn’t be more grateful for his presence there and his wonderful performance. He was extremely flexible with our timeline and kept guest entertained while they awaited the fashionably late bride. Having a violinist for my wedding has always been my dream and Michael made that dream come true!"

"Claudia was amazing. She is an extraordinarily talented guitarist, playing classical guitar. She was also a pleasure to deal with, communicative, reliable, friendly and amenable. She played Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring as I walked down the aisle and it was glorious. She agreed to learn a few songs we liked to add some Spanish guitar versions of pop songs for the reception (eg Love of My Life - by Queen), and they were beautiful. We would highly recommend her."

"I was lucky enough to connect with Will around Memorial Day and we begin practicing early on in June. I hadn’t played my tenor sax in exactly 15 years but wanted to surprise my now Wife with a little performance at our wedding on November 3rd. I told Will exactly what I had in mind for the wedding and told him how long it had been since I played and Will was 100% on board. We primarily did lessons once per week at his apartment and he was even nice enough to hold my instrument in his apartment to assist with the surprise. He helped me get back in the swing of things with scales and things like that in the beginning and then we began practicing the music I wanted to play at my wedding. Will was incredible and very supportive every step of the way. He ended up playing his baritone sax so that I would stand out more on my tenor. He got us our backing tracks and even did our last lesson with me at my venue the day before the event. We primarily did Thursday lessons at the same time but he was always flexible on a day/time when things came up. His communication was amazing. When it came time for the big day and the surprise to come to fruition, it couldn’t have gone any better. We did our set right after the completion of dinner and My wife, my family and friends were stunned beyond belief and loved every second of the performance. The energy in the room was amazing. A perfectly executed surprise all thanks to Will. Our hard work really paid off. Nobody will ever forget my wedding and Will was finally able to meet my Wife and some others after our set. Everybody loved him as much as I have since Memorial Day. I plan on staying in touch with him indefinitely despite my wedding performance being done with now. Will is an expert on the saxophone and other instruments as well. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone. Nobody better out there for whatever you may need. A+. Thanks so much Will!"

"I am soooooo pleased with Jim. From the first phone call discussing what I hoped to have for my 20 yr wedding anniversary party to the actual performance, he was super friendly and on top of things. I was full of excitement for his performance leading up to it and he did not disappoint. I initially watched his videos on his profile to get a sample. He played some specific songs I mentioned too. I had about 40 guests and they all raved about it. Some said they felt transported to some European event. And my dad started welcoming the guests by saying "have you been to the villa? Welcome" because it had that feel. Was a great vibe. Want him again!!"

"The combination of virtuosity and emotion in André's playing is rare to find. Every note that comes out of his guitar seems to carry feeling and history. He is a complete musician, with a vast repertoire and impeccable playing. I recommend him to any lover of live music!"

"I cannot say enough great things about Bruno! He played his violin and brought Filipa to accompany him on the cello. We had the wedding at Casa dos Penedos and Bruno and Filipa played as guests arrived, during parts of the ceremony and during the cocktail time. We are from the US, and Bruno was so easy to work with. He has a whole repertoire of music to choose from and will gladly help you choose the perfect music. He also offered to arrange a duet of music in case we had something special he didn’t already know. He ( and Filipa) are incredibly talented and added such a lovely ambience to the day. He is affordable, very professional and worth every penny. I highly recommend hiring Bruno for any occasion you want to be special!"

"Can’t recommend this lovely young lady enough. She arrived & set up in plenty of time and with no fuss Such a very talented musician who set the mood beautifully & most of our guests were very surprised at catching themselves humming along to popular songs they would never of thought could be performed on a harp. She did have to travel quite a way for our wedding and I’m so very grateful to her for it because she exceeded my expectations. Thank you again Scarlett you helped in making our day so special ?"
