"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Unforgettable Wedding Experience My wife and I are incredibly grateful to Mel for being such an important part of our wedding day. From the very beginning, he served as our wedding singer and choir member during our Nuptial Mass at Prince of Peace Catholic Church. His voice added so much beauty, reverence, and emotion to the ceremony. The music made every moment feel even more meaningful, and many of our guests told us how touching the Mass was. After the ceremony, Mel seamlessly transitioned to our wedding reception as our solo acoustic performer. He created the perfect atmosphere with a wonderful mix of romantic love songs, classic favorites, and upbeat music that everyone enjoyed. His professionalism, talent, and ability to connect with our guests made the reception feel warm, elegant, and truly unforgettable. One thing we appreciated most was how easy he was to work with throughout the planning process. He was reliable, organized, and genuinely cared about making our wedding special. If you’re looking for someone who can provide beautiful church music for your wedding ceremony and then continue the celebration with live acoustic entertainment at your reception, we highly recommend Mel. His versatility and passion for music made our wedding complete. Thank you, Mel, for helping create memories that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. — Mike & Grace, Newlyweds 💍❤️🎶"

"Michael is not only an incredible violinist, he went above and beyond by learning a song that we requested. As soon as he started playing it, both me and my dad burst into tears… My wedding was at a tricky venue and Michael went out of his way to get there and while I didn’t spend much time with him, he was the perfect addition to our special day. He is truly incredible at his craft and was highly professional. I would not hesitate to hire him in the future. "

"When my wife and I learned about a recital that Michael Shingo Crawford would be performing at the Laurel Hill Mansion in Philadelphia, I called to reserve seats. I had seen several of the videos of his performing and of his compositions, so I was eager to hear him in person. We were very impressed with his exciting, musical playing and were pleased with the varied selections on the program. The large room was filled with an enthusiastic audience, and it was obvious that everyone was enjoying his recital. I highly recommend him! "

"Parry & Rekha sang at our daughters Sanji. From the moment they started playing, they completely transformed the atmosphere—full of energy, talent, and pure professionalism. Their music was incredible, with the mesmerising bajaan at the start to the mix I’d modern and traditional garbas. The dance floor was never empty, and so many of our guests commented on how fantastic they were. Not only are they amazingly talented, but they were also so easy to work with—friendly, reliable, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They made the whole experience feel effortless and special. If you’re thinking about booking them—do it! They truly made our event unforgettable, and I would hire them again in a heartbeat."

"The Classucal Duo was invited several times to my house and two times to the house of my friends. We invited Michael Shingo Crawford and his partner to perform for my family and my friends on birthday’s parties, family reunions and engagements. The musicians not only provided the great repertoire of classical, romantic and modern music but were ready to play any popular songs and pieces “on demand” The most memorable performance of the duo was a surprise birthday 70-th anniversary of my friend that took place in my house. Together with the music of Bach, Handel, Schubert, Rachmaninov the musicians played for us the variety of old pop songs. That all made our event unforgettable!!! I highly recommend the Classical Duo for any kind of home events and celebrations!"

"5 star experience! I hired Michael to play solo violin to celebrate mine and my fiance's engagement! Not only was Michael a super talented musician, but also was beyond flexible, anticipated my wants/needs, and was super reliable and easy to get a hold of throughout the whole process. The engagement was a winner and in no uncertain terms did Michael add to the essence and wonder of the evening! Would book again in a second. Thanks Michael!!! "
