5/5 from 979 reviews

Gail Ford "We had the pleasure of having the wonderful Gail play the piano during our Wedding cocktail reception. Gail played absolutely beautifully and our guests mentioned that she was the perfect addition. Her repertoire of songs was endless and she was prepared to learn any song that we had requested. From the moment we booked Gail, she was polite, friendly and professional. We would definitely recommend Gail at your wedding or any event." Based in Saffron Walden, England (13 miles from Cambridge) Lauren and Laurence - Wedding Reception

Shirin Dhar "I have watched Shirin play on multiple occasions and each time I’m in such awe of her talent and dedication to music. What impresses me the most is her ability to play any tune as per requests regardless of having practiced it or not. I have watched Shirin play in work settings and private settings and her work ethic, energy and passion is unparalleled." Based in Hitchin, England (24 miles from Cambridge) Beverly Quadras

Max Thomson / TOMMO "We invited Max in for a small selection of piano pieces so we could see what his performances would be like. We were so impressed! The music filled the large reception area with delight, and the small audience were captivated. Max was a natural on the keys, he played with care and attention, and his personality shone through. The residents commented on his polite manner and his maturity for such a young age. Before Max left, he took the time to chat with the residents, and we discussed two future bookings before Christmas. One resident chose Max to play on her birthday. Snap this great entertainer up before he is fully booked - you won't be disappointed." Based in England (35 miles from Cambridge) 24th October 2026 Amanda - Astley View Care home
