Review Centre: Classical Pianists

"I booked Amy for my wedding to accompany a cellist we had already booked for our ceremony, it was last minute and we were extremely grateful that Amy was so flexible and able to help us. Her playing was beautiful and so glad we decided to add in a violinist. Communication was great and she arranged direct with Cellist to meet and rehearse the pieces so that everything ran perfectly on the day...she actually stayed longer than agreed and it was just lovely and so appreciated. Would definitely recommend, 5 stars!"

"We did our research prior to our wedding and Craig was a stand out talent. We are so glad we contacted him as he was so caring and attentive from the start. He was keen to get to know us and our hopes for the day, and accommodated our every request. On the day itself, Craig was punctual, professional and a wonderful musical accompaniment to both our Church service on the organ, and our Wedding Breakfast on the piano. We couldn't have asked or hoped for better and we are so grateful for everything Craig did for us. He is highly recommended!"

"Thanks for a thrilling performance, Gabriel. There is no doubt that your mastery of piano and keyboard is imminent. While I can barely play piano, I do listen as I did when I was last in Sydney. That you have come so far, with such a large repertoire of both classical and South American masterworks, is not presented in what is a grouping of informal music. May I commend you on the interesting variations of intonation that you are able to express. Your technique is enviable. I am unfortunately not an expert in critique. What may help you as you press on to a rating of 102 out of 95, are some observations. That the Kwai is good is undoubted, and even with the Beale that you played upstairs in Allans, before Allans closed, the Pitt Street store, compared against the longer Yamaha Grand that you also played, in any of these, the higher octaves can sound a bit thin against the richness of the lower and middle registers. There were moments in My Way, when I sensed the thinness of the upper octaves. I thought also that as you had to reach so far, you had in fact more time than you think, to add more tone and meaning. I thought that you were a bit rushed at that point of the performance. You have all the skill necessary. Just take a little more time, particularly on your first right hand move into the upper octaves, to let the jazz notes fall like a sprinkling of rain. They are short notes and to fit them into strict time with such a large move up the keyboard, seems for a moment to squeeze the time you think you have to execute several high notes. Elsewhere in the several performance pieces, you extract a richness also in the higher octave notes. Well done. That the piece New York has syncopation and time changes is challenging. Your performed well. I do seem to think that you may benefit by understanding or viewing performances of tap dancers dancing to the piece. It is a difficult idiom, and not one I used to adore. So if we have experienced the dance moves, we may then relate better to the changes. Still very good playing. I so much enjoyed your performances. "

"We booked David for my wife's birthday. Prior to the performance, communication with David was great! David's musical repertoire on the night, plus requested songs by us was fantastic. Although (due to Covid) this was one of David's smaller events, his performance added so much to the evening. If you are after a talented piano player for any occasion, we would not hesitate in recommending David. A brilliant evening & an absolute pleasure meeting you, Thank you. Look forward to you playing at our next event! Conrad & Heather"

"We hired Tom to play the piano at my daughters Christening party and would definately hire him again and have already recommended him to friends and family. Tom turned up on time and played beautifully. Everyone commented on how great he was and how nice it was to have live piano music at the party. Tom was friendly and a really nice guy and was also great talking with the kids and took some time to teach them some piano basics when he really didn’t have to. Highly recommend."
