100% recommend.
When I originally booked my wedding at the Webbington Hotel I was sure I didn’t want the piano to be played. However, after attending their wedding Fayre, I walked in and heard his playing the Piano, which happened to be one of my favourite Disney songs being played. It bought me to tears, and I knew in that moment it was a must have. We Booked him around 18 months prior to the wedding and communication was brilliant. He was happy to answer any questions and queries prior to the day and gave us opportunity to choose what we wanted for the ceremony and the music played before. All my guests were complimentary of him, and many of them cried some happy tears to the music being played. He really helped to set the scene for our wedding, and it was a beautiful touch to our day.

He could not have been easier to work with. He always responded immediately and when I was having some email issues we switched to communicating by text to make sure no details were missed. He learned some of our favourite songs for our ceremony and was so professional and flexible when it looked like it might rain for our outdoor ceremony… it didn’t thank goodness! We moved the drinks reception indoors where he switched to playing on the venues grand piano and the family gathered around for a sing song. It was a brilliant part of our day and I’d recommend him to anyone!

We hired Him as a pianist during our wedding ceremony, it was incredible listening to him and made the whole thing so special and memorable, our guests absolutely loved it as well. In the build up he was professional and really put us both at ease, we couldn't recommend him enough.

He is a wonderful pianist and played some beautiful music of our choice on our wedding day (31/08/2024). he was very professional and was easy to communicate with, double checking everything. He made our wedding ceremony very special and we would highly recommend him for any upcoming weddings.

Words can’t describe how amazing he was from booking, right the way through to the event itself. Right from the beginning he was absolutely amazing, swift with responses and made everything crystal clear. The song lists offer a range of music from different genres, but we both decided on a song that wasn’t covered in the song lists provided. We were a little apprehensive purely because it wasn’t listed, however he was more than accommodating and didn’t mind playing it regardless. There wasn’t a complaint and he worked closely with my husband for particular timings with the isle walks. Considering it was a song he wasn’t familiar with he smashed it! He also learned two additional songs to be played while the guests were waiting that weren’t covered by his list. It was so magical. My only re

He is is a true gentleman. Nothing was too much trouble and he was always available to answer our many questions. He played everything we asked of him and every song sounded beautiful! Would highly recommend!

He played the piano for our wedding ceremony and drinks reception. From the first contact he was responsive and gave a set list and suggestions for songs. He learned our aisle song and a number of the hymns which made things extra special. He really helped set the mood during the drinks reception. We couldn’t have been happier with the service he provided. If you’re looking for a fantastic pianist for your day, look no further!

Our wedding wouldn't have been the same without his wonderful music. He was on cue and fit the mood to perfection. A really talented pianist with an amazingly friendly and pleasant attitude, a real pleasure to deal with. He corresponded with the venue to take the stress from us and helped make sure we had the perfect music to complement the perfect day.
I would recommend him to anyone and for any occasion. Thank you so much.

An exceptional pianist- every song was played beautifully. He learned and played a few personal favourites of ours during our ceremony and drinks reception too which really made our wedding day extra special. There was a spontaneous change of setup for our reception and he was very accommodating! If you're thinking of booking a pianist for your wedding- we can't recommend him enough!

Played during our ceremony and wedding breakfast. He was highly responsive and accommodating in the run up to our wedding. He evidently has great care in his work, his approach was personal and his music was exactly what we wanted. He was a perfect addition to our day and we couldn't recommend him enough.

Thank you for playing the piano at our wedding in Cornwall! You were superb from the moment we made contact. Quick and easy communications throughout.
We loved your variety/range of music you played and the openness to our additional music requests. All of which were played beautifully. And our guests loved it!
We really appreciated your flexibility on the day, especially when our schedule didn't quite flow as smoothly as we'd planned, you had no issues with it and saved the day.
Thank you for everything!

I would highly recommend Dan if you are looking for a Pianist. His playing at our wedding was really beautiful and made the ceremony even more special and emotional.
He is also a lovely person and a pleasure to deal with. He is super responsive and very accommodating.
" |

Was super professional and helpful at all stages of our interactions. He was flexible and willing to do anything to make the day better, checking if we were happy with the music and offering us different options when we were experimenting with ideas. On the big day itself I have to say the piano filled the space more than any other styling could have, and it's something I've been hearing back about again and again since then.

We booked him to play piano for our wedding ceremony and he did not disappoint.
Me and my now husband and all our guest really enjoyed the music, and it set a lovely, elegant and relaxed feel for the service.
We were supplied a list of songs to choose from and we chose many of our own songs which wasn’t on the list but he was very accommodating and was able to perform and fulfil all our requests.
" |

He was brilliant from start to finish. From when we first enquired we got very clear communication and it was clear he wanted to ensure it was specific to what we wanted. There was no pressure on deciding how long we wanted him to play for and he helped in making our decision. There was a huge list of song choices to help give us ideas but this was not restricted with him offering to play anything we wanted. He was professional and a great communicator throughout which put us at ease and he was quick to reply to any contact. On the day, his music was beautiful and gave a special feel to the ceremony of which will always hold special memories. Highly recommend

He recently played the piano at my daughters wedding and I’m so pleased that he did as he certainly added an extra special touch to the ceremony. His music was beautiful and it created such a lovely calming atmosphere throughout the service. My daughter was able to choose the music that she wanted and it was all played fantastically well. Definitely worth every penny we paid and I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Thank you so much for adding an extra special touch to our perfect day.

He was brilliant! He was extremely responsive to emails and was more than happy to provide a quality service for all of my requests! We had some last minute changes to our service which he accommodated happily, even moving times/venue when needed. His music was beautiful and lots of guests commented on the wonderful piano player to me and my husband! I would highly recommend using him, he has a huge selection of songs to choose from or can play to themes/styles/genres. Thanks so much!

The music was amazing! Our guests thoroughly enjoyed listening to him play.
" |

Performed regularly at my premises for over 10 years. He really is the perfect piano player for us. There’s not a request he can’t play.
He adds something quite unique to the atmosphere and draws people out of themselves. Customers will be talking gently alongside the music and then find themselves singing along.
I can’t recommend him highly enough.

An incredibly proficient and adaptable musician especially on piano.
He is able to play classic jazz standards, Beautiful and complex music freestyle or adapt to any style. I have seen Martin play in several bands but also as part of a songwriting circle, contributing to evolving new music in real time.

An exceptional musician (pianist) playing a whole range of music, excelling in Jazz. He’s great at interacting with customers and never fails to please, he’ll read the room knowing when it’s time to get the crowd going or tinkle away in the background. Would highly recommend to anyone whether a business or private party.

He has a vast reportoire which gives a variety and egde to his performance. He judges the crowd perfectly to select the best genre and songs to suit the audience keeping them tapping their feet under the tables. I would not hesitate to book him for future events or to recommend him to others. First Class !

Played at our annual Boxing Day party and he was a huge success! From Frank Sinatra to Whitney Houston he kept everyone entertained and was good company as well. We would definitely recommend him for any event and will be booking him again ourselves

was every bit the consummate pianist we hoped he would be. His wide ranging play list was boosted by excellent interpretative skills. He played meticulously; but without compromise of feeling. To the delight of many he also dipped his ivory keys into the rather dangerous waters’ of personal requests. He survived. Comfortably! We have no hesitation in recommending him; hopefully he will play for us again, and soon!

Played at my mother's 80th birthday celebration. We were able to choose pieces that Mam would recognise. He even learnt a piece that Mam used to play years ago. Having him play at mam's celebration just made it an even more beautiful evening.

It was everything that we’d hoped for, even all our guests commented on it! He was so lovely and really, trustworthy, reliable and efficient on his emails. Couldn’t have asked for more.

Was absolutely wonderful! He played beautifully for 3 hours on my wedding day during the ceremony and the following drinks reception. He incorporated songs I asked for from his extensive repertoire, and he even learned 2 songs that I wanted during the ceremony. He was excellent at correspondence and generally a delight to deal with, I couldn't recommend him more!

A delight welcoming him to our special day. Easy to discuss all aspects with and able to have the perfect choice of music. The music was played beautifully and provided the perfect backdrop at our venue. It sounded fantastic and certainly helped set the atmosphere, and the ceremony was absolutely perfect too.

A fantastic experience from booking, multiple rearrangements due to covid, and finally the day itself! Communication was excellent throughout, with guidance and suggestions regarding music much appreciated. The atmosphere during our wedding reception was just perfect thanks to the gorgeous piano music, and being so friendly and approachable made the event even more special.

We got in touch with him and right from the start communicating and organising the day with him has been such a pleasure. He is incredibly efficient and helpful in all of his messages.
His talent for the piano is unquestionable and having him play at both our ceremony and wedding breakfast really made the day special. He was happy for us to choose any songs for our ceremony and worked hard to create a wonderful atmosphere during our wedding breakfast, mixing the classics with more modern songs so there was something for everyone.
Thank you, you've been fantastic!

Was brilliant from start to finish, I booked him with quite short notice and he was superb. I really wanted a very sentimental song played as I walked down the aisle but the song I wanted wasn’t the most fitting for the wedding we wanted. I asked him if there was anyway he could work on it and play this song for us and he went above and beyond to make it happen. A couple of weeks before the wedding he sent me the sample and I instantly burst out crying, it was perfect! It sounded exactly as I wanted it to sound, more gentle and delicate but still recognisable and familiar for us. Communication was spot on with him, attentive and quick responses, always happy to help me. He is extremely talented, everyone commented on how beautifully he played and my husband was beyond emotional hearing it

Helped take our wedding day to another level with a fantastic repertoire!
He massively contributed to making the best atmosphere for the day and set an amazing mood. He is a great presence, knows his stuff, made great recommendations and answered our many questions!

What a lovely message to come in to work to this morning. However, the thanks is all mine.
Your music was really everything I expected and more and it was the icing on the cake. The music was enjoyed by everybody including the birthday boy which truly made my day.
It was the perfect choice of music for the event and I wouldn’t have wished for better. Highly recommended.
Hope to book you again soon.

He set the perfect atmosphere at our wedding playing the piano we had hired. He is an exceptional piano player, playing both classical and contemporary music, and it was commented by both guests and staff at the venue how talented he was, and what a great idea it was to have him playing during the wedding breakfast. We can definitely recommend anyone who is contemplating having him play at any event that he will do a 5 star job.

We chose him to play for us at our wedding.
From the first moment I got in touch with him, he was nothing but helpful and a pleasure to deal with. He provided advice and guidance, but also made it clear that it was our day and so he would fit in with whatever we chose.
On the day itself, he arrived early to set up, and was very professional throughout. The music we had chosen was played beautifully and he then also stayed and played for us during our reception drinks.
I would have no hesitation in recommending him if you are looking for a pianist for your wedding or another celebratory event. You will find him a delight to deal with and a wonderful pianist

I had the absolute pleasure of walking down the aisle to the sound of him playing our chosen song at our church wedding and the memories continue to give me goosebumps.
We met with him a few months before our wedding and we knew straight away that we wanted him to play in the church. A gifted pianist, he was open to playing anything and offered us many ideas. We would definitely recommend him, he completely took the stress away from us, all I had to do was walk down the aisle and enjoy our service. He added that extra special touch. Throughout the planning stage to opening our much appreciated wedding card and CD the day after, He went above and beyond and we knew he would work with us to achieve what we wished.
Thank you for being part of a cherished memory and the most special and out

We chose him to play at our wedding after sampling various musicians online. What stood out about him among the rest was not only his playing ability but also the depth of genres that he could play and his flexibility. he was able to give us guidance on additional pieces of music that incorporated our initial ideas, in order to help us create the atmosphere that we wanted. he gave both myself and Fiancé confidence in an area we knew little about and when the big day arrived, his suggestions and guidance coupled with an amazing performance really put the cherry on top of the metaphorical wedding cake! The Ceremony just wouldn't have been the same without him. Professional yet friendly and informal, I would recommend him to anyone for any occasion

Just a note to thank you so very much for your fantastic piano playing on Friday at our daughter’s wedding! From the very outset you helped us so much, and we were very pleased at how you ‘got involved’ and made such valuable suggestions prior to the big day. As we had chosen more ‘pop’ music for the event, we were not sure how it would translate into a piano solo, and your reassurance on this was invaluable. You were so receptive to our ideas, and keen to find out exactly what we wanted for our ‘big day’, and ensure that you delivered just what we wanted!
Needless to say, your piano playing was superb, and the ceremony music we had chosen sounded fantastic. Many of our guests also commented on how much they enjoyed your extensive repertoire both before and after the actual ceremony pi

He has been playing for us for just over four years and he is a big hit with our customers. He's great at chatting with them and loves taking requests. He can literally play anything from old songs to songs released this month... make sure you ask for his jazz cover of Katy Perry.. its amazing! He does a regular Jazz night for us so why not pop in for a drink?

We book him to play at our Christmas party each year and it is without doubt a great evening every time. The guys love giving him requests and he plays them all! He makes Greenday tracks sound like they were written for piano. Very much recommend him.

I have booked him on a number of occasions to perform during our Officers Mess ball for the past three years. He his highly professional, punctual and incredibly competent.

Damian and I spend a long time searching for the perfect piano player for our special day. We knew what we wanted and although there were a lot of very good players out there we wanted our pianist to have a real touch of class. We found him on the internet and after hearing his music and watching his videos we knew we had hit on someone special. We arranged a meeting and after five minutes with him, we were sure he was going to be the man for us. Needless to say, he was fantastic. His music choices were spot on and everyone commented on how he really set the atmosphere. THANK YOU!

He was absolutely brilliant. He played for 4 hours solid and he absolutely nailed every song. He combined brilliantly with the drummer and everyone agreed they produced a great sound. I would unreservedly recommend him for any function where you need live music. Not only that he is a great guy and really got into the spirit of the occasion.

He brought with him a bass player and together they were absolutely perfect, playing their choice of smooth, popular jazz. The music was beautifully delivered and they made such a great accompaniment to the party, the ideal background music to create a warm and swinging atmosphere and a few people couldn't resist a dance. We all loved it, young and old. He was also highly organised, professional and conscientious. Superb, I would highly recommend him.

It gives me great pleasure to write and recommend the musical talents of Des.
I have known him for many years and we were colleagues in the same design and build company, but it was not until he played the piano for an important company corporate function that I realised just how musically gifted he was.
When my daughter was married and her reception was arranged at Swinfen Hall, it seemed a natural choice to ask him if he would play for us during the arrival of guests and we were so pleased that he was able to do this for us.
He played tirelessly for over three hours and we were delighted with the variety of music he could provide. In fact he was so good the bride and one of her bridesmaids joined him at the grand piano, much to the enjoyment of the guests. I believe that Swin

exactly what we were looking for. So many of our guests commented how much they enjoyed the wedding breakfast - not just the food, but the music and whole atmosphere and experience (which your music contributed greatly to).

We also loved the grand piano - it worked really well in the Pavilion so thanks for making the arrangements with Varsity.

I can't wait for another opportunity to have a party and ask you to play, so hope it won't be too long before I can find an excuse!
Your professionalism and musical ability are second to none. We recommend you at every opportunity.
So thank you and I look foreward to the next party.
(Wedding: ceremony, reception and evening dance party.)

'Believe it or not, you're the first person ever to play one of my own compositions in front of me.....
...... I'm very flattered, we were all saying that you're a very mean piano player indeed!

Right from the time you started playing, I was totally reassured that Claire had made the right choice and we were in unconditionally ‘safe’ hands. The music was soothing, relaxing and it was obvious that your range includes a wide selection for all tastes. Your input was appreciated not only by our English guests but also the German visitors many of whom made special mention of your talents and I will certainly ensure you have my highest recommendation should any future enquiries arise. Thank you.

A brief note to say we thought you were fantastic at our Wedding. The time and effort you put into the rehearsals for Laura's solo, the hymn, learning our special tunes was reflected in your performance on the day. If we need another pianist we will know where to come, and if you ever need a good reference as satisfied customers, you have it - just let us know. (Hope the champers will be useful!)

A thoroughly enjoyable evening. Lots of good feedback from people saying that the music was excellent and even though it was background music they enjoyed it and had a little boogie in their seats. There was a wide variety of music to entertain everyone.

I wanted to write a quick email to thank you for playing at our wedding reception. The atmosphere was precisely what we wanted and we greatly appreciated you flexibility on timings. Kelly and I both had a wonderful wedding day experience and we wanted to recognize your part in making the day so special for us.
Once more, thank you

strong melodic lines and stabbing, darting flurries of notes all suggest an original talent

The solos he plays on originals such as ‘Between Two Storms’ are expressive and fleeced with a composer’s instinct for form

We just wanted to express our upmost gratitude for your piano playing at our wedding reception at The Grosvenor.
You played beautifully and you were the perfect accompaniment.
Many of our guests commented on the day and afterwards on how much they enjoyed your playing. It was lovely to identify our favourite songs above all of the atmosphere in the venue.

Your contribution to our wedding was excellent. Your playing of the various tunes during the ceremony was just what we desired and the electric piano was better than we expected especially in such a large room. Your playing over the dinner created a delightful atmosphere
