Fantastic bagpipe performance for a birthday gathering. Ryan was very flexible on the logistics and set list. His concert was the hit of the weekend and will be a phenomenal memory for years to come.
He was on time dress accordingly, interacted with the crowd and was very professional. Love to have him again . I would recommend highly .
Ryan was lovely; on-time, easy to communicate with during event planning, and well put-together for our event! Would certainly hire again.
I engaged Ryan to play my girlfriend's daughter's wedding in Pittsburgh in March, 2017. Ryan played Canon in D Major as the bride was escorted down the aisle by her mother, and he played Highland Cathedral as the wedding party walked down the aisle and exited the church after the ceremony. For both tunes the music was incredibly beautiful! Ryan is obviously a very talented bagpipe player. The music was well-played and filled the entire church. Many guests at the wedding commented on how beautiful the bagpipes were and how much they enjoyed them as part of the wedding.
I highly recommend Ryan for your special occasion. He is incredibly professional, reasonably priced, and a joy to work with. He worked very well with the organist and church personnel to make sure that all parties were satisfied with when and where he should play. It was a joy to have him add to the celebration in the way that he did.
Thanks, Ryan!
