Reliable, polite, accomplished Pianist

We booked Alexander for our Christmas party after the first booking cancelled 3 days before my event due to anticipated bad weather on the day of the party.
Alex promised that he will come despite the conditions and he did. There was weather warnings but he kept his promise.
It’s hard to find the reliability of that kind in this day.
Alex, I thank you from the bottom of my heart and wish you a merry Christmas.
I will definitely recommend Alex to anyone.
Savita.

Another successful party with Alexander!

This is the second time we’ve had Alexander play our Christmas party and he was wonderful! Every guest at the party was mesmerized by his playing. We all felt like we had been transported to a magical winter wonderland. Alexander was also a pleasure to work with. He was professional and friendly, and went out of his way to make sure everyone was having a great time. I cannot recommend him highly enough, and I’m already planning to have him back for my next event!

Beautiful pianist for our ceremony

Alexander was great to work with and is such a talented pianist. He's super responsive (we traded a lot of notes back and forth) before the wedding. He played our requested songs beautifully. Recommend!!

Prefect accompaniment for our small event

Alexander was the perfect choice for our Wine & Cheese party. He is lovely to deal with.
The attendees were an older crowd and his music selection was the classics, that a group that age would like.
The event was only 35 people and I was concerned that the music might drown out the social conversations, but it did not. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Fantastic Pianist!

Alexander played piano for my mother’s surprise 70th birthday party.

His communication prior to the event was great, and he was very punctual and professional on the big day.

He is an excellent pianist with a strong repertoire. He was able to transition effortlessly from a cocktail to a seated meal and then speeches.

I can’t recommend him highly enough for your next event.

5 Star!

Alexander was fantastic to work with. He's very professional and punctual. We connected a few weeks before the event to discuss the songs and he was very happy to accommodate our requests. He played many Bollywood songs which our guests love! Alex, thank you very much for playing at our event! Hope to work with you again in the future.

Amazing & Accomodating

Alexander was great to work with. I booked him for my wedding reception and provided him with some Bollywood tracks to play. He was very accommodating and learned the songs perfectly - all my guests loved it. He arrived early and was a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Alexander.
