Jarek was a true highlight to our event! He was a wonderful musician and person. He showed up about 45 minutes before the surprise and picked appropriate music that my brother in law loved! Thank you so much Jarek !!❤️🎷🎷🎼
Saxophone Player
Amazing guitarist, mood and tone was perfect for memorial. Very much appreciate a well done performance by Jarek. Thank you Jarek.
Violinist
Jarek was punctual and tailored the music to my requests. His performance was professional, beautiful and enjoyed by all. The guests commented on his music variety and talent. Jarek played the violin for half hour and then the saxophone for half hour. Both performances were amazing. Jarek is a pleasure to work with and a great addition to any event.

Couldn't have asked for someone better. Jarek is a lovely guy and he makes sure that he gives his best shot at it. Me and my girlfriend were extremely happy with his service. I am really grateful for Jarek for coming out on such a cold night and playing his beautiful Violin.
Overall experience 10000%
Violinist
Punctual, friendly, clearly an experienced live performer. Adapted amazingly to changes I had to make to my plans before the event. Provided musical coverage during my event that I didn't know I needed, which made the event even more memorable! Highly recommended.
Violinist
Asked Jarek to return a few months after his first performance since it was such a hit. He played for my parents again. I was not around but heard nothing but glowing reviews :)
Guitarist
He was a 10/10, on time, very respectful, people person, informative about his craft and he did an excellent job.
Saxophone Player
did a great job, all my guests really loved his performances.
Violinist
Jarek was fantastic, both in the quality of the performance (violin and saxaphone) and in the way he interacted with my elderly parents. He was very skilled in both instruments, easy going and was able to adapt the style of music based on our preferences. I am already in discussions with my family about rebooking him for another event!

Jarek played trumpet and violin for our Remembrance Day ceremony at our retirement home. He played beautifully for our residents, and was s accommodating with a couple specific song requests we had. Would definitely book him again!

Jarek was an exceptional performer and professional. He played exactly what we requested and with such talent. His elegance and warmth made the guests comfortable and his music created a whimsical ambiance. I thoroughly recommend Jarek to anyone looking for a talent violinist/musician.

Cellist, Violinist
Jarek came equipped with a violin and guitar, just as requested. He plays both wonderfully! He had a professional demeanor, was well dressed, and interacted well with our audience (taking musical requests). We also paired Jarek with another musician, and they made a great duo! Bar none, he is a seasoned pro. All our guests had great feedback. I can't thank Jarek enough!
I'd definitely recommend Jarek at your next event, and already planning to book him again in near future.

I booked Jarek for a company holiday lunch event and he was fantastic. I booked him only for one hour but he continued to play on for another 30 min than we expected. He is an absolute professional and I look forward to booking his services again in the near future. Thanks a lot Jarek!

Jarek elevated the party, taking guest requests and being able to play both soft tempo and upbeat music at the drop of a hat!! Would recommend for any event!

Cellist, Guitarist
We hired Jarek for a corporate event. He was very easy to communicate with, brought his own gear and arrived right on time. He even brought both a cello and guitar so he could switch back and forth and offer our guests more variety. We received lots of compliments from our guests and couldn't be happier with the decision to book Jarek.

What to Expect
As a soloist I perform in a designated place or walk around the room with violin or guitar hooked up to a wireless sound system; playing along the band, DJ or my own tracks. Where necessary I provide my own equipment including speakers including a microphone, lighting and instruments. While singing I use my own microphone and sound system. Where DJ service applies I provide a cordless mic, sound system, and lighting (to be discussed with the client).
Logistics and details are customized to each client for events that are large and involve a team of performers and/or specialists.
You can expect a professional attitude, organized manner, clear communication and high quality of service.
About
I and my team/band began providing live music solo and in groups to private and corporate clients in Toronto and Southern Ontario just before the first iPhone came out. Knowing that each occasion is special and unique, I chose the content with the input of my clients and other parties in order to maintain the desired atmosphere of the event. No project is too large as I consistently collaborate with some of Toronto’s top level artists, including orchestral musicians, classical ensembles, jazz trios, dance bands and dancers. I am a versatile player with international experience performing in small venues, large theaters and festivals in Canada, USA, and Europe.
