Response from Master Musicians, Inc.:
Thank you so much!
The bagpiper arrived on time and set up in the perfect location to “pipe in” our wedding guests as they arrived. He played very well! My fiancé (now husband!) wanted to incorporate a few touches to honor his Scottish heritage and we couldn’t have been happier with our decision to go with Master Musicians for a bagpiper. Thank you!
Response from Master Musicians, Inc.:

Not only was the harpist early, she was professional and played beautifully. It truly added that extra touch to the event. I not only recommend Master Musicians, but if you need a harpist ask for Yana!
Response from Master Musicians, Inc.:
Vanessa,
Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We were delighted to have our Harpist, Yana, perform for Katrina's "Swan Lake" Themed Baby Shower. We hope everyone enjoyed the beautiful music and wish Katrina all the best on the arrival of her new baby. We look forward to working with you all again in the future.
Disappointed.
Response from Master Musicians, Inc.:
Kelly,
We appreciate you taking the time to provide your feedback. After our conversation with you, we reached out to the musician who performed as we were surprised to hear you were disappointed. Our musician is very talented with a long history with music performances including Oscar-Winning movies he's performed for. He is a dedicated musician who takes every performance seriously. He played a Classical repertoire for your Ceremony & Cocktail Hour as requested.
We are saddened to hear you were disappointed with your choice in choosing a Solo Classical Violinist to perform for you and entertain your guests at your intimate wedding. The Violin is a warm and romantic instrument and creates a classical soundscape. A Solo Violin, by itself, is beautiful for a Wedding Ceremony but it is not an upbeat engaging instrument for a Cocktail Hour. Within our quote to you for a Violinist, we provided several Violinist options, along with music details, sound samples and pricing. We provide these lengthy quotes which include music & sound details so our customers can see what we offer and make their own decision. If you wished for a different soundscape and the music to be more lively and engaging, perhaps having Contemporary music and even adding backing soundtracks, would have been the better option as the tracks provide all the elements of the music - the harmonies and rhythm. Since you chose our basic package for a Solo Classical Violinist, the vibe created would be more Classical than Contemporary. We’re sorry your experience didn’t match your expectations. We hope to have another chance to work with you in the future. We wish you and your husband all the best for a Lifetime of Love & Happiness with your recent nuptials!
Everything was great! thank you so much!
Response from Master Musicians, Inc.:
Jeff, it was an honor to be a part of such an important day and have our Violinist perform for you and your guests in the heartfelt "Celebration of Life" service (with a beautiful ocean view) you arranged for your Mother. Thank you for the opportunity to share our music with you.
I hired a cellist to play during my marriage proposal. She did an amazing job and was on time. Very professional. Really set the mood for a beautiful moment.
Response from Master Musicians, Inc.:
Thank you, Otto! Congratulations on your engagement! We were delighted to help you and provide one of our talented musicians to help make such an important and memorable event in your lives extra special. It was truly an honor to have our Cellist perform for you, your fiance' and all your guests. We wish you both a Lifetime of Love & Happiness!
Looking forward to helping you in the future - we are here when you are ready to plan your Wedding Musicians!

ABOUT SOME INSTRUMENTS
Harp Ensembles:
An important factor to consider is the venue you have chosen and whether it can accommodate a Harp. Harps typically weigh around 80+ pounds which makes them difficult to move and is typically moved with a Harp Dolly. This instrument may not be ideal for all venues. If your event is on a sandy beach, or outdoors without four walls containing the sound, or if the musician is expected to perform for more than 1 hour in two separate areas of the venue, we request that you provide us with more details before making this important decision. The Harpist should have a detailed idea of the load-in; how many stairs, if there is an elevator, etc. The instrument should be kept away from pets and children.
The Harp is a delicate instrument and must be on a flat, hard solid surface. Harps cannot be on grass or sand or sandy beaches. Alternative surface option may apply with some venues: You should provide a 4x6 hard platform/board for the musician to perform on Or we offer a board rental. Please ask us about this if your venue is outdoors.
Covering must always be provided for Outdoor Events/No Direct Sun: Harps are very delicate and valuable instruments and cannot take any sun or moisture. Here in Florida, Harps should be in the shade especially during the day. In winter months, depending on weather circumstances, time of day, direct sun may be okay for a short period but is NOT preferred. Wet weather plan is recommended as the instrument cannot be rained on.
Harp Sound Outdoors: When set up outdoors, without four walls, containing the sound may be too delicate to project well especially if there is a large guest count. The Harp may be lovely for a Wedding Ceremony but may not be ideal for the Cocktail Hour, if you have a large guest count.
Harp Special Amplification Upon Request: Equipment fee will apply (30 mins to install and 30 mins to uninstall).
______________
Steel Drums:
An important factor to consider is the venue you have chosen and whether it can accommodate the Steel Drums. Covering must always be provided for Outdoor Events/No Direct Sun. Here in Florida, during the hotter times of the year, the Steel Drums needs to avoid direct sunlight, which changes the size of the steel and throws off the pitch of the instrument. An umbrella is needed to shade the musician. The instrument cannot be on a sandy beach as it needs a flat and stable surface for the instrument and equipment. A 4' x 4' board is needed to insure the Musician has a flat and stable surface for his instrument and equipment if your venue is in an outdoor space. Please let us know any details as we do offer a board rental if needed. The musician should also have a detailed idea of the load-in; how many stairs, if there is an elevator, etc.

PERFORMANCE TIME/OVERTIME:
Our musicians are hired and paid for the performance time requested. While our musicians are professional and will use their discretion, they typically will not leave during a Ceremony, Cocktail Hour, or Reception because they reached their scheduled performance "end time" after your event was running late. We encourage you to plan your timing accordingly and can add extra performance time beforehand in increments of 15 minutes.
Please reach out to us about timing in advance of booking. Any additional performance time is considered "Overtime" and is billed in 30 minute increments which must be paid on the day of the event in cash form.
