What a delight

Megan could not have been any more professional! She worked with me on curating a lovely list of songs for my girlfriend’s birthday surprise. Day of the gig, I made a few last-minute requests and she made it happen and then some. Most importantly, she was so genuine and made my girlfriend feel special. I told Megan that my hope for every student of mine is that they follow their heart’s passion because the result of doing so leads to days like yesterday. If you're looking for a passionate and dedicated artist for your event Megan Shung is your artist.

Perfect

Megan put together the most amazing string trio for our wedding in May. Their performance and professionalism was outstanding. Great follow-up, flexibility, communication -- and extremely talented. All of our guests commented on how beautiful the strings were during our ceremony. Thanks so much Megan!

Corporate Holiday Party - Fantastic

We hired Megan to play during our holiday client/staff appreciation event. Megan arrived on time, professionally dressed and played beautifully. We had already discussed in very loose terms what the music might be and she choose music selections that were well suited for our event with no need for my direction so I could focus on our clients. Her music added the perfect ambiance to our event. I would definitely without hesitation refer her and hire her again.

Made My Engagement Special

i was planning to propose to my girlfriend and the other musicians weren't able to play for the event afterall. So i contacted Megan on very short notice, told her my budget, and she took care of it all with a smile and a great performance. i'm so glad i chose her to play for our special day. My girlfriend and i could not have been happier. Thank you so much.

Talented Professionals!

I was blessed to work with Megan for my wedding. She was so helpful and kind and engaging. She made the process so very simple. I had no idea what I was doing! I needed music for my wedding ceremony and had no idea where to even start. Megan worked her magic and I had the talented Francesca and Eugene make my husband's and my big day that much more special. The only thing that would have made it better is if I could have had her play at my wedding, but unfortunately she was unavailable that weekend due to family obligations. I highly, highly recommend her and her services.
