Michael Zampiceni

Michael Zampiceni delighted us with beautiful songs from his French repertoire on the accordion but also sang a few songs with his melodic tenor voice. Our guests enjoyed a relaxing afternoon. Thanks Michael, thanks Gig Salad.

Michael is first rate - a wonderful musician and showman. He arrived on time, took requests and let the group in a rousing "roll out the barrel". I couldn't have asked for a better ambiance to my event. Thank you, Michael!

Michael was great. He played requests and was very professional.

We hired Michael to play at a backyard Oktoberfest party. Michael was prompt, professional, and all of our guests were impressed with his playing and singing. Thank you for a wonderful evening, Michael!

Music Mike was fantastic, as always! This is the 3rd year we have had him entertain at our Oktoberfest and he does not disappoint. Our guests love his accordion playing and singing....he adds so much fun to our party! Many of our guests sing along with Mike and we have nothing but praise from them. If you are considering entertainment for your party, book Music Mike, he is wonderful!

We just hosted a large Oktoberfest party and Mike was FABULOUS—a definite highlight to our party and all of our guests loved him and his excellent entertainment. He was very prompt and thorough in all of his communication with me prior to our party and added such an authentic touch to our event. A class act—-highly recommend!

Mike was delightful and really worked the room creating a happy upbeat ambiance for our reception full of teachers. He was fantastic and responding to my emails and arrived very promptly.

Michael was an absolute hit! He knew how to work the room. His musical knowledge was superb. He was able to work the room, clearly read the audience, and customize his performance as he went for each of the guests. Arrived early for the event to set up. So professional! I could not recommend him enough. This event for us was an Oktoberfest night, he dressed in costume, but I would recommend him for any style event where an accordion would be appropriate. Italian, French, Mexican, etc. He can do it all! We will definitely be having him back again :)

Mike was very flexible and adapted to a difficult situation when a freak weather cell drove our outdoor Oktoberfest party of 95, into our residence. Instead of people seated at round tables, they were seated on chairs in various rooms. Mike played music and moved thru the rooms, taking requests and singing. Our attendees were very complimentary of his music selection and his receptability to our situation.

Michael did a great job in providing French music for our Allianc Francaise event. We look forward to having him return for a future performance. C.f.r

Michael played Italian music beautifully on his accordion and he can sing as well. He can also play a variety of all types of music. My husband and I along with all our guests just loved Michael and his wonderful music. It made our party so festive! I would love to have Michael back for more. So talented!!

Mike was fantastic! We hired him for a surprise pizza party that we filmed and even asked him to learn a custom song on his accordion. Mike was super flexible and rolled with all the changes of the day. Our event definitely was unique and had many challenges but Mike easily adapted and was the highlight for everyone there. Can't recommend him enough!

Everyone loved him and he really made our party a success :)

Michael delighted a large crowd with New Orleans, Cajun, Musical Comedy, Tin Pan Alley and Italian Music. We had an SRO crowd!

We intend to invite him back!

Michael was very personable and played well! We will definitely ask him back.

I hired Michael to surprise my Aunt as a 95th birthday gift. We celebrated it on Thanksgiving.
She cried happy tears and even got up and danced!
My entire Italian family loved his music and voice.
You are in for a real treat!

Michael performed for our swim club party and was a hit. He is a talented musician and everyone loved his music. We would book him again for future performances. Five stars!

He played a good variety of music and his voice was wonderful!!!

If you really want to have a good old-fashioned time with singing, dancing and enjoying yourself, I highly recommend Mike! He has a huge repertoire of songs, and can play most requests. He made my father’s birthday a delightful event!

Michael was perfect for our festivities - even appearing in lederhosen. Great musician and selections played added to the festive evening. Would definitely use his talents again.

Micheal is such a nice guy!!played for our daughters Oktoberfest party. The music was great! Everyone loved listening to him play.

We had a great time.

Mike was fabulous. He played at my son's rehearsal dinner for 50 guests. We had an Italian theme and I selected songs from Mike's extensive playlist. For this party, I wanted more 'background' music during cocktails, and it was perfect!

We had Michael for an Oktoberfest event and he came dressed in German costume and the music was perfect for the event.
He has a great voice and is very talented.

Michael a was delightful addition to our annual Oktoberfest social held at our swim club. He arrived on time, yet our member meeting ran long so his start time was delayed. Michael was kind enough to play a couple tunes beyond our contracted time to entertain our families. He even came dressed for the occasion with lederhosen and German hat! He really helped bring an atmosphere of fun and festivity.

I can definitely, and highly recommend Mike Zampiceni. I just celebrated my 60th birthday, had him playing his accordion in the background. As the appetizers, were being passed around. Everyone loved it!

Michael was fantastic! He played for our mother’s 90th birthday party-Italian theme. He sang and played Italian favorites and had everyone singing along. His accordion and singing voice were outstanding and he helped make the party even more fun!

Michael was the perfect entertainment for my Mom’s birthday celebration. She grew up with polkas and played the accordion and Michael indulged us with some classic polkas and other fun songs.

Working with Michael was a lot of fun. I had a featured solo in the DMT Summer Chorus' Concert. The song I sang was Wooden Heart and having an accordion accompany me was a perfect fit. I found Michael on line, explained the booking and have to say that Michael made the process extremely easy.
Michael is a true professional and added the perfect touch to the evening, stealing the show with his musicality. Everyone loved the performance and many asked for Michael's contact information. I hope to get the opportunity to work with Michael again soon.

Mike was the perfect musician/performer. The coordination pre-event was smooth and professional. Mike was on time and ready to go. He played the perfect selection of songs and was very engaging, especially with the children. I was really impressed. I definitely recommend Mike for your next event.

My partner loves accordian music, so was thrilled to have Michael show up as a surprise birth gift. Michael arrived on time, was very professional and adapted to our guests to make it as enjoyable as possible.

I engaged Michael Z. to play during my father's 100th birthday party which was held at my parent's home.
I could not be happier with the job the Michael Z. performed. Michael exceeded my expectations in many ways:
- he tailored his song list to emphasize the songs of my fathers generation (1900's - 1960's) including playing
many requests that I knew my father liked
- he played while my nephew sang "Hymne L' Amour" having been presented the sheet music a couple of
hours before the event
- he entertained the party guests between dinner and dessert while the 'family' went to take group pictures
he walked between the tables playing and singing engaging all 60 guests- unprompted
- he was flexible with regards to changes to the schedule of the party (going overlong) and, indeed, during
the whole event from planning to execution.
- He worked well with the magician we hired for seamless transitions and a great partygoer experience.
I whole-heartedly recommend Micheal Z. for your event!

Mr. Zampiceni did a great job at our Italian dinner. He played some wonderful, classic Italian songs and everyone enjoyed it. I like the fact that he strolled around the dining room playing for the guests.

Wonderful performer. Receptive to our needs. Easy to work with.

From Esther:
My husband of over 50 years passed, this event was a celebration of his life. He LOVED the ACCORDION!!
Michael's is so kind, so in tuned to all those in attendance at the funeral reception. He was very cautious to keep the music appropriate, quiet and calm, for the event. YET, he received requests for polkas, singing and increase of volume after the event was on its way. He met those requests. He has incredible skills as a player and singer. We were more than happy we hired him :) Bless you Michael!

Michael Zampiceni is everything we had hoped for when hiring an Italian accordionist. He’s a very skilled musician, timely, communicative, humble, very Italian in his delivery as we’d hoped and his voice is quite charming! He receives 10 stars for being intuitively sensitive to the responsiveness of the audience, this was a event)! His rates were better than most, very reasonable! We’d hire him again!!!

Michael , Was wonderful. It was a surprise for my wife and guests to have an accordion player at my wedding reception. When the guests started coming in from the ceremony Michael was playing what I had requested which was French accordion music. Everyone was surprised and delighted to hear him play. While we were taking photos before coming in the DJ came out to go over a few things and said "Michael is killing it in there" His words not mine .

Once again thank you Michael for making our wedding so memorable.

We hired Michael for our annual Oktoberfest, an event to show our appreciation to our customers. Not only did he play great music for the occasion, he sang some of the songs as well! Everyone attending the festival loved Michael.....we hope he will come back next year and do it again. We highly recommend Michael Zampiceni!

Mike Zampiceni played for my daughters wedding and it was a delight to have him "roving" the area and entertained the guests with numerous selections. He played a waltz for the father and bride dance which was picked up by the other musicians and gigged with the other musicians giving a festive atmosphere to the occasion.
