Professional Piper - Sean Buchta

Sean was very patient and kind, waiting for family to arrive to my father’s gathering. He was gracious with his time and music. I have had family telling me all week that it meant so much to have him there. Thank you so much Sean.

Sean was extremely professional and affordable. This was a last minute booking (less than a weeks notice). Sean showed up on time and knew exactly what to do. It was a beautiful moment that our family will cherish forever.

Made a last minute search when I found out my uncle's request for bagpipes to be played when he died. Well not when he died but when we all dropped bits and pieces of him here and there (cremated I promise), anyways I found out late Saturday and within minutes Sean reached out. Shared what little details I knew for the celebration and ashes spreading the next day and he said no problem. Apparently my request for hallelujah Is not a common bagpipe solo. I said no problem then another classic (already planned on amazing grace) would do. Well Sean showed up ready to go and said he was able to work out a version of hallelujah on the pipes the night before. Blew amazing grace out of the water of course and hallelujah was surprising as well. My whole family was in tears and so happy to be able to give my uncle what he wanted but the fact Sean was so professional and courtious and played amazingly really made it work out well. While I'm not sure what the going rate for a musician on short notice and not playing more than a couple songs back to back should be, he absolutely earned the fee and then some.

Sean is an excellent bagpiper. Easy to work with, showed up early and stayed late. Great communication with him. Would hire again, can not say enough about how enjoyable the event went in our over 55 community. A good Scottish lad.
