"Mark really helped to make our wedding super special and set the tone with his excellent and engaging music. He was a pleasure throughout, making things easy for us and obviously put in a lot of hard work behind the scenes - his music from the church and the reception was one of the main talking points of the day - people are still talking about his atmospheric rendition of the Game of Thrones theme in the church! We couldn't recommend Mark enough - he obviously loves what he does - and that comes through in all his performances and created a wonderful atmosphere right from the start of our special day."

Thank you Will and Sarah for your great review! I'm really pleased that everyone present enjoyed the music in church, and after at the wedding breakfast in the barn. I particularly enjoyed using the little Victorian organ alongside my keyboard in the church, it gave me the sound variations that I needed to play all of your requested music authentically - yes, Game of Thrones was a blast, and then exiting to Dire Straits 'The Walk of Life' worked brilliantly! It was lovely to meet you finally after nearly a years planning, thank you again for choosing me, keep in touch. Mark (May 2016)

"Des is just brilliant. His style of smooth Jazz playing is wonderful and can either be at the forefront of an event or as simple live background music. He is extremely flexible and I have seen hi fit comfortably into such varied situations as Christmas day at church, background music at a networking event and as part of a band at a local festival. Highly recommended."

"I had the pleasure of working with Mark at Britta and Matt's wedding at Balliol College Chapel, Oxford last Saturday. He played the organ beautifully before and during their wedding ceremony, and was highly professional organising the timings with me and ensuring the entrance and exit of the bridal party went smoothly. The couple, as well as many of their guests, mentioned how fabulous Mark's playing was."

"We asked Des to play the organ at our wedding on 2nd September at Cambray Baptist Church. From start to finish he was absolutely amazing and an utter professional. He didn't bat an eyelid when we asked him to play complex and unusual music and seemed to know all the old fashioned hymns we requested. When the bride was late it didn't phase him and he played continually for over 30 minutes. He mastered the Sound of Music Wedding Processional and the Can Can as well as lots of hymns. He turned up for the rehearsal and on the day was absolutely wonderful. He is extraordinarily talented and a wonderful unflappable musician. We thoroughly recommend Des - he will not let you down! "

"Just wanted to say a massive thank you to Mark for playing at our wedding (November 2015)! Mark was so helpful and professional every time that we dealt with him. He was happy to play all of our crazy requests and did a great job on the day. The music was beautiful and our guests loved it! "

It was a pleasure to play for your drinks reception at Anstey Hall back in November. I enjoyed performing your playlist too, the little ones especially enjoyed the theme from Frozen! Please keep in touch, and I look forward to playing for you again in the future. Mark

"Gareth Giles is the best organist and pianist I could ever have hoped to book for my daughter's wedding at The Church of St Michael in Aynho, Northamptonshire. He is an incredibly talented player and really brought the church organ to life. He went to great lengths to adapt the music to the instruments available and his playing was breathtaking throughout. He kept in touch regularly to offer advice and helpful suggestions and sent the funniest emails I've ever received! Gareth is a thoroughly nice man with a great sense of humour, an infectious enthusiasm and a clear passion for music."

"Sue played beautifully and sensitively at my father's funeral - a lovely range of classical music that was perfect for the occasion. She was very keen to make sure that she fulfilled our needs and she absolutely did. I would recommend her without reservation."

"Robert played a lovely selection of music - some of our choosing, some of his and some of the residents' requests. Most popular with the older people were his medley of war-time songs and some Frank Sinatra tunes whereas we marginally younger folk enjoyed the Beatles medley. The organ concert made a very pleasant occupation for a cold, early-winter afternoon. We would highly recommend Robert Baker for such a function and maybe next time we'll invite his wife along to come and sing with/for the residents, too. "

"Gareth - thank you for again demonstrating your amazing musicianship skills at the superb concert in Claygate the other week. This man has to be heard and seen to be believed ! Classical, show tunes , jazz, duets (with himself !) and virtuoso, colourful performances showing that this man is a true Master of his craft, equally at home on the ORGAN or the PIANO or in the case of one of his own arrangements, darting between the 2 with energy and an engaging enthusiasm for every genre of music. If you are looking for an Organist or Pianist or Accompanist for any occasion get in touch with Gareth - as has been said here before, he is the consummate musician. Thank you Gareth for sharing your art and music with so many. All the best from George."

"Gareth transposed/re-arranged/jazzed up some music for me to play in a soul band at very short notice. The music he produced was spot on despite having no knowledge of the band or how they played - amazing! Thank you."
