"Antony played at our wedding ceremony in July of 2018 at Mitton Hall. We were searching for someone who could take electronic dance songs and translate them into music suitable for a wedding ceremony. Antony did an amazing job. Many of our guests commented on how good the ceremony music was. Antony was able to adjust to the timings of the day and created a wonderful atmosphere. So much so, that one of our close friends asked Antony to play at his wedding the following year. We were amazed with how accommodating Antony was, helping us find the right piano, producing recordings for our wedding video and being early on the day to make sure everything was ready to go. Highly recommended. True artist."

"I have been greatly privileged to have had the opportunity to work with Gareth while he was musical director of several local choirs. He is a highly skilled, talented and dedicated musician, working across the fields of accompaniment, musical direction, concert performance and composing, to name but a few. His empathy and professionalism as a teacher make it a real pleasure to sing with a choir led by him; his humour can deal with the most prima donna style behaviour in a sympathetic, but firm, manner and he challenges choir members to improve the quality of their performance and to learn new work that stretches their ability. He is always encouraging in his comments, even when the choir members know that they have not done as well as they could! His arrangements of songs and, particularly, his own compositions, are always stimulating to learn and perform, and he inspires a genuine love of music in those he teaches or leads. As an accompanist, he is acutely aware of the performer(s) or musician(s) he is working with, assisting them in producing the best performance possible. It is a joy to hear him perform in his own right, both as a pianist and an organist, and his repertoire is extensive. He will play any piece of music that is put in front of him! Thanks to technology, he can even play three pianos at the same time, which provides considerable entertainment. I have attended many concerts given by Gareth, or organised by him, and have never been disappointed at what I have heard or seen. His attention to detail is second to none as is his determination to give of his best, no matter what it is that he is undertaking. I would highly recommend him to anyone who requires a genuinely talented musician. "

"Dave was amazing at our wedding. Lovely during the more chilled evening set and then really got the crowd and the dance floor going for the rest of the night! He was also brilliant at all the organisational comms, and a really lovely guy as well. Can’t recommend enough."

"Gareth thank you for your stunning playing at our wedding last month. We were so lucky to find you at short notice and really appreciate the time, care and calming humour you brought to us in our planning coffee. Gareth Giles is a truly lovely man to work with and made all our musical dreams come true with apt suggestions and help with the detailing of the order of service. His playing is pure genius and any couples reading this looking for a highly talented, experienced church musician who also happens to be a lovely, funny man to work with should NOT hesitate to book him - you will not be disappointed. Fantastic music flows from this man Thanks again GG and keep in touch"

"Hey Bongo Dave!. I wanted to say a MASSIVE THANKS for being and absolute legend at our wedding. I got lots of compliments throughout the night about how much of a hero you were.... It meant a lot to me to have the bongos (played so well) at our wedding. Thanks so much for making the journey down."

"I run a little Amateur Dramatics group called The Chanticleer Players and we were all attempting to put on our first Pantomime! We were struggling until we stumbled upon the brilliant Tom Kelsey! Tom came and saved the day! It was all rather last minute really, but Tom took it all in his stride and raised our Pantomime performance with his amazing piano playing. Not all our cast who sang are singers but Tom managed to make each and every one look great! He was able, off the cuff, to produce background music to scenes, which enhanced the audience experience. We had a CD of Christmas Songs playing as the audience arrived and took there seats, but one evening it faltered and broke. Tom stepped in and played Christmas songs to keep the atmosphere alive until the Pantomime was ready to begin. Tom was punctual, professional, understanding, adaptable and above all an outstanding musician. I can highly recommend Tom and we will be asking him back in the Summer! "

"Your performance at our lakeside wedding was the talk of the day! The way you tailored your attire to our color scheme was a lovely touch. And your suggestion to have a bagpipe-led procession down to the water's edge was magical. You truly went above and beyond."
