Thank you so much for your splendid music yesterday. I can't remember how many of the guests remarked on your performance during the afternoon, but it probably was all of them! It really was great. Your versatility and range of music was very impressive and I know that everyone was amazed at your ability to play requests from memory. Thank you for making the occasion that much more memorable. I am sure we will ask you to play again in the future.
Thanks for a terrific evening with wonderful playing and musicality.
Thank you so much for your wonderful music on Saturday. It set the tone and provided the right atmosphere for the evening - everyone was singing along. I'm so impressed by your ability to play by ear - you never seem to be stumped by people's choices! Thank you once again.
We just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you for providing us with wonderful music for the funeral on Monday. The music was pitched just right and lots of people commented on how lovely it was to have live music rather than a cd. Thanks again for helping to create a fitting tribute to G.

...our most memorable moment this year was the celebration of our 'Do' at the Wiltshire Music Centre. We especially enjoyed your accordion presentation, both the playing and the performance. Everybody thought that you were great and in particular your 'requests' spots at the tables. Thanks. We hope to be able to see and hear you again before too long.
I especially wanted to thank you for your wonderful playing. It was really appreciated by everyone - no-one could believe we had found such a super accordion player to create just the right continental ambiance. They loved it and it really kicked off the second part of the party. You really do have a glorious talent not just for the instrument but for creating a great atmosphere - you make everyone feel so at ease. Thank you again so much, your music really added to what was a very special night for me.
Just wanted to thank you so much for the wonderful ambiance you created at my parent's diamond wedding party a couple of weeks ago. Of course everyone at the party thoroughly enjoyed the music, but have also just heard from the neighbours two doors away who "really enjoyed the music, and felt they were in France"! Everything was absolutely perfect and it was a real pleasure to meet you. Thanks again.
