Cocktail Party•Reviewed on December 3, 2018•From Santa Monica, CA
I was very pleased and impressed with Tavi. He arrived on time, and set up promptly so the music was playing when the party started and people walked in. I received a ton of compliments about his playing, which was superb. And he knew how to interact with the guests. 5 stars!
Wedding•Reviewed on November 25, 2018•From Moorpark, CA
My wife and I are extremely pleased with Tavi and his musical services for our wedding ceremony and reception held on 11 November 2018. Our dinner guests commented on the caliber of musical performance. Most of the guests noted this was the first-ever wedding featuring elegant music, and furthermore they were easily able to hear other dinner guests over the music. Tavi was extremely gracious in collaborating and performing with a vocalist that was brought on to sing at the reception. Tavi's personality, service, and musical gifting are top-tier. This was a very classy performance.

WOW! Tavi is amazing! My wedding was magical because of him. He hosted a listening session for my family and I, and let us pick and choose songs for the ceremony. We told him the type of atmosphere we wanted when guests arrived, and during cocktail hour, and he easily picked genres and songs that matched our vision. He is not only a great guitarist, but has amazing customer service. He is kind, and professional. My day was perfect and beautiful. I can't thank him enough. Do yourself a favor, and book him for your event ASAP. Thank you Tavi!!! You're the best!

Tavi lived up to all the excellent reviews. He's kind, courteous, professional, and a phenomenal talent. We couldn't be more pleased to have him play at our party.
Private Party•Reviewed on March 13, 2018•From Los Angeles, CA
Tavi played a private dinner party for me and several clients of mine. He was EXCELLENT. The music was perfect. He provided an ambiance that otherwise did not exist. The next time I host a private dinner I will be calling Tavi. He was exactly what we were looking for and exceeded all expectations. If you are looking for an excellent musician, hire Tavi.
Corporate Function•Reviewed on March 5, 2018•From Palm Springs, CA
I am a venue manager for a restaurant in Palm Springs. I contacted Tavi to play for a corporate dinner event who was seeking entertainment. While Tavi himself was unavailable for the gig, he assisted coordinating a colleague of his to play since he could not. This was a last minute request on my end and Tavi was so incredibly professional, and helpful in securing a guitarist. The guitarist arrived, was professional and very talented! Thank you so much for your part in my client's successful event!

Wedding•Reviewed on November 12, 2017•From Avalon, CA
Tavi was way beyond great. After reviewing dozens of guitarists, we finally settled on Tavi. Listening to his music on youtube and whatnot was super helpful in finding the right style, but what's better, Tavi was an incredibly nice person. He was very sweet to us and an absolutely phenomenal guitar player. He even made a special rendition of Over the Rainbow for my wife to walk down the aisle to since that song was very special to her dad who is no longer with us.
Cannot recommend Tavi enough. Would hire him again in a snap if I could just come up with a reason.
Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 28, 2017•From Studio City, CA
I could not have hoped for a better performance than what I got from Tavi. His experience and professionalism was only outdone by his beautiful playing ability and warm, engaging personality. It really felt like having a good friend play for us.
Tavi was very accommodating and met with us to work on song lists and got to know us on a personal level to better tailor his playing to our style. There were many guitar fans at our wedding and they all remarked at how fantastic it was to watch and listen to his playing.
I give Tavi my highest recommendation -- he is the best of the best, and both my wife and I hope to enjoy his musicianship again in the future.
Wedding•Reviewed on August 10, 2017•From Simi Valley, CA
Tavi is a very receptive, friendly, talented guitarist. We had the opportunity to listen to him play his music in his home in order to hear first hand how he plays. He played at our wedding during ceremony and cocktail hours. He worked with us in choosing the different songs we wanted played during the ceremony for each section of the bridal party. He is easily reached and responds back quickly with anything you need to ask.

Tavi was very pleasant and accommodating, adapting his repertoire to our needs and desires. He both captured and enhanced the mood of the evening with his playing and several of our guests said things like: "Where'd you get that guy? He's wonderful!"
Celebration•Reviewed on June 26, 2017•From Los Angeles, CA
Tavi was a pleasure to work with right from the start. He was quick to respond to me to play at my Father's Celebration of Life. He was prompt, professional, he played all the songs we wanted him to play, and in an order that brought tears to many. What a gifted classical guitarist! Still getting great reviews from the guests that were there that this was by far the most beautiful celebration of life that they have ever attended. Thank you Tavi for making this day a truly beautiful one to remember.
