Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on August 27, 2023•From Portland, OR
Linda, with Notes Of Celebration, was the perfect compliment to our event! Her hands made magic on her keyboard during our pre-wedding and cocktail hour. She listened to our requests and was an absolute joy to have around our guests! I would highly recommend Linda and her talents at the piano for any event!

Shannon, thanks for such a glowing review! I love playing the music the guests request. Blessings, Linda

Funeral•Reviewed on January 27, 2023•From Portland, OR
We could not have asked for anything more from Linda. Not only was her musical perfect for our celebration. But at a time where we in the process of putting the event together, she was responsive, professional and showed empathy to our situation. We couldn't have asked for a better addition to our event and HIGHLY would recommend Linda for any event where music is needed. Thank you again Linda!

Private Party•Reviewed on February 8, 2022•From Beaverton, OR
Timely response in all communications, arrived on time and prepared, dressed appropriately for the event, played beautifully, procured an additional musician at my request for the evening. Great to work with and all of the guests commented on how the professional musical performance added to the evening!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 23, 2013•From Portland, OR
There are times when you hire someone, and there are times when you hire someone special . . . with a special gift—and for us, it was Linda Smith. Our wedding vow renewal ceremony included collaboration with our cantor that turned the mass into a concerto . . . and the old, smoky classics provided at the reception were reminiscent of the war years and the rat pack—exactly what we asked for . . . played to perfection! Linda was obliging, communicative, arrived early, open to an accompanying cantor--the entire evening was magical with her at the piano. Our vow renewal was one of our most treasured evenings ever . . . much to her credit for setting the stage.

Wedding•Reviewed on May 13, 2013•From Oregon City, OR
Linda was a joy to work with, very professional but easy going at the same time. She arrived on time and set up quickly. She played outside at the ceremony and then moved inside to the ballroom. She played piano background music for our reception. The songs we asked her to learn for our event were done beautifully at the Wedding. We received so many compliments on the music from our friends. We thought there would be little to no dancing, but the grooms friends surprised us with an impromptu dancing celebration, complete with changing partners every 2-3 minutes. Linda rose to the occasion beautifully. Do not hesitate to hire her. Beautiful music, lovely lady!!

Wedding•Reviewed on February 25, 2013•From Portland, OR
Linda Smith is not only an extremely talented pianist, she is wonderfully professional and accommodating. She went above and beyond in accompanying my daughter who sang at our wedding and was flexible with her schedule.
We would highly recommend Linda for any occasion. She worked closely with us to help us set the right tone and pacing for our wedding ceremony and dinner. She offered her own musical insight and suggestions which really supported the feel of the day. She definitely was a part of making our wedding a truly magical experience.

Memorial Service•Reviewed on November 21, 2013•From Portland, OR
Linda was a joy to work with. I hired her for my beloved uncle's funeral mass and the reception following the service. She was kind and supportive during a very emotional time for me. My uncle was a Broadway actor, director, and stage manager his entire life, so we wanted Broadway show tunes played at the reception. Linda accommodated all of my music requests and played them beautifully. I recommend her highly and will use Linda again for future events. Thank you Linda!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on November 23, 2018•From Lake Oswego, OR
They arrived early and set up and prepared themselves. They were warm and friendly and also played every song we requested.
I would have them back again in a heart beat.
They did an excellent job.

Thank you Janice & Paul! It was our pleasure to play
the songs you love. We were honored to be part of
your Anniversary Celebration.
Blessings, Linda & Tatiana

Thank you very much for being flexible with the addition of new pieces and for coming in to rehearse with the students. Having an accompanist for this event made it so much more valuable and enjoyable!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 23, 2016•From Marylhurst, OR
Linda provided absolutely wonderful background music for our son's wedding reception. It was a shame it was background music as her performance should have been an event on its own merit. She arrived and set up ahead of time and played throughout the event. She was most accommodating playing requests of the bride and groom. We could not recommend Linda more highly. She is a highly talented musician and a very warm person.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on February 23, 2016•From Woodburn, OR
Linda did a fantastic job for our wedding ceremony! I had some music selections already picked out, and she played them all beautifully. For the parts of the ceremony that I hadn't made choices yet, she suggested pieces that fit well. We had a full Catholic mass, and she knew exactly when to play. We threw a few last minute changes in, too, and she never batted an eye. She arrived right on time, and played background music appropriate to the setting prior to the ceremony. No complaints! Thanks, Linda!
:
Thanks, Annette, for your kind words! It was my delight to provide piano joy for your wedding ceremony. Playing the music that you choose makes my job very fulfilling because I know it speaks to your heart!
God bless your marriage with joy!
