Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 30, 2024•From Boston, MA
Bruce was amazing at our small wedding ceremony and cocktail reception. We wanted a mix of classical pieces, popular music, and some personal favorites, and he worked closely with us to understand our vision, even taking the time to find sheet music for several of our selections. Our guests were thoroughly impressed and frequently asked if he was part of the venue staff or how we had discovered him. We’re so grateful he shared his talent with us and highly recommend him for any event.

We highly recommend Bruce as piano accompaniment for any special events! We hired Bruce to perform at our wedding, and we felt he went above and beyond to create a great atmosphere. He performed all requested music selections from jazz classics to American songbook hits. He even learned a meaningful contemporary folk song for our processional music and offered to learn more songs from the artist, if we wanted.
His professionalism was evident throughout our wedding planning process. He listened to what we wanted, he was very responsive, and he handled all timing and setup logistics smoothly.

Bruce was absolutely amazing on the piano!! He played crowd favorites as well as a few Indian songs by request! He was so accommodating and was such an integral part of making our night so memorable and MAGICAL! His playing allowed us to have the perfect ambiance the whole night and not only were our guests and us impressed by his professionalism, we were so appreciative and in awe of his playing skills and his adaptability to play classic and modern songs as well as Bollywood/hindi songs as well. Thank you Bruce for everything you did to make our night perfect!!

Rehearsal Dinner•Reviewed on September 10, 2019•From Boston, MA
Bruce was amazing as the pianist for our son and daughter in law's "dinner the night before" at the Hampshire House in Boston. We had kept him in mind for years after he played for a private party, and he was perfect for this event as well. He played for three hours and had just the right mix of classic jazz and standard musical favorites, and the piano filled the room and created wonderful ambiance as an accompaniment for both cocktails and dinner. I highly recommend Bruce as a collaborative, creative, talented musician, who is able to accommodate any specific requests you may have. Our family and friends loved him, too!

Bruce played an array of music from the classics to the current cover songs. He was both professional and courteous . Bruce was set up and prepared to play as soon as we entered the venue. I requested that he continue playing for for an additional 30 minutes and he pleasantly accommodated the request.

We hired Bruce on short notice to play at our small wedding. He was a pleasure to deal with. As we requested,he mostly played standards from the Great American Songbook, but also learned and played specific Jewish and Latin requests. His contribution was very important to the feeling and mood of the entire day. Bruce is a consummate professional and a very nice man.
