Anniversary Party•Reviewed on August 13, 2016•From Pittsburgh, PA
I strongly encourage everyone to read this review of the most skilled, professional, and truly passionate pianist that my wife and I could have ever had to celebrate our anniversary night. From the very first moment I spoke with Claudia her professionalism shined. Her performance was a surprise that I arranged for my wife. Claudia was extremely personable and stayed in constant contact with me throughout the planning process. Her performance left my wife in tears of happiness at many points throughout the evening. Without a doubt, we will be hiring Claudia again in the future to perform for us. Thank you, Claudia!!!

Claudia, Passionate Pianist was amazing...all my guests commented she is a "machine" from stop to finish during the event Claudia played without a break, it was beautiful.
Excellent communication throughout the pre-event and during, she even extended the night by an hour for us because she is that good.
Claudia makes every effort to ensure satisfaction and her skills are superior to anything I have seen.

This is the second time that I have had Claudia perform in my home. I would not use ANYONE ELSE. Claudia brings more than beautiful music (which make my guests stop and smile), her warm personality adds a layer to my parties that people talk about well after the party ends.
You can hire someone to play piano music, or you can hire a true entertainer like Claudia, she is exquisite. Please feel free to email me if you have any questions or would like a personal reference. dasnyder@outlook.com

Rehearsal Dinner•Reviewed on August 14, 2017•From Pittsburgh, PA
OMG! There isn't enough space here to do justice to the exceptional experience that you will have with the Passionate Pianist. Claudia Sanchez' artistry is without question. Her care and attention to details in advance, the level of customer service, are all something to which we should aspire. If you are planning a special evening or other event, Claudia should be your first consideration. Claudia just performed at my son's wedding rehearsal dinner and it was amazing. Thank you, Claudia, for creating an evening that we and our guests will never forget.

Claudia was very focused on details concerning music selection for our wedding ceremony. I am so appreciative of her efforts to make everything perfect! It is so difficult to find quality/professional people to help you through the wedding planning process. I can honestly say that without a doubt, Claudia was # 1 out of all our other wedding vendors (photographer, wedding planner, etc.) in terms of caring about her work product and making sure we got exactly what we wanted. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pianist for their wedding.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 26, 2013•From Sewickley, PA
Claudia was not only professional, but very warm and kind. She strove from start to finish to achieve exactly what my husband and I wanted, and also took requests from my mother for the cocktail hour. We had trouble lighting our candles for the candle ceremony, and she was able to transition/repeat songs to cover the issue, without leaving gaps in the ceremony. I would not hesitate to hire her again for any other event and would fully recommend her to a friend for theirs. She went over and above in every category, not only displaying pure talent at playing the piano, but real passion, as well. Her name, "passionate pianist" truly describes her.

Graduation Party•Reviewed on May 9, 2012•From Pittsburgh, PA
I was ready to hire Claudia after our FIRST email to each other, in which she displayed so much warmth and enthusiasm to be a part of my party. Claudia is a gifted performer, her credentials explain that, but she went above and beyond, learning a new song at my request only days prior to the event. On the day of, she gave me her cell phone number and told me to please call her if anything was needed last minute and she would stop at a convenience store for me !! How many performance artists are willing to stop and grab the BIG bag of ice for you while in route?! Simply amazing, I feel like I made a new friend, hire her! -Daniel Snyder (danielappleseed@gmail.com)

Retirement Party•Reviewed on April 11, 2015•From Monroeville, PA
Our guests raved about Claudia! She went out of her way to work with me before the event, scoped the venue on her own, didn't take breaks, and played what we requested beautifully. She is so reasonably price for what she did. I recommend her to everyone. Even our event bartender said she was the best the country club ever had and he took her business card to share with customers.

Claudia's music was absolutely beautiful. We appreciated her attention to detail and dedication to help make the wedding ceremony music memorable. She played songs of our choice and her extensive repertoire of songs helped us choose just the right songs for our wedding. She began a continuous prelude of songs 1/2 hour before the ceremony, giving our guests beautiful music to listen to as they were getting seated. We were also able to choose various songs for the different sections of the ceremony. I would definatlely recommend Claudia and would call on her again.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 24, 2012•From Cooksburg, PA
We had Claudia Sanchez play for our wedding reception, and we were very happy with the whole experience. She has an amazing repertoire of songs to choose from--we liked that we could include American standards and pop music selections with tangos, classical, and traditional music. She is also very warm, helpful, and accessible. The music was beautiful and created just the right ambiance for our relaxed gathering of friends and family. Many of our guests told me they enjoyed it. I would highly recommend Claudia and would hire her again.

Claudia was extremely helpful in assisting us with make the final decisions on our song selections. She even went the extra mile and found sheet music for the one of the songs she didn't have, (which was surprising because she has a huge song library) and played it beautifully during the ceremony. She even made sure she played the desired version we wanted for each of the songs and she played beautifully! She made the entire ceremony feel elegant and the music timing flowed perfectly with the ceremony. She was extremely friendly to all of our family and friends and everyone loved the music. She was very organized and was ready to go upon arrival! GREAT JOB!

Awards Night Party•Reviewed on July 21, 2015•From Pittsburgh, PA
Claudia, the Passionate Pianist, is really the # 1 event pianist. She was awesome from the first talk, to the very end of our event. She added professionalism, elegance, charm, and of course, the most beautiful and wide variety of music. What a pleasure! I cannot wait to hire her again, and again for the next events. I recommend her over any other musician. Fantastic, truly beyond words!
