Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 1, 2011•From Bakersfield, CA
Vince showed up early, tuned the Church piano and did a fantastic job.I will definitely use his services again. Had an older crowd for this one, and he adjusted his music selections to fit the audience. It was very enjoyable.
Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on July 5, 2011•From La Jolla, CA
Vince is extremely talented, very professional and accommodating. He was presented with a difficult task and clients and worked tirelessly with them to get exactly what they wanted. He really came through!! The bride and groom were thrilled with his music. We highly recommend him.
Cocktail Party•Reviewed on April 12, 2011•From Brentwood, CA
He was wonderful. We had a terrible experience with the last pianist hired, and our biggest concern was professionalism-not a concern at all with this player. He was wonderfully talented, personable, and extremely professional. Thanks gig masters! And thank you so much "Pianist on Call"!
Celebration•Reviewed on February 28, 2011•From Thousand Oaks, CA
Vince Torbey, Pianist at Large, was very professional and friendly. He played the keyboard to prearranged and spontaneous music. He played cheerfully and made things beautiful. His repertoire was complete. He has a vast array of music and willingly shared it.
He was asked to play a song he'd never heard to accompany a singer. The singer sang it to Vince, accapello and he immediately was able to accompany him with that song. Vince came 1 hour early to have plenty of time to set up the keyboard and music. We would not hesitate to use Pianist On Call again and would definitely recommend him to others.
Thanks,
Marsha and Bob Rosenblum

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on January 30, 2011•From Studio City, CA
Not only would I recommend Vince Torby(Pianist on Call) I would insist my friends would be crazy to use anyone else. He provided the best background music for our 50th anniversary dinner party and when the grandkids requested a Taylor Swift song (who?), He accommodated them in a style that both amazed them and pleased the adults as well. And when the adults requested a particular tune to dance to he accommodated them as well. My son-in-law who is a special events videographer and has been to countless party's commented that Vince is the best he has encountered.
New Year's Eve Party•Reviewed on January 13, 2011•From Costa Mesa, CA
Mr. Vince Torby was a treat to work with. I hired him for NYE. His rate was fair, he was flexible, professional, and a breeze to work with. This was my first time hiring a Pianist, and was pleased with my experience. Mr. Torby arrived early, dressed very dapper, and had a smile the entire evening. He's is well diverse and very talented.
I would 100% recommend Mr. Torby AND Gigmasters for any event.
Thanks again!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on November 8, 2010•From Glendale, CA
Vince was extremely accommodating to all of our song requests, allowing us to personalize our ceremony and reception, which made our day even more special. Our event was outdoors, so Vince brought along his mobile piano system which sounded great. He also brought a wireless mic that he allowed us to use for both the ceremony and the reception. He arrived at the venue early to set up, was dressed very professionally, and entertained all of our guests with his talent. I would absolutely recommend him for any type of event formal or casual, he will definately add a special touch to the occasion. Thanks so much Vince! Nichol & Steve
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 6, 2010•From San Diego, CA
Vince did such a wonderful job of playing at our birthday cocktail party. His playing added just the right ambience to the event. He had a vast repertoire of tunes and was able to deliver music in any style. He was a delight to listen to, and we could not get enough of him! He was very professional, arrived early and set himself up without fanfare. Vince delivered exactly as promised. I would not hesitate to hire or recommend Vince for any event that might call for music. Thanks Vince! Olivia and Bernie
Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 23, 2010•From Monterey Park, CA
Vince was super accommodating to our requests and made every effort to make our day even more special. He is very talented and his mobile piano system sounded great for our outdoor ceremony. He arrived at the venue to set up ahead of time which was very good because I've been to other weddings where the DJ or live band arrive late and people have to wait for them to set up and sound horrible in the end. I would totally recommend him for any type of event wether formal, casual or fun. Thanks so much Vince!!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 11, 2010•From Malibu, CA
Vince was fantastic. He really made my wedding for me. He was the nicest, most positive, jovial, and talented vendor of all. He gave our ceremony a jazz twist, at my request, which everyone loved.
I had the crazy idea to serenade my groom, even though I'm not a professional singer. Vince was so encouraging and met with me twice to rehearse. It was a great moment for us both, even if I missed many notes.
Many people asked me who he was and how I found him. I happily told them. I will recommend Vince to anyone I know having a party of any kind, and hope to see and hear him again soon.
