Review by James M.
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 7, 2013•From San Jose, CA
Denis was simply amazing! Arrived in plenty of time to set up for our 50th Birthday Party that was themed as a Piano Bar.
He incredibly entered the guests with an enormous repertoire and very seamlessly welcomed in those guests who wished to sing along!
Denis was a very big portion of the them obviously, and at every level he exceeded our expectations!

Cocktail Party•Reviewed on July 30, 2012•From Los Gatos, CA
I wish we could give a higher star rating because Denis was simply outstanding. He arrived when he said he would,played an amazing assortment of music, charmed party guests and was extremely polite. I really appreciated that I never needed to hold his hand or re-direct him-he simple new what to do and did it with the utmost professional attitude. I kind of do not want to share how good he is and keep him a secret.Yes he is that good.What an amazing 1950 Italian party we had and Denis was crucial to its success.
