Wedding Reception•Reviewed on May 7, 2017•From Arcadia, OK
What a great experience! Kent Pharaoh was a joy to have and complete our Scottish wedding celebration. Nice person, from the first inquiry to the day of the Wedding, Kent helped me make sure we had it all covered. Only with Kent's experience would we have known to plan and exceed, what we had initially hoped for. Kent went out of his way to engage and speak to our Family & guests sharing with them the meaning and background of his formal kill attire and Beautiful music. Mr. Pharaoh's suggestions for song selections and placement were perfect! Thank you, we will certainly ask can't to attend for other events in the future!

Robert & Sandra,
Robert, you and your groomsmen looked smashing in your kilts and Sandra, you looked very beautiful in your wedding gown. It was my pleasure meeting your family and friends at your Scottish wedding. Thank you for the invitation to play my bagpipes for your nuptials.
"Lang May Yer Lum Reek".

Kent Pharaoh has a heart for using his instrument for the Lord. He was more than gracious in playing for all three of our Easter services at Mount Carmel in Cabot, Arkansas and was willing to do whatever needed to make the event possible. He literally lives out the story of Amazing Grace, and I would highly recommend this talented man for any event that needs a bagpiper!
:
Andrew, my heartfelt appreciation to you and the good folks at Mount Carmel Baptist Church for your generous hospitality and the warmth and love extended to me while worshiping with you on Easter Sunday. Please convey to your orchestra and choir my sincere appreciation for making me feel welcome.

Mr. Pharoah did a wonderful job. I would highly recommend him. Mr.Pharoah waited patiently while I was trying to get things organized. I know my dad and all the party guest absolutely loved it. He is a very sweet and caring man, Mr. Pharoah plays from his heart. If I could give a higher rating I would. thank you so much for making my daddys birthday so special. I hope and pray we can do this again soon.

Review by Angela K.
Funeral•Reviewed on October 18, 2016•From Sand Springs, OK
Kent was very talented, professional and extraordinarily helpful in organizing the pallbearers at my Mother's funeral. He lead the casket in a song down to her plot most respectfully. He then did the "Bagpipe Walk-Away" at the end of the funeral where on the last verse of Amazing Grace he walked/faded away from the burial site over the horizon. Kent's performance both honored our heritage and provided a fitting final tribute as we laid my Mother to rest. I would highly recommend Kent's service for any similar event. He truly made my Mother's funeral complete for me personally. His performance lead to many future requests from family members in attendance.
:
Thank you Angela. Your kindness & respect is reflected in so many words. It was indeed a pleasure meeting you and your family as you laid your mother to rest to the sound of the bagpipes.
Her Scottish heritage will live on through you!

Review by DONNA E.
Memorial Service•Reviewed on May 20, 2018•From Oklahoma City, OK
We couldn't be more pleased with Amazing Grace Piper! Kent was great! Besides his mastery of the bagpipes, he was very easy to work with. He called and we corresponded several times. He played Amazing Grace and led the family in for a memorial service. He also worked with the Marine honor guard at the end of the service as he played them in with the Marine hymn. He was amazing. He is a very kind man and shows a genuine interest in every person he speaks to. We highly recommend him!
:
Thanks, Donna, for the kind words. We honored the life of Col. Rick Johnson, truly, a great American hero! A loving husband, father and friend to many. All gave testimony to his faith in God. Col. Johnson is now alive and living "Amazing Grace"!

Kent arrived early but waited for his scheduled time to approach our house. His attire was marvelous, authentic and neatly starched and pressed. His demeanor was friendly and cordial. My wife was not only surprised but very happy with his arrival. His playing was fantastic. The experience was much more than I could have ever expected. My wife and I will never forget his professional presentation. Thank you Kent.
