Duncan was great to work with and was very accommodating and flexible as we discussed his role at the wedding. Very talented and obviously has a lot of experience. The guests at the wedding were very complimentary, too. I would certainly work with him again if the occasion arises.

Duncan was so courteous and professional to work with. He played for my mother's gravesite service at Arlington National Cemetery and everyone who attended agreed that he added the perfect touch to the service. Although the service date was set well in advance, it was not until the week beforehand that I learned we could have a bagpiper for the service. Duncan responded quickly to my inquiry and is well versed in Arlington's requirements. He was waiting under a nearby tree when we arrived at the graveside - visible, but unobtrusive and set the perfect tone for the end of the service. My mother was surely delighted. Highly recommend!

The bagpipe playing was exactly what my Dad would have loved the most about his funeral. Duncan played perfectly, was respectful of keeping a healthy Social distance & everyone complemented his playing.
My family has requested his service for further family functions.
Coincidentally he had performed this past year on a happier occasion for my uncle surprising his wife @ the school that they both teach at. The entire auditorium of children & school teachers enjoyed his playing.
I recommend every aspect of Duncan’s bagpiping, his ability to adapt to a somber environment for a funeral or a happier anniversary occasion.
Completely perfect. Thank you Duncan

Duncan was sweet, professional, timely and talented. I would highly recommend him to others. I am grateful and blessed that he was still able to accommodate our family in a difficult time for us, and in our country. Thank you, Duncan. ??

Duncan was a delight to work with from the moment we contracted him for our son's wedding (twp weeks before the event!) to the moving processional of "I Can Feel the Love Tonight". He welcomed the guests for about an hour and then the processional. He provided us with a list of his wedding repertoire, asked if there was anything we wanted and then eagerly accepted the challenge of the Lion King song. He worked with the planner and DJ to get the tracking back that was required. I would strongly recommend Duncan to anyone who wants an accomplished piper and little stress.

Wow! Mr Moore is the consummate professional. In spite of historic storms and flooding, he arrived at Arlington National Cemetery early for my parents' funeral on 08 July. He worked with Arlington to meet unexpected challenges and obstacles posed by the Navy Band [limited when he could play - we did not know this ahead of time]. Played beautifully; my dad would be delighted that he tackled "Anchors Aweigh" - certainly not a bagpipe-friendly tune. Family, friends, colleagues and shipmates were very impressed. Thanks very much, Mr Moore.

Duncan was wonderful. He stayed in communication with me, he got to the site on time, he looked great in his kilt. His idea of greeting the morners at the grave site really set a reverent, poignant tone to the proceedings ceremony. He did a great job on the background music after the ceremony and he stayed and added the solemnity to the time as the family looked at the other graves and chatted. Everyone in my family was SO pleased with Duncan.

Duncan provided beautiful, moving music before my father's memorial service as guests were coming into the church, and led the procession to the graveside in a solemn and moving manner. The music was very appropriately chosen and professionally played, and many guests commented on how much his music contributed to the beauty of my dad's celebration of life. We are so thankful Duncan was recommended to us and that he was available on short notice. He also was very professional and easy to work with.
