Scott was very professional, engaged with our customers and provided the best experience we could have hoped for. A truly talented professional. He is first on our list going forward!

Community Event•Reviewed on March 13, 2017•From Le Center, MN

Scott was a wonderful performer. I heard many people complement his performance. He was professional and patient against a loud, busy crowd. He was a joy to listen too. He was a great communicator leading up to our celebration! We hope to work with him again in the future!

Thanks for the review Dan--a great pleasure to play for you! Erin Go Bra!

Funeral•Reviewed on March 8, 2017•From Sauk Centre, MN

Scott was very easy to deal with. He played for my father's funeral and during one of his songs my four year old son asked me if "that's God", referring to Scott? It was a funny moment during a very sad event. Scott was accommodating and professional, his traditional garb positively added to the experience. I highly recommend Scott.

:

Hello Nate, Thank you for the kind response, and for letting me part of this observance. I was especially moved by seeing your father was only a few months older than myself--a sad loss and again my condolences to you and your family. Sincerely, Scott Bartell

Funeral•Reviewed on March 4, 2017•From Minneapolis, MN

Scott was very patient waiting for us to get things moving, he was a gem, thanks.

Hi Audrey, Thanks so much for the feedback! I enjoyed being able to be part of the observance and saw a few old friends there too. I'm glad you liked the music, but I am curious about how I might be lacking on being accommodating? (i.e. 4.5 vs other 5 ratings)? I spent a lot of time ahead on the phone conferring--the original plan was scrapped but I carried out the new one; the timing changed such that I could not present a perfectly tuned set of pipes but I waited respectfully for the widow and offered condolences to the brother while waiting patiently--what didn't I do? Concerned, Scott

Wedding•Reviewed on June 20, 2015•From Saint Paul, MN

Scott Bartell did the recessional for our son's wedding and then led everyone four blocks to the reception. It was so much fun. Everyone thought it was just a great way to transition. Scott was great!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 26, 2014•From Saint Paul, MN

Scott was the exact thing we wanted for our wedding, he was on time, well presented and very accommodating. Without him the day wouldn’t have been the same. Many thanks to him from us both.

Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 30, 2013•From Plymouth, MN

Scott Bartell, your fabulous performance for us at our Boxing Day Party on December 26th, our guests will remember for years to come. Your piping, stories, and good humor delighted one and all. We trust we will get the opportunity to book you again for future events at our home. Linda & Peter

Wedding•Reviewed on October 27, 2013•From Minneapolis, MN

Scott was great to work with. We put the details of the performance together all by phone and e-mail. He did not dissappoint! The sound was great, not too loud and overpowering. I had people asking for his information to book him for other occasions. The bag piper was a surprise for my son-in-law and he loved it. Scott did the Irish blessing at the end and that was really cool too. Would highly recommend.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 21, 2013•From Hutchinson, MN

Scott was perfect in every way at our wedding! He was a great communicator, made sure he knew the details to get it all right, and truly made the atmosphere we were trying to achieve. I got tons of compliments and where-did-you-find-this-guy's... I would recommend him without hesitation. The songs were played flawlessly and at a perfect tempo. I could go on and on! He was a wonderful addition to the wedding and I could not see anyone ever regretting his presence. THANK YOU SCOTT!

Celebration•Reviewed on October 6, 2013•From Bloomington, MN

Dad's 80th birthday is today. He LOVES bagpipes and I could think of no grander a gift than a personal affirmation, at an imitate family venue; that being a family home. I live in Florida and working with Scott, who is in Minnesota, to coordinate this was quite smooth. I sure wish I was there to see Dad's face today, but as dad said it afterwards, "Best birthday ever!". Thank you, Scott!!

Club Event•Reviewed on November 11, 2012•From Minneapolis, MN

Scott is the consummate professional. He is a skilled bagpiper and goes the EXTRA mile to personalize your event. I have used him twice now. He is always early, prepared and has great communication prior to the event. Real peace of mind when organizing an event. Highly recommended.

Review by Zac L.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on November 7, 2012•From Chaska, MN

We were very pleased with Scotty. The bagpipes were a great touch to the ceremony and we received many compliments from our friends and family. Scotty also added a nice touch to the event by performing a traditional Gaelic toast at the beginning of the cocktail hour which everyone enjoyed. I would most certainly recommend Scotty to anyone else looking for a bagpiper for their event.

Funeral•Reviewed on August 18, 2012•From Moose Lake, MN

Scott was fantastic! He arrived at the cemetery before his arrival time and was preforming as the funeral arrived. His timing during the performance was perfect ! Thank you Scott. I will defiantly hire you again. Thank you Jim Hickey 320-267-4206
