Review by Patrick M.

Church Service•Reviewed on October 27, 2026•From New Haven, CT

Jerry contributed wonderfully to our Reformation Day service, from the 12-minute prelude and march inside at the beginning of the service, to the postlude and marching everyone back outside. The congregation really loved having him, and it was a big success. A few of us were disappointed that he just played a repetitive warmup tune for the entirety of the prelude. I had expected a series of tunes, and was surprised to hear the same phrase over and over for 12 minutes. Whatever--he's a lovely person, and he provided a much appreciated contribution to the event.

Jerry is fantastic and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a bagpiper to perform at their event. He is a great guy and was very communicative leading up the event, arrived early, performed even better than expected and we couldn't have asked for a better person to help us with our ceremony. Jerry gets my wholehearted endorsement.

Funeral•Reviewed on October 6, 2026•From Paramus, NJ

Jerry was fantastic to work with, from start to finish. We had a double funeral with some ever changing logistics, and Jerry handled it with ease. His playing was beautiful, a perfect send-off for our loved ones. I highly recommend Jerry for any occasion, you will be happy with him as we were. Thank you Jerry for making a difficult situation a little more tolerable.

Jerry was quick to respond to my questions and he kept me posted on his arrival time day of the event. He was patient with guests who wanted to take a picture with him. His playing was impressive and I would recommend him to others hands-down. Thank you Jerry!

Memorial Service•Reviewed on August 3, 2026•From New York City, NY

Jerry was the perfect choice for our funeral as scattering. He was communicative, responsive to suggestions and contributed a wealth of information as we planned our event. Jerry is more than a musician. He is a kind and gentle guide through this process. We were thrilled to have him accompany us. If I ever have a need, I would hire him in a heartbeat again.

Wedding•Reviewed on August 17, 2025•From Danbury, CT

The NYC Bag Piper was AWSOME. It has been a tradition in our family to have a Bag Piper play at family weddings By far the NYC Bag Piper was the best in all the years of wedding I have attended. He is extremely talented, friendly and accommodating. If you need a piper he is the guy and a tremendous presence. Robert Messemer

Jerry was tremendous and worked very well with the church's Music Director. He was, in short, a hit! He made a somber event a memorable and sacred one.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 18, 2024•From New York City, NY

Jerry was so fabulous! He was easy to communicate with, and pivoted easily with a change of plans. The wedding guests really enjoyed having his music after the wedding, and he walked everyone to the location where they boarded buses for the reception. Everything was flawless and I would highly recommend him!
