Review by Ramiro E.

Wedding•Reviewed on April 4, 2009•From Poughkeepsie, NY

My wife is of Scottish and Irish descent and loves the sound of the bagpipes. She kept mentioning how great it would be if the bagpipes could be played at our wedding, but also realized that is was too late to arrange it and that it was against church policy. With this being the situation Jerry was willing to work with me, he was very accommodating with our situation. He was a hit with everyone at our wedding and was a great surprise for my wife, from what I was told by my father in law Amy cried out of surprise and excitement and is going to kill me for doing so. Jerry made my wife's day which made my day to see her happy, I highly reccomend him for any event.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 20, 2008•From New York City, NY

Jerry is a great guy. Very friendly , personable and professional. I can't say he was the most skilled piper I've ever hired but he could not have been more happily willing to play ( out in the cold )and accomodating of our requests.

Wedding•Reviewed on November 8, 2008•From Tannersville, PA

Words cannot begin to descibe the sheer talent, personality, humbelness, and enthusiasm Jerry brought to our wedding! We gave Jerry a list of songs that we definately wanted played during the ceremony, and left the before and after up to his discretion. Everything was fabulous and far exceeded our expectations, we would definately reccomend him for any function you may have. Many Kudo's to Jerry!! It was also our pleasure to have he and his wife attend the reception as our guests. We look forward to hearing Jerry play again at any public venues he maybe performing at! Thank you again Jerry, for helping make our special day one long to remember! Steve & Lezlie

Really great all of my guests thought it "made" the ceremony.

Funeral•Reviewed on August 30, 2008•From New York City, NY

I couldn't have asked for more. Jerry was at the church for the funeral before the hearse arrived, and at the cemetery before the procession arrived. He researched on his own where to be and coordinated with the priest the timing of a heart-wrenching rendition of "Amazing Grace" as my father was being laid to rest. It was a sad occasion to be sure, but Jerry provided dignity and respect to the services. I would recommend him in a minute for his courteousness, professionalism, punctuality, and his sense of appropriateness to the occasion. Thank you Jerry... My father would have loved it.

Graduation Party•Reviewed on August 16, 2008•From Norwalk, CT

I was absolutely blown away with Jerry's entrance, appearance, performance and personality. He added the "wow" factor to an already pretty neat party -- and he was perfect!!

Jerry was an integral part of our surprise wedding and he pulled everything off PERFECTLY! Not only does he play beautifully but he is a really great guy and we're so glad he agreed to have dinner with us. I would highly recommend Jerry. He is extremely professional and accomodating and quite frankly far exceeded our expectations! Thanks again for everything Jerry. You're the best!

Celebration•Reviewed on August 12, 2008•From New York City, NY

Jerry was nothing short of AMAZING! He was a wonderful and unique surprise for my husband on his 40th birthday in the middle of his work day! Everyone at my husband's workplace raved about Jerry. He got everyone singing and lifted everyone's spirits with his beautiful irish music. My husband gave Jerry the best compliment when he said Jerry was "authentic" and "the real deal." He was a pleasure to deal with over the phone, arrived on time, performed the songs I requested, and made my husband's birthday extra-special. I will recommend Jerry to my close friends and family in the future. THANK YOU AGAIN JERRY!!!!!!!!

Jerry was very friendly and accomodating. He was patient with the "staging" and followed the musical cues for my daughter's wedding perfectly. His music and professional countenance were a wonderful addition to a spectacular event! I would have him back without reservation!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 3, 2008•From Manhattan, NY

Jerry Dixon, "The NYC Piper," was nothing short of spectacular. Perched atop a rock outcropping in full ragalia in Central Park, he brought all of Central Park South to a halt with his glorious piping. His accomodation of requested tunes and his own extensive repertoire made for an unforgettable event, one that my family -- and half the residents of Central Park South -- will be talking about for years. On a scale of 1 to 5, "The NYC Piper" is a 10.

The NYC Piper was everything we could have hoped for. He communicated with us in advance, played the music we requested and greatly added to the festive feeling of the day. I would recommend him for any occasion.

The NYC Piper did a fantastic job at P.S. 34. He was very professinal and his traditional Irish kilt. He engaged the children and answered all their questions.
