Sylvia was so thoughtful and patient during our first memorial event. She looked stunning too! Her speakers captured her beautiful pieces and it was an absolute joy to work with her. I will definitely be booking her again for an event and you should too! :)

We had such an amazing experience working with Sylvia for our wedding day! She was so open to the musical choices we selected and even learned a new song which was above and beyond incredible. Sylvia’s harp elevated our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and our guests thoroughly enjoyed her beautiful music. Hearing the harp play while walking down the aisle literally had me floating on cloud 9. Thank you Sylvia for your kindness, professionalism, and talent! I hope to cross paths again and can’t recommend her more to anyone planning a special event!

Church Service•Reviewed on September 6, 2023•From Hauppauge, NY
The professionalism along with impeccable skill made MS. Kowalczuk the darling of our event. We marveled at her ability to adapt to our banquet church setting and she came through with wonderful selections. She arrived very early for preparation and displayed the style and class that was needed for this affair. We will use her again and recommend her for any occasion. You will not be disappointed.

Applause to that! Great job Sylvia. Definitely a recommendation to all.

We had Sylivia play during our ceremony and cocktail hour. We were initially looking for a cellist or electric violinist, but when we listened to her samples, we knew we wanted the wedding classics played in this enchantingly beautiful instrument.
She knew the songs to play during each part of the ceremony, and it was nice not to have to give too much direction. Several guests commented on how much they loved the harp.
She was even able to harmonize with the DJ during cocktail hour! We noticed from her photos that she was featured in the Sopranos so that was a fun fact to mention. Sylvia is professional, timely, and easy to work with. Highly recommend.

She was amazing! Not only was she on time but she was early and set up and warmed up! The music was so beautiful but not at all overwhelming for the event and venue which allowed us to talk and mingle throughout. The harp was so gorgeous to have in the space and the sound was superb! This was for a personal event but I will definitely be using her for a corporate event in the future! Highly recommend.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on December 4, 2022•From Williston Park, NY
I have contracted several harpist through the years for family events and working with Sylvia was a pleasure. She arrived early enough for the cocktail hour at my daughter's wedding on Long Island to set up and start on time as guests arrived. She had her equipment and wireless amplier so she could position anywhere. She did not require much of my time when everything was busy which was I greatly appreciated. It was seemless. Her musical selection was exactly as we had discussed. She played perfectly and elegantly.Syvia is very professional, easy-to-work with, and cordial. We received so many compliments from our guests. I will hire Sylvia again in the future.

I can recommend her to anyone for their events as she is professional, accommodating. She did the set up before time and she started on time. We will definitely hire her again for our events. If you are looking for harpist she is the real deal. I can ensure you that you won't regret taking her services for your event.

Sylvia was an amazing harpist, and, through her music, truly helped bring the celebration and my grandmother’s legacy to life. She could perform a vast range of music from Queen to Mozart, and her eloquence and skill brought a smile to everyone’s face. She was very accommodating and flexible with the unfortunate weather and limited space. Thank you so much Sylvia!

Private Party•Reviewed on September 26, 2022•From Alpine, NJ
Sylvia's harp music was so beautiful that my guests had tears in their eyes when she started to play. Although I had listened to the videos that she has posted on this website, it did not prepare any of us for how incredible she was. Her repertoire is impeccable, her professionalism was second to none. Sylvia completely memorized everyone and made the evening truly memorable. While for us she played for a small group of 20, her grace and skill can easily carry a much larger venue and group. I would highly recommend her and cannot wait to have her back for another event.

Sylvia was amazing playing for our wedding ceremony in the arboretum. She was kind, talented, competent, and professional from booking to the completion of the ceremony. We decided to book a harpist for our wedding last minute and we are so glad we did. Having beautiful live music really elevated the environment in a way that was truly priceless. Thank you Sylvia!

Sylvia was an absolute pleasure to have play at our Roman Catholic Church wedding ceremony. She truly made our wedding so special and set the ambience for the rest of the mass. Not only is Sylvia talented, but also very kind and professional. My husband and I initially panicked about selecting hymns, etc. but Sylvia directed us very well using her past experience playing at church weddings. We just let her know we wanted happy, joyous music and she played just that. I couldn't imagine our day being any more perfect!

Sylvia was the perfect addition to the bridal shower I was having for my sister. She completely took care of set up and breakdown and her music was beautiful. Our guests were so impressed with her live harp and she was willing to accommodate my requests for modern love songs to create the perfect vibe for the day. I would definitely use her again for future events! Thank you, Sylvia!

Sylvia was magnificent. She arrived on time, set up to play, and we all enjoyed her music for our full cocktail hour. As a prelude to our wedding I decided to catch Sylvia at a New York performance for Valentine's day. What a treat! We knew right then and there that she was hired for our wedding celebration. The guest feedback was incredible, Sylvia created a unique ambiance for the cocktail hour. We will be hiring Sylvia again for sure. I was very impressed with Sylvia's professionalism and talent. She played contemporary and classical music. Guests have been asking me where I found Sylvia. Wonderful! Thank you Sylvia for making our wedding memorable!
