Dear Max, I called, emailed and texted you and you never responded my messages. I have never missed an event in my life but I need more information than just the date and time. For example, I need to have your address of the event. I am sorry you are not satisfied with my psychic services.

The minute I received David's message through gigmaster, I was sure he was the right guitarist for my event, and I was right. Dealing with David was not only easy, it was a pleasure. My guests are still talking about his talent, warm personality and professionalism. I would hire him again in a second, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a classical guitarist.

David was amazingly friendly, accommodating, and professional for our outdoor ceremony. He is truly talented and was willing to, and did, learn our special songs in less than two weeks. Thanks so much David! I'd recommend him to anyone.

David is a wonderful guitar player. We hired him to play for our daughter's wedding ceremony and specifically requested "Musetta's Waltz" as her processional. He arranged the piece himself and played it wonderfully. He really added the special touch in completing a beautiful ceremony. I would highly recommend him.

David was perfect. Personable, professional, responsive. We had specific parameters and we discussed options til we found the perfect ones. On the day of, he was plenty early and so relaxed, and sensitive to the timing of the ceremony. Our music snobs in the audience were very impressed wth David's talent, range and music selections. We were thrilled with David.

David is a true professional and very talented. My guests were delighted with the background music he provided - he seemed to know just what to play and when to play it. I would not hesitate to have him perform again at another family party.

We were very pleased with David! His music is beautiful, he's super accommodating, and very professional! He understood what kind of music we were looking for, even though we had no idea what specific songs we wanted. I Met with him before the wedding to discuss music selections and it was quick and easy. We used him for our ceremony, and would recommend him to everyone!

Mr. Galvez made my special day truly special.
weather was a bit of a problem but he was very accommodating and was able to change locations last minute. I was able to hear his music as I was getting ready for the ceremony and it was so soothing and relaxing that it helped me gain composure and it made me feel that everything was perfect. All our guests family and friends commented on how talented and wonderful Mr. Galvez was and truly enjoyed his music.
He made our wedding day feel special and simply perfect.
Thank you.
sincerely

David is a gifted musician, we would/will welcome his presence at any occassion where we want musical accompanyment. We were thoroughly pleased with David's performance and professionalism. There can be no question as to his skill with his guitar and knowledge of music appropriate for his instrument. David was with us for 5 hours and we never tired of his music - his intensity and passion for his music was apparent all evening. He capped a magical evening.

We had the pleasure of having David Galvez perform at our wedding. Communication was extremely professional and timely. His performance (guitar/violin duo) was amazing. Our guests commented on how elegant and talented their performance was. We would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Galvez to any future clients who would require his services. A+

What an experience! I hired David to play for my girlfriend and myself having no preconceived notions other than an enjoyable evening. Needless to say, David provided such a great soothing atmosphere to a truly romantic evening. I can’t wait for the next special occasion to invite David back. What a true professional

David Galvez's professionalism was apparent since our first email, through-out our phone conversations. He sent me recordings of my requests as they were being rehearsed which was one less stress for me. He played with one of his colleagues as a guitar duo for our wedding. The duo arrived at the church early, and began to play before our guests arrived. The music was absolutely stunning, and it made our wedding very special. A wedding is a once in a lifetime event, and the music will forever trigger that special moment in my life. I highly recommend him, and would love to have him play at one of our events in the future.

Wedding•Reviewed on July 17, 2018•From Queens, NY
David is a phenomenal guitarist and exceedingly professional wedding vendor. He learned several songs for our wedding – and perfectly executed them on the wedding day. He played bossa nova and Brazilian music during cocktail hour (along with Peruvian ballads for our family from Peru). Our guests were really impressed with the performance. Our only regret is that we didn’t have more time to stop and enjoy the music ourselves (bride and groom don’t have much free time, apparently). David was extremely flexible and easy to work with, as well as responsive to all emails and requests. We couldn’t recommend him more!

David did an excellent job and we thoroughly enjoyed having him perform at our event. This is the second time we have requested David to play at our NYC trade show event and hope he is available next time we are in town. We would definitely recommend David. He is extremely talented, very professional and a pleasure to work with.

David and his team performed beautifully at our cocktail hour. We requested that they learn how to play multiple songs that they were unfamiliar with at first, and yet they took the time to learn the sheet music to accommodate our wants. We would definitely recommend Avid Strings :)

David and his violinist partner were 100% the best choice for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour! He's very organized, and you can tell the level of professionalism in which he carries himself. From his quick responses and thorough emails, to their well organized website full of information it's all quite apparent! They have a plethora of songs to choose from AND they were able to accommodate our music request (a special song to me to walk down the aisle to). Thanks for making our day extra special!
