Review by Matthew G.

Private Party•Reviewed on September 2, 2009•From Washington, DC

Nadia execute elements of surprise and romance in my wedding proposal ceremony. She recommended an alternative to standard fare, introducing me to "Meditation from Thais" which met all the characteristics I requested in music. She took care to tune up so her very first notes were on target. She acceded to her role in my surprise, playing upon sight of my presumptive fiance's boss so I knew my cue to emerge from my hiding place. Nadia & her occasional flutist partner dressed up the beautiful Smithsonian garden, drawing a crowd for the duration of play. I recommend her where classy & sentimental are needed to show someone you care to architect a rare ambience.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on December 13, 2010•From Fairfax, VA

We engaged Nadia for a 70th birthday party event. The first thing we noted was that she arrived early and was set up way before the time of the engagement. She played a great selection, fitting for the event, and did so with style and grace. She has a great personality and easily mixes with a crowd, in this case a mixed crowd of younger family and older friends. We would certainly engage her again for a similar event.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on November 8, 2010•From Alexandria, VA

Nadia was wonderful! We decided to go with contemporary music, and asked her to play two songs not on her playlist. She was extremely accommodating and learned the songs and played them beautifully. She is very talented, and I would recommend her to anyone in a second.

Nadia was extremely professional and pleasant. She did not make herself the focal point of my event but was a well added addition. I would hire her again. Thank you so much Nadia!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on October 17, 2011•From Washington, DC

Nadia was my first experience with a harpist and I was thoroughly pleased with her entire performance and dealing with her altogether. A great person and a beautiful harpist. She will be reserved for any other company function that we may have if a harpist is needed and I will make sure to refer her to anyone that will need a harpist. The experience was absolutely great.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on August 12, 2011•From Washington, DC

Nadia was such a fantastic addition to our event. She was completely professional in our pre-gig contact and arrived at our venue on-time and ready to go. Her music selection was fantastic and our crowd enjoyed interacting with her. The boss was so pleased with her performance. I'd recommend her to anyone in need of a harpist for an event!

Event•Reviewed on January 23, 2012•From Potomac, MD

Nadia' performance was elegant and beautiful. She was very professional and overall added to the elegance of the evening. The party consisted of Doctors, Lawyers and many of professionals within the Washington DC area. Everyone was very impressed with her and her performance. Thank you Nadia, for adding to the success of our event.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on May 17, 2011•From Richmond, VA

Our overall experience with Nadia was excellent. Initially it took some back and forth phone tag to get in touch with her, but once we talked everything was great (this is probably because she is in such high demand). She arrived from DC to Richmond with plenty of time to spare. She was right on time with all her songs and they sounded beautiful. I would recommend her to anyone!

Funeral•Reviewed on December 5, 2012•From Frederick, MD

Nadia was wonderful. I booked her only a few days before my father's funeral and wanted her to play the Harpo Marz version of Take Me Out to the Ballgame, plus some other special requests. She learned the songs in such a short time but you would have thought she had known them for years. This was a very difficult day and she was sensitive and kind. I strongly recommend Nadia.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on April 22, 2012•From Stevensville, MD

She was great. I couldn't of asked for a more talented harpist. She stayed and played even after everyone was already up and as we were taking pictures. She was very professional and played all of our requests and more. I would strongly recommend her to anyone who wants someone who is talented, very accommodating, nice & professional. Thank you so much.

Nadia was fantastic throughout the entire planning period and especially the day of the wedding. She is a top notch musician and handled our special requests like a charm. She was especially excited to learn we are musicians and truly delivered a remarkable performance!
