Christmas PartyReviewed on January 3, 2011From Los Angeles, CA

JP was absolutely wonderful at my holiday party. He was 100% professional, and despite my being rather harried on the evening of the event, he was completely calm and helpful - set himself up and played perfectly all evening, and stayed longer than I'd initially asked, as my party ran on longer than expected. His music was perfect -- I highly recommend him, and will be using him again myself.

Wedding Cocktail HourReviewed on March 12, 2011From Long Beach, CA

JP played a our only daughters wedding. This as you can imagine was a very important ocassion not only for my daughter , our new son in law and his parents, but my husband and I. I had gone to great ends to make every detail of her wedding memorable. I wanted to se the mood for the most romatic dinner I could, and imagined a solo sax. JP was the most incrediably talanted and extremely professional musician. He went above and beyond what I had expected or imagined! Our guests were thrilled and are still sending emails and thank you's for such an incredible memory. I hightly recommend JP for any occsian that you would like to be made more special than you can imagine.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on June 6, 2011From Walnut, CA

My wedding was on 05/28/2011 and JP was the first vendor we signed with for our wedding. His talent was the major deciding factor for us. But not only is he talented, he was very responsive, responsible, attentive, and very professional all the way until after the wedding! JP will definatly exceed your expectations and I highly recommend him to anyone that knows what a saxophone should sound like at its best and loves the tune of a sax. I received nothing but compliments from the guests. He responded to every request even the last minute changes with a very pleasant attitude. I can go on and on but I'm over the word limit so I have to end here. I HIGHLY recommend JP!

We are very grateful for the opportunity to have experienced his lovely music, which filled our hearts with beauty and grace. We look forward to his next performance for another upcoming event!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on April 11, 2011From Moreno Valley, CA

JP is very professional and has great commitment even for small events. I truly appreciated the spirit and compassion he brought to my brother's 60th birthday party. Everyone loved his music and warm personality. He was flexible and gracious. I would recommend him highly. His repertoire is extensive in musical periods and genres. The entire booking and presentation process with JP and Gigmasters was user friendly, professional and more than met my expectations. Thanks JP for making our event what we desired.

J.P. was not only an excellent talent, but the most professional, and gracious people I have encountered. He was extremely accommodating, and treated our event as if it was his most important engagement. I will use him again, and recommend him without reservation.

We truly can't say enough about JP!!! Having him play at our wedding was truly an honor. Right from the start, JP was prompt, curteous, warm, caring, helpful, and very professional. It really was a pleasure working and meeting him. We and our guests thoroughly enjoyed his performance as JP made every effort to make it very special for our wedding. I would recommend JP with absolutely no reservations. JP, many, many thanks for going above and beyond! We really couldn't be happier! =) =) Sincerely, Maria & John.

WeddingReviewed on June 7, 2008From La Jolla, CA

Jp was both accomodating and professional from day one! My wedding coordinator was a bit over the top at times yet Jp remained flexible and cordial throughout the entire process. We live in San Diego and Jp drove about 1 1/2 hours to come and perform for us; he was on time and even started playing earlier than previously discussed. I would definitely recommend Jp for any event. The fact that we were able to hire him to play outdoors by the beach was priceless. Jp, thank you again for a great performance. When you become a huge success, I look forward to bragging to my friends about how you played at my wedding! J Pargo-Thompson Escondido, Ca.

WeddingReviewed on May 31, 2008From Laguna Beach, CA

JP did the most fantastic job with the music for our ceremony. I was very pleased with his performance, professionalism, flexibility and appearance. My guest were equally impressed with him. I also appreciated the fact that JP took it upon himself to search for the music of one of my favorite songs and learned it in a short time just so I can walk down the aisle to it. Not only will I pass on his information to my friends, family and anyone looking for exceptional music for an important event, but my photographer asked for his information so she can use him as one of her vendor referrals. Absolutely terrific...i would recommend him in a heart beat!!!

WeddingReviewed on April 19, 2008From Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

JP did a great job for our son's wedding! He came early to set up, was accomodating to all my requests including playing some CDs right before and right after his presentation. We used his PA system to make announcements throughout the evening. He was professional, very easy to work with and most importantly, his music was excellent! Radoslav & Gloria

I was so happy to have JP at my Christmas party. Several people commented on how nice the music was. He was very professional (even wearing a tux!) and very accomodating, staying later than our original agreement when the party went long. I will definitely use him again!
