Review by Christine H.

Church ServiceReviewed on December 16, 2023From Pennsville, NJ

I could not have imagined that I could possibly find a tenor who had such a masterful performance, with such such short notice. William performed at my mother's funeral and it was truly beautiful, meaningful and unforgettable.

:

Thank you so much, Christine! It was a pleasure and an honor to sing for you. I wish you all peace, happiness, and prosperity now and in the future. Blessings, William

CelebrationReviewed on May 10, 2021From Tuckahoe, NY

If you are able to secure William Gorton for an event, you are very lucky. We had the joy and privilege to book William for my mother's 80th Birthday. William sang a selection of opera and broadway songs as part of an event our family will treasure forever. In advance of the event, William was super organised, easy to talk to and very understanding of our family's specific needs. Honestly, William is an incredible talent and we were so fortunate to get to work with William for a very special occasion. William's voice is divine. Thank you, William!

Review by Andrea S.

FuneralReviewed on December 31, 2020From Camden, NJ

So much gratitude!! William made the music for my grandfathers’ funeral mass so special. He went above and beyond to coordinate with the church and work through some organizational challenges on very short notice. His talent is incredible and my family is so grateful for such a beautiful addition to the service. Most importantly, the songs and vocal style is exactly what my grandfather would have loved!

:

Thank you so much, Andrea! It was a pleasure and and honor to provide songs for your grandfather's funeral. I have done church work for many years, and this enabled me to communicate and coordinate with church staff to facilitate my participation within their parameters. I'm so glad you found me, and I look forward to any possible future opportunities to work with you that might come up! All the best, William

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on September 26, 2021From Royersford, PA

My husband and I had the immense honor of having Dr. Gorton bless our wedding ceremony with his beautiful voice. I can't tell you how many guests came up to me at the reception singing his praise. Along with the gorgeous string quartet ( Elegance String quartet) that we hired to accompany Dr. Gorton, the music for our wedding was everything I imagined and more.i highly recommend this skilled professional. You will not be disappointed. - Bill Petaccio and Justin Kennedy

Thank you for the great review, Justin! It was a pleasure and an honor to sing for your wedding, and I hope it remains always a fresh and joyful memory for you both! Best cheers! William

Review by Tara W.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on August 28, 2021From Marlboro, NJ

Easy to work with. Quick response. Arrived early, which made timing of when his performance would be easy to adjust since dessert schedule changed. Knew exactly what we were looking for as far as songs and vibe. Dressed professionally. Loved the back story to each song. Had the room in happy tears with how lovely his voice is. Everyone is still talking about his performance. Worth every penny!

:

Thank you, Tara! It was a lovely evening, and you all were a fantastic, appreciative audience! I hope and trust that it will be a wonderful memory for all of you, especially for your mom, the "birthday girl!" Best cheers! William

Thank you, Nikki! It was a lovely event, and your friends and family were so pleasant, appreciative, and fun to converse with. Many happy returns on you and yours, always! William

Review by Susan S.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on July 29, 2021From Avalon, NJ

William was unable to come to the birthday party for our friend Donna. And so he accommodated us by personalizing a tribute to her all on a professional video. He sang four of her favorite songs: Con Te Partiro, William is as good is Andrea! You Raise Me Up! The Prayer:William is better than Josh. And Wind Beneath My Wings.He is easier on the eyes than Bette! Here’s Donna’s personal thank you:”William Thank you so much for sharing your time and talent for the absolutely beautiful birthday concert. It was something I will forever remember and cherish. My favorite songs performed so perfectly. We were all brought to tears. What a special gift. Warm regards, Donna”??

:

Wow, thank you so much, Susan and Donna, for the wonderful review! You're making my job harder, lol, since now I have to live up to being "better" than all these famous people. Many blessings and best cheers to you all! William

Review by Samantha C.

MeetingReviewed on April 1, 2021From Princeton, NJ

It was such a pleasure working with William. He performed a beautiful rendition of Con Te Partiro for a retiring colleague, and everyone loved it! William was proactive and very responsive with our questions and concerns. Our challenge was doing this event and performance virtually due to Covid restrictions. He worked with us beforehand to make sure the technology worked, and on the day of the event, his performance went smoothly and he sounded amazing. We couldn't be more pleased! Samantha, Princeton, NJ

Thank you so much, Samantha, it was such a pleasure to work with you, and to provide a special moment for your event! Best cheers! William

Review by Dale V.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on February 16, 2021From Southampton, PA

Dr. Gorton was a joy to deal with from the start . He is courteous,respectful,and professional. I had to change the date of the event to Jan 14 . He was very understanding. The event ,itself, was a birthday surprise for a friend of mine who I've had the privilege of knowing for about 62 years..since first grade in school.. It occurred at a restaurant .She was very surprised and pleased . She knew she was getting lunch but not the musical performance before lunch !Dr. Gorton has an excellent voice along with an exceptional background. He was nice enough to accept my invitation to have lunch with us,also. All in all, a great experience.. I highly recommend !

:

Thank you so much for the lovely review, Dale! All best to you and Elise! Hope to see you again in the near future - plans are afoot with the new choir! Best cheers, Wm
