Review by Jenn W.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 7, 2011•From Charlton, MA

James was amazing! He always returned my emails in a timely fashion and provided tips and reassurance when I was worried about song selections. James made my wedding feel more intimate and everyone remarked on his playing. He was dressed to the nines and was unbelieveably talented! Lastly, what I thought made him really great is he went through the receiving line just to meet my husband and I formally and wish us the best instead of just walking out when his time was up. I couldn't recommend him more highly and would use him again in a heartbeat.

James was just phenomenal! Very professional and accommodating. He was helpful and easy to work with throughout the process leading up to the actual event. James answered emails promptly and provided the specifics. He did an amazing rendition of my parent's favorite song. I highly recommend James. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 23, 2013•From Livermore, CA

James did a great job at our wedding! The music sounded beautiful and he even waited after the ceremony in order to say hi to us. He did a great job and I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is looking for a musician for their ceremony!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 7, 2011•From Sturbridge, MA

My original pianist actually cancelled almost one month before the wedding. I was panicked and James became a blessing is disguise! He was so accomodating throughout the process and very eager to make sure he fulfilled our requests for the ceremony music. He also offered some very original ideas that complimented our ceremony beautifully! I heard wonderful things from my guests... even when there was a lull, he filled in the gaps! I would definitely recommend James as a dedicated, talented, and enthusiastic entertainer to other people!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on December 24, 2011•From Boston, MA

James was wonderful at the wedding. I had two special requests for the procession and the recessional. James already new the Beethoven 'Pathetique' piece I wanted, and he said that he was happy to find and learn 'Jerusalem' by Hubert Parry. He charged a nominal fee for buying and learning the latter piece, which I appreciated greatly. The guests thought that he played beautifully, and really added to the atmosphere of the ceremony. Thanks James!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on May 29, 2011•From Sturbridge, MA

James was absolutely perfect for my parents 50th anniversary party - exactly what we were looking for. He was extremely professional, came early to set up and played beautifully - he added so much to the gathering. We requested a particular piece that he didn't have on his play list, but learned it for the event and it sounded wonderful. Several of our guests, including the guests of honor, commented on the music and asked where we found James. We of course let them all know about Gigmasters. I would highly recommend James for anyone looking for entertainment. We were extremely pleased with the performance and would not hesitate to hire James again. A+++++

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 30, 2010•From Falmouth, MA

We were happy with James. He went out of his way to learn extra songs to accomdate our mass and brought his own keyboard when what we thought was a piano turned out to be an organ. Overall we were very happy with James and feel comfortable recommending him.

Resort Event•Reviewed on June 13, 2010•From Nashua, NH

James was easy to work with. As a clasical pianist he graciously agreed to play Elton John and James Taylor songs for us. He arrived on time and worked with an out-of-tune piano being a pro that he was. His music enhanced our rehearsal dinner. I would recommend him to anyone.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 19, 2015•From Pacific Grove, CA

James was easy to work with, very professional and very talented. We requested a specific song that he did not already know, and he learned it for the ceremony. His music was beautiful—exactly what we'd hoped for! My father commented afterwards that he was a very pleasant person to talk to.
