Review by Bruce A.

Holiday PartyReviewed on December 17, 2023From Hinsdale, IL

Steven was absolutely amazing! We had a Christmas party of 50 people and Steven had each of them engaged and singing. Every guest left just raving about him. Our guests ranged from 16 to 70 and he was able to sing and play any song given to him. Will look forward booking him again next year.

Private PartyReviewed on August 25, 2019From Deerfield, IL

Steven was a great addition to our party. Everyone loved him! He kept the energy up, took requests and accompanied our guests when they had to write their own songs. We would highly recommend him for any type of event.

Thanks, Stacey for the kind words. Wow was that a fun party! Loved all the guests in their 'Broadway Show' costumes and accompanying them on their very clever and funny original songs, along with all the sing-alongs and requests throughout the night. Cool house, cool party and wonderful hosts...and guests! Thanks for having me at the piano. Looking forward to being of service to you at the piano at your next fun party. And what an added thrill to be able to hold and take a picture with one of your husband's Tony Awards!

Retirement PartyReviewed on October 3, 2016From Lincolnwood, IL

Steven Solomon was great! The party started slow because everyone was catching up so Steven played soft back ground music.Later everyone was into the music Steven took request and I found the entire party group was singing and dancing a good time was had by all. I would recommend Steven highly. He was professional, and accommodating to all my guest.

Thanks Jackie for the kind words. What a fun party you put together. Appreciated the nice comments your guests gave me during the evening and fun interaction at the piano with you and your guests. Great piano and delicious food :) Looking forward to your next party!

FundraiserReviewed on March 6, 2016From Highland Park, IL

Working with Steven was a pleasure from beginning to end. He promptly responded to my initial inquiry and since that point was incredibly accommodating, available and enthusiastic about working at our event. We were hosting a school fundraiser and he was nothing less than wonderful. His music was broad reaching, took requests from guests and read the feel of the night perfectly. We had other audio questions (I am technologically challenged) and his manager- who happens to be his dad- was more than helpful throughout the night. I would HIGHLY recommend Steven to play at your party. He was a fantastic addition to the night!

Thanks for the nice review Stefanie. It was a real pleasure working with you too and to providing the entertainment at your fun and successful fundraiser. I enjoyed meeting all the parents and school supporters. Also had fun with the variety of the requests that many of your guests had for me. And the piano at the venue was terrific too!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on January 4, 2016From Chicago, IL

Gigmaster provided professional quotes from various artists, Harpists, Pianists, guitarists, etc. I connected with Pianist On Call - Steven Solomon. Steven was great to work with. Once we clarified our respective needs; placement of his equipment, recommendations on the songs and the character of the audience ~ several perform in community theater, Steven was quick to propose that he would assist any caring to perform and he offered his setup to my son-in-law's playing of classical. I had requested Steven play certain songs at specific times, and he didn't miss a beat. I could be no more pleased than I was with Mr. Solomon's management of the event.

:

Thank you Joyce. It was a fun birthday celebration in the very nice and intimate private dining room. I enjoyed working with you and our conversations while we planned the music for your special day. I appreciate your kinds words and those of many of your guests about my music during the party. And I too enjoyed hearing your son-in law perform and talking with him afterwards about the music business.

Private PartyReviewed on December 31, 2015From Chicago, IL

Steven was fabulous to work with. Due to his extensive experience in playing for groups and parties, it was very easy to convey what we wanted from him, and the logistics of setting up the event was very simple. At the event itself, Steven was very good with the guests and involved them in the holiday music and was very accommodating (event went on for longer than planned time). We would happily rehire Steven for our next event.

:

Thanks Vivek and Nicole. I enjoyed working with both of you as you planned the evening. Congrats on organizing a very classy event at a special venue. Always a pleasure to be at Symphony Center and performing on one of their fabulous grand pianos! Enjoyed meeting everyone and having some of the guests sit with me at the piano singing along. I'll be looking forward to being at the piano again for your organization at a future event.

Steve Solomon was the sweetest, most wonderful person to work with. He is an incredibly talented pianist and our Christmas party would have been nothing without him. We appreciated his company and you should ABSOLUTELY use him for your event!

:

Thanks for your kind words. It was an honor to be a part of such an elegant and fun party! Loved the sing alongs and accompanying your family and friends on your special rendition of the New York song :) It was a pleasure to meet everyone and to perform on your fantastic piano in your beautiful home.

Bridal ShowerReviewed on August 25, 2015From Glencoe, IL

Steven was a tremendous addition to our bridal shower and we are looking forward to hiring him again in the very near future! Our home was filled with beautiful music that was played by an extremely talented and gifted musician who was more than willing to play virtually any tune requested--and without sheet music. Everyone loved his piano playing and we were truly entertained. I wished I had hired him for a longer time period. We would have had him play all night. Steven is extremely easy to work, very punctual and articulate in everything he does. He is also a consummate gentleman in all respects. What a wonderful musician and person! Thank you!

:

Thanks Nola for your very nice review. It was a real pleasure working with you. It was fun taking requests from your guests and seeing everyone having so much fun with the music and enjoying the very stylish top notch affair you hosted. I'll be looking forward to coming back and playing your beautiful and great sounding piano at another of your gatherings soon :)

Bridal ShowerReviewed on August 9, 2015From Chicago, IL

Steven was absolutely phenomenal! He was a great addition to my sister in laws bridal shower. All the guests were so impressed and commented on how talented he is. Stevens music pleased the masses and he played a wonderful arrangement. He and his manager are very professional and great at organizing. They were right on time and minimal set up. I cannot speak highly enough of Steven as a musician and professional. I look forward to having him play at future events!

:

Thanks Kaylin for your kind review. It was a great pleasure playing at the very high-end and classy bridal shower you put together for your sister in law. I enjoyed meeting and entertaining you and your family and friends, Thanks so much for hiring me and entrusting me to help make your party a huge success. And what amazing views of the lake front and city from the top of your building!
