The Surrey Pianist

Jonathan is a fantastic pianist who really added to the atmosphere of my birthday party. The music was the perfect background and was much admired by my guests.

excellent . just what we wanted , he is very flexible and accommodating .

If you are looking for a pianist to play at your next event - you should book The Surrey Pianist. Jonathan is an incredible pianist! He played at our wedding in August 2019 - he was very prompt, set up his equipment early before the ceremony and practised before it began.

Jonathan even learnt new pieces from my favourite film La La Land. I wish I could relive it all over again!

Jonathan played a superb set at our wedding on Saturday. He had perfectly understood our brief, and created the perfect atmosphere for the wedding breakfast. Several guests commented on how fantastic a pianist he is, and although he had left by the time the speeches rolled around he should know that he got a spontaneous loud round of applause when I thanked him in my speech! Thank you Jonathan for making our day so special.

Jonathan made our afternoon. He played all my Mum’s favourite tunes and all the residents said he was the best pianist they had listened to!

He was great with the older people and had a lovely way in his introduction of the music to be played which matched the audience!!

Thank you so much Jonathan! You made our day!

Jonathan played for a family dinner to celebrate my 60th birthday recently, and I cannot speak highly enough about him. He played a wide variety of music. He got into the spirit of the evening. He was very polite and helpful. He really was excellent, and if ever a similar situation arose again, I would have no hesitation in booking Jonathan at all.

The Surrey Pianist played at our daughters wedding which was held in a country setting. In the months before the ceremony, he took time to find the couples requirements and matched them perfectly. He had to travel a fair distance at the start of a busy Easter weekend and was ready, set up and waiting, not complaining about being tucked into the last spare corner. I imagine he is used to grander venues. The weather was perfect (I can't claim he can arrange that of course). However, this meant that the sunshine, breeze and birdsong streamed into the barn. Jon complemented this perfectly with his beautiful piano playing. He managed to perfection the timing of a modern adaptation of Wagners 'Hear Comes the Bride' (By Jonathon Cain), so that he was at the right point as the bride and her dad walked in. There was not a dry eye in the house. A selection of songs were played for the signing of the register and for a change of tempo, he played the happy couple out with a rendition of 'Bear necessities'. I received many complements from guests. Anyone considering using a CD for their wedding, think again. This is fabulous. Highly recommended. 5 *+

Very Good

Jon is an excellent pianist, and very accommodating. Highly recommend!

"Unsure if ranking of 5 = excellent (I hope it does!)
Jon was brilliant, was on time, spoke to me before and after and exactly what we were looking for! Will highly recommend his service to others.

Thanks."

"Undoubtedly the most successful and fun party that we've ever had and a large amount of credit for this goes to Jon ""The Surrey Pianist""! Everyone joined in with the singing and we struggled to get anyone to go home as they were having such a great time.

Jon was accommodating, polite and a brilliant pianist with an enormous repertoire!

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and will definitely be booking him again for any future parties.

Best wishes, Samantha"

Absolutely amazing we can’t thank you enough - my guests couldn’t praise you any more. You and Louise went beautifully together, nothing was too much your service is more than 5 once again highly recommended thank you !!!

Jonathan played the piano at our wedding registration and reception and was fantastic! All our guests loved his piano skills and range of music, and he was a pleasure to deal with in advance of the day when we were selecting our songs. Thanks Jonathan!!

Thank you for playing superb music on Saturday evening which totally complimented the type of dinner event we were having. Everyone was very complimentary about you.

Chloe and I want to thank you for your playing today. Several of our guests specifically commented to us that they enjoyed the music during the wedding breakfast, and we both agreed it was exactly as we wanted it, so thank you very much!

"You were superb! Thank you so much, everyone commented on the music both before, and after the wedding too!
Many thanks again and we will be sure to recommend you!
All the best
Gareth"

Jonathan played at our wedding and was absolutely wonderful! He learned 4 songs at our request and really made our day extra special. I'd definitely recommend him if you are looking for a pianist for any kind of event.

"Just a quick message to say thank you so much for playing on Saturday. It was a shame about the weather but thank you for getting going so quickly in the hall. It meant so much to us having that moment with you playing to just the two of us in the hall.

Hopefully we will see you again at another occasion and we will be back in touch at the next opportunity."

Jon played at our wedding in September 2017 and he was fantastic. We found him online and when we heard his version of Thousand Years we absolutely fell in love it. He is very talented musician and gave us many music suggestions to be played during the ceremony and drinks reception. Highly recommend Jon and would like to thank him for making our wedding even more unforgettable.

Jonathan is a fantastic pianist and went out of his way to play the songs that we wanted. He was so helpful and nothing was ever too much. I sent quite a few emails leading up and he would always respond very quickly. Jonathan was very happy to play for us from the ceremony right the way through until after the wedding meal. Jonathan played a mixture of his songs during the wedding meal and canapés and the music we had chosen for our ceremony was just perfect. Our guests had commented on how lovely Jonathan was and the songs he played.

Just to say thanks for last night, and the feed back has been very complimentary about the whole evening which was undoubtedly enhanced by your lovely playing. I thought it was fabulous to hear the guests singing along to your music. Can I make a booking for our next event please. kind regards and with thanks.
