Feedback

  • Terrific to work with and pleasure to listen to. She was early, sounded great, and really impressed our guests. Book her! She's fantastic! -- Luisa C, Westbury, NY, 10/10/2009
  • I hired Emily John for a corporate event I was hosting in May and I can honestly say that she was absolutely fabulous to work with. She was extremely sweet and very professional. She was able to add that classic flair that fit the party perfectly. I would definitely refer her to anyone who was considering having a harpist. I hope to be able to use her services again next year. -- Norma A, New York, NY, 5/30/2009
  • Emily was always there to answer questions when needed, helped me arrange the entire music ensemble with little intervention on my part. Made great suggestions and played beautifully. Hearing her harp when I walked down the aisle brought tears immediately to my eyes...beautiful day!!! -- Kristin F, Brooklyn, NY, 10/12/2008
