CLIENT FEEDBACK:
George was the crowning touch for my parents' 60th anniversary brunch. I was impressed with his professionalism, his repertoire, his outgoing personality, and his musical talent. He provided music for the brunch for 3 solid hours. I was so much more than pleased! All of the guests commented on how wonderful the music was. George researched, found, and played the song from my parents' courting days. They were thrilled. Thanks so much, George!!!

He was professional and accomadating to all of my needs as a first-time organizer of this event.

I recieved several compliments on the choice of entertainer from attendees and compliments on his selection of music. I will definitely use Mr. Gerich for future events and he comes highly recommended by the District of Columbia Bar.

George was incredible. His wide-ranging repertoire was impressive. All of the guests commented on how well his playing complemented the party. The only thing that outmatched his capabilities on the piano was his warm and engaging personality. There is no question that his performance was beyond magnificient. A fabulous maestro.

Mr. Gerich was easy to work with, on time, an excellent musician and very professional and personalable. Our event was low key and short in duration, so we did not have the opportunity to experience his wide range of musical selections. However, we would happily book him for another event in the future.

My wife met with George a couple of weeks before the event was extremely impressed with his professionalism and willingness to learn a special song if needed. When he got to the event he picked all the right songs to play and at the right moments. He even did a couple of last second requests for our little ceremony midway through the event. Several people commented afterwards how great the music was and a few people asked for his information for possible future events. We could not have found a more perfect artist for this event and give him top marks! Well done George.

I am very grateful that Mr. Gerich was able to accommodate us on short notice. I was extremely busy tending to other last minute details and I was not able to meet with Mr. Gerich prior to the event. When I arrived at the venue, Mr. Gerich was already in place, playing beautifully. He is extremely talented and professional. It was truly an effortless process. His presence added the exact ambience I was hoping for. I positively recommend Mr. Gerich for any event.

I hired George to play at a Cocktail Reception and Dinner Party at a local Resort in August 2006. George was a pleasure to work with and accommodated my every request. He is extremely professional in responding to inquiries, arriving, getting set up and diligently playing, and more than reasonable in the rates charged for his services. George is a highly accomplished pianist with an impressive repertoire and I would highly recommend him to anyone interested in lending an air of relaxed sophistication to any event.

George provided a variety of piano music spanning jazz, pop, and classical genre for a party at our residence. He graciously accommodated requests and was eager to please the guests. His musical contribution was just the right touch to make the party a memorable event. He arrived on time and played the entire evening with only one brief break. We would recommend George without any reservation.
George, thank you for a wonderful evening. Best Wishes.

George provided a fantastic sound for the reception. We had in our midst an accomplished pianist and she raved about George. He played music that crossed classical, popular, and other venues which was noted and allowed for conversation amoung the crowds.
Truly a special evening!
