Feedback
- Overall, we were very happy- she sounded great, played everything we requested, stayed late into the night, so if I ever need a pianist in the Indy area again, I know who to call! -- Barri F, Indianapolis, IN, 5/17/2009
- The music was lovely, and perfect for the wedding. -- Susan J, Franklin, IN, 10/10/2009
- Phyllis was very accommodating to agree to play just a few days before our event. While the music was mostly show tunes, she was able to add in some more traditional jazz upon request. I didn't look at the playlist, but will next time, to ensure we're on the same page (no pun intended!).
Thank you, Phyllis! -- Shannon B, Indianapolis, IN, 10/4/2010
