I hired him for my mother's 98th birthday to play for her at her care home. She was so. . . Surprised and loved it all. She and my family kept saying, "He's so good. He kept going from one song to the next and that he was so personable.". I strongly reccomend him for any event you may have. -- Mary M, Upland, CA, 1/2/2012

  • Excellent song choices, and wonderful performance! We met with Vince Torbey, who played for us as we went through possible song choices and everything was great! Come wedding day, we had some pretty big hurdles to jump through since there was no time to set up, but he was able to coordinate with our vendors and put it together so the music was live when people arrived! Perfect! Highly Recommended!!! Thanks!!!!! -- David B, Pomona, CA, 10/22/2011

As a bride, there are so many things to worry about. If you hire Vince, you will be doing yourself a huge favor as he will make things so easy for you. I would highly recommend him for your event!!! -- Jen G, Los Angeles, CA, 10/8/2011
  • He arrived on time, played the music that I asked, dressed in a tux & he helped make our event a great evening. We did a fashion show as the event & he had to accommodate us by playing softly while the commentator spoke about the garments. I was very satisfied with him. -- Loretta P, Los Angeles, CA, 8/19/2011
  • Vince did a wonderful job at our event. he was not given much direction but was able to read the vibe and play the appropriate music.

I was 100% satisfied and hope to bring Vince back for more events. -- Kyle J, San Diego, CA, 8/4/2011

  • Played for our sons funeral service and was extremely professional we gave him a list of songs raging from pop music to kids songs and he played them on the piano and in appropriate manner for the service. We highly recommend him and would use him in the future for other events. He brought a something special in the most difficult time of our life. Thank you very much. -- Omar I, Buena Park, CA, 3/23/2011
  • Vince Torbey, Pianist at Large, was very professional and friendly. He played the keyboard to prearranged and spontaneous music. He played cheerfully and made things beautiful. His repertoire was complete. He has a vast array of music and willingly shared it. He was asked to play a song he'd never heard to accompany a singer. The singer sang it to Vince, accapello and he immediately was able to accompany him with that song. Vince came 1 hour early to have plenty of time to set up the keyboard and music. We would not hesitate to use Pianist On Call again and would definitely recommend him to others. Thanks, Marsha and Bob Rosenblum Thousand Oaks -- Marsha R, Thousand Oaks, CA, 2/26/2011
  • Vince was fantastic! Truly made it a special memory. -- Fabriannie F, Riverside, CA, 2/13/2011
  • Not only would I recommend Vince Torby(Pianist on Call) I would insist my friends would be crazy to use anyone else. He provided the best background music for our 50th anniversary dinner party and when the grandkids requested a Taylor Swift song (who?), He accommodated them in a style that both amazed them and pleased the adults as well. And when the adults requested a particular tune to dance to he accommodated them as well. My son-in-law who is a special events videographer and has been to countless party's commented that Vince is the best he has encountered. -- Sheldon S, Studio City, CA, 1/29/2011
  • Vince arrived on time, set up and played beautifly all evening. My guests all commented on how much they enjoyed his music. Would definitly book him again for my next party. -- Robert M, Los Angeles, CA, 1/16/2011
  • Mr. Vince Torby was a treat to work with. I hired him for NYE. His rate was fair, he was flexible, professional, and a breeze to work with. This was my first time hiring a Pianist, and was pleased with my experience. Mr. Torby arrived early, dressed very dapper, and had a smile the entire evening. He's is well diverse and very talented. I would 100% recommend Mr. Torby AND Gigmasters for any event. Thanks again! -- Brendan T, Costa Mesa, CA, 12/31/2010
  • He was very easy to work work and very professional. I got great feedback from our patrons that had the opportunity to listen to his music. I will definitely have him back again to perform! He was great! -- Taylor L, Fontana, CA, 12/14/2010

  • Vince was extremely accommodating to all of our song requests, allowing us to personalize our ceremony and reception, which made our day even more special. Our event was outdoors, so Vince brought along his mobile piano system which sounded great. He also brought a wireless mic that he allowed us to use for both the ceremony and the reception. He arrived at the venue early to set up, was dressed very professionally, and entertained all of our guests with his talent. I would absolutely recommend him for any type of event formal or casual, he will definately add a special touch to the occasion. Thanks so much Vince! Nichol & Steve -- Nichol S, Glendale, CA, 10/30/2010

I would not hesitate to hire or recommend Vince for any event that might call for music. Thanks Vince! Olivia and Bernie -- Olivia W, San Diego, CA, 9/4/2010
  • Vince was super accommodating to our requests and made every effort to make our day even more special. He is very talented and his mobile piano system sounded great for our outdoor ceremony. He arrived at the venue to set up ahead of time which was very good because I've been to other weddings where the DJ or live band arrive late and people have to wait for them to set up and sound horrible in the end. I would totally recommend him for any type of event wether formal, casual or fun. Thanks so much Vince!! V+M -- Miguel A, Monterey Park, CA, 8/8/2010
  • Vince was fantastic. He really made my wedding for me. He was the nicest, most positive, jovial, and talented vendor of all. He gave our ceremony a jazz twist, at my request, which everyone loved. I had the crazy idea to serenade my groom, even though I'm not a professional singer. Vince was so encouraging and met with me twice to rehearse. It was a great moment for us both, even if I missed many notes. Many people asked me who he was and how I found him. I happily told them. I will recommend Vince to anyone I know having a party of any kind, and hope to see and hear him again soon. -- Dawn F, Malibu, CA, 7/4/2010

  • Vince absolutely made my Christmas party a total and complete success! Vince was on time, professional, more than accomodating, and even when it rained outside on his equipment he didn't miss a beat! He quickly and independently moved everything indoors hardly missing a note. The party was greatly enhanced with the addition of live music being played. Vince did not thrust himself into the limelight...he quietly became the limelight! I cannot thank him enough! I wish I could have the party all over again!! Thank you Vince! See you next year!! Sincerely, Linda Smythe -- Linda S, Irvine, CA, 12/5/2009

  • Vince was a great part of our wedding day. I am a musician and had always imagined having a jazz pianist for my wedding. Vince's work was musically impressive and tasteful. He accompanied three different singers for the ceremony and reception and worked very smoothly with all of them. For the reception, instead of telling him exactly what to play, I simply asked Vince to play some great standards and love songs. He selected just the right tunes to play for each aspect of the wedding. Vince was willing to travel out-of-state for our event and was also very reasonable in terms of compensation for his services. -- Jameson S, Phoenix, AZ, 1/3/2009
  • One of the only memories I have during the crazy day is hearing the beautiful sounds of the piano as I walked down the stairway toward my future husband! Wonderful and very professional! -- Bee T, Garden Grove, CA, 4/4/2009

Would book again! -- April P, Pasadena, CA, 1/31/2009

And at the wedding, he was fantastic - absolutely above and beyond anything we ever expected. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a pianist. I just can't say enough about him. -- Leslie S, Pasadena, CA, 12/10/2006

  • We'd like to thank gigmasters for your wonderful work. We hired Vince Torbey and he was marvelous, and very professional. He was very punctual and most of all, very attentive and patient and offered his expertise which made for an elegant, beautiful wedding.

He was professional, on time, and totally with it, I didn't have to worry about a thing.

  • Well mannered, professional, and was happy to play my request. I would not hesitate to book again or refer. Absolutly worry-free which is so valuable to a busy meeting planner. Thank you Vince! -- Melissa H, Long Beach, CA, 9/14/2006
  • Vince, I have received so many compliments already on the music that you played for our wedding, before and during/after the event! People enjoyed your music and the piano sound and volume. It was great to have you there and from what I heard up in the room and on the floor, you sounded wonderful as well. The entire event ended up being a great night and you played a huge part in the success. Thank you! We also loved the touch of our special request song for the lighting of the unity candle as well :) Christina and Dave - September 3, 2006 -- Christina C, Garden Grove, CA, 9/3/2006
  • He did a wonderful job for us. He arrived early to get set up, was well dressed and friendly, played the type of music we requested and was generally all that I could have hoped for. -- Robert U, Laguna Woods (92653, CA, 8/6/2006
  • Vince did a fantastic job for our wedding ceremony and reception. Our minister was late, but Vince seemlessly coordinated with him literally 2 minutes before the wedding ceremony to have all of the music in sync. He was really flexible in the planning for the event, he even played for us prior to the event in his own home to help us determine what selection of music we would like. Vince knows an incredible amount of music ... jazz, broadway, modern, classical, more. He is great with guests, very friendly and professional. He is great at taking requests even during the event, yet his performance is not overbearing or distracting in any way. I can't say enough good things about Vince, if you want things to go smoothly for your event then you want this guy. He is even reasonably priced! Thank you so much Vince, and I'm sorry I'm doing this review a little (a lot) late. Best wishes, Robert and Cat -- Robert B, Newport Beach, CA, 6/18/2006
  • From the time I placed a request, Vince was superb in every way. I was a bit worried about hiring someone not previously recommended by someone I know, but Vince deserves his 5 star ratings and more! Send him a request, and you will know what I mean. -- Alvina R, Westminster, CA, 6/2/2006
  • Vince was a great piano player and a friendly guy. We were totally satisfied!!! -- Monica R, Whittier, CA, 5/13/2006
  • Vince was great. I was late arriving to our house for the party but he had already set up and was ready to go. I appreciate his professionalism. -- Paula C, Pasadena, CA, 4/29/2006
  • Pianist On Call accompanied me at a wedding for a dear friend of mine. His professionalism was of the highest caliper; he is incredibly talented; and was dependable through out the entire process. He went above and beyond by providing equipment that we did not have, coming from out of town, and he made sure that we had the oppotunity to rehearse in advance of the wedding. I highly recommend Pianist On Call, and will use him again myself the next time I am in the area and require an accompanist. -- Rebbecca V, Pasadena, CA, 3/12/2006
  • We originally had scheduled another piano player for our corporate function; however, he refused to play tv show "cop" themes. We contacted your company at short notice and selected Mr. Torbey who was very accommodating about our request even though it was short notice. He not only arrived early and was dressed appropriately for the occasion, he showed me a list of theme songs. -- Georgette B, Los Angeles, CA, 2/2/2006
  • Vince was awesome. He was early to practice and to the ceremony. He had a very positive attitude and was friendly with us and our guests. He worked with us on our selections and played a flawless ceremony, meeting and exceeding our expectations. We had no worries with him as our musician. He even played a few jazz requests for my pastor and me after the practice. I wish I could hear more. Everyone loved his music! We would hire him again in a heartbeat. -- Brian C, Torrance, CA, 12/30/2005
  • Very skilled and delivered what he said he would. Would definitely use again. -- Duncan M, Yorba Linda, CA, 12/20/2005
  • A real pleasure to have in our home. Just a true professional and a great guy as well. Greg -- Greg B, Sherman Oaks, CA, 12/10/2005
  • I would like to compliment the pianist I hired through your company for my wedding day. He was very professional and my husband and I received a lot of compliments in regards to his talent. -- Karen C, Burbank, CA, 11/6/2005
  • Vince was absolutely incredible. His playing was exquisite and made our wedding ceremony beyond all expectations. His talent is unparalleled and he is the most professional musician that I have ever encountered (which is saying a lot, considering that we have hired several musicians every couple of months for the last 15 years). He is very easy to work with, kind and considerate, highly skilled, and extremely accomodating. His passion for his music shines in every keystroke. We plan on hiring Vince again and again for every event in the future that we have that requires a top-notch pianist. This is truly a remarkable musician. -- Kelly H, Los Angeles, CA, 10/15/2005
  • I can't begin to thank Vince enough for all that he did for the wedding. His music added the "something missing" to the evening that I didn't know was missing until he started playing. He is so friendly and has such a warm smile. If we ever need a pianist in the future, he is #1 on our list. If anyone we know needs a pianist, he's the ONLY one I'd refer. Can't wait to work with him again! -- Joey O, Pasadena, CA, 9/3/2005
  • Vince was great. Very helpful and accommodating. The music was flawless! -- Jennifer M, Corona Del Mar, CA, 7/31/2005
  • I can't say enough good things about Vince. Witht the hectic pace of planning and executing a wedding, Vince was the one thing I didn't worry about. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, we were in contact. He showed up early to set up his equipment. He talked with the minister about what and when he should play during the ceremony. After the ceremony, he played for 2 hours. I told him to pay what he wished, as i did not want to micromanage and had lots more to do. I received several comments from my guests about how nice it was to have live music. I definitely would hire him again. -- Richard W, Temple City, CA, 5/28/2005
  • Vince was absolutely awesome. He made the night an amazing success. He was dynamic, fun and engaging for our guests. We will definately utilize his talents in the future. -- Robert T, Burbank, CA, 5/6/2005

  • Truly professional talent who met every need of the party. The sound of Vince's music was absolutely perfect, and his timing was flawless when guests rose to speak. On top of that, Vince dressed with taste, lending elegance to our event. I have already spread the word about your website and will certainly use it again. I can't say enough about how happy we were with Vince. Regards, Donna Frederickson -- Donna F, Lancaster, CA, 2/26/2005

  • I thought that Vince did a great job at our corporate party.

I would definitely recommend Vince to others. -- Tracey B, Las Vegas, NV, 4/5/2006
  • He arrived on time or early. He was receptive to all requests. He was friendly. Overall our experience was outstanding... We would love to have him hear again at future events. We have recommended your to others because of his professionalism. -- Joshua H, Los Angeles, CA, 2/26/2005
