Wedding Ceremony
in Edgartown, MA
on 06/02/2012
"I can't say enough positive things about Harbor islands Duo. They weathered one of the stormiest days of early summer to ferry over to Martha's Vineyard for our wedding. They were professional, sensitive to our wedding requests and performed beautifully. Our guests were talking about the excellent quality of music and sound for our ceremony. I knew the Harbor Islands Duo was going to be fantastic, but the event turned out even better than I anticipated.
Thank you Charlotte for enhancing our wedding experience and for providing the onlookers at the Harbor View Hotel an evening serenade. "

Harbor Islands Duo’s Response:
"We really enjoyed playing for the Valentine's Dinner. It was a beautiful occasion and a perfect setting for violin and piano. We played a mixture of classical favorites and contemporary songs, and it was perfect for the event. We love playing for parties, as well as weddings!"
Valentine's Day Party
in Cambridge, MA
on 02/09/2013
"The Harbor Islands Duo was fabulous! They set the perfect atmosphere and our guests loved them. For the first half of the evening they played as a violin and piano duo. The music was so beautiful, and Brian and Charlotte played our favorite songs. We got a lot of compliments on them! For the second half, they provided an amazing jazz trio (Brian on piano, with bass and guitar). The tunes were great--perfect for relaxing after dinner. They are talented!
They were prompt and professional, looked great, and were ready to go 30 minutes before start time. This was our second event with them, and we can't wait to have them play for our future events! Great job!"
