    CLIENT FEEDBACK:  

    Ted added elegance to the private dinner pary I held for my family. My mother who is older in age ususally does not like any background music. She called and said that the music was enchannting. My brother in law thought it was a CD before he entered and saw Ted. Ted played the whole two hours without a break. He played throughout our dinner. I kissed him on the cheek at the end of the night and hugged him tightly to express my gratitude as he had added SO MUCH ambiance to the event.

    Ted was great! Very conscientious, curteous and easy to work with. He showed up timely, and a played very well. I would recommend Ted to anyone looking for a harpist.

    Not only is Ted Nichelson kind, and professional, he is extremely talented. My wedding was so beautiful, and would not have been so elegant had I not hired Ted. I am and will forever be grateful to Ted for the outstanding performance he gave at my ceremony and pre-reception. I will always recommend him. Thank you Ted. Michelle Trujillo (Ramirez)
