[From the bride] "When I was planning my July 2007 Lake Tahoe wedding, my goal was to create an atmosphere of 'simple elegance.' I chose David as our ceremony musician because I felt that the cello fits that description. I got even more than I bargained for with David because he is incredibly professional, wildly talented, and very affable. David made everything so easy and straightforward during our planning process. We initially met with him and discussed what our vision was, and David was able to work within that framework beautifully. He also added to it by presenting a piece he had personally composed ~ which was incredibly beautiful and brought tears to my eyes. I wouldn't be surprised if "Once Upon a Time" became a timeless classic! Afterwards, when we started to get feedback from everyone, one of the most-heard compliments was for David and his ceremony music. He set the perfect tone."

To Whom It May Concern:

David Abramsky brought his joyful music to First Presbyterian Church in Petaluma for a concert in our “Fourth at First” vesper series. The program consists of a monthly event featuring a variety of musical styles, enhanced with a sampling of scripture and short session of prayer.

David played his cello, accompanied by a recording of himself playing piano. He took great joy in presenting the selections, and his smiling enthusiasm was contagious. Our audience loved every song, from arrangements of well-known hymns to the toe-tapping rhythms of Yiddish folk songs.

Not only is he obviously quite talented on both cello and piano, but his choice of music was perfect for our series. He did many, if not all, of the arranging himself, sometimes trading the lead between the two instruments.

David’s talents and music would also be appropriate for weddings and other sacred occasions, and could easily be incorporated into a church service. I highly recommend his program.

Sincerely, Patrecia Graham Music Director, First Presbyterian Church, Petaluma CA

To Whom it May Concern:

It was a pleasure to have Duo Uno as a guest during our recent Christmas banquet here at Calvary. David is charming, witty, and his abilities on both the piano and cello are superb! (Yes, he DOES manage to play them at the SAME time!)

Also, his ability to combine both the sacred and the secular aspects of the holiday season made for a thoroughly enjoyable evening, particularly as we had a number of guests in attendance.

His light-hearted, informal approach was not only winsome, but powerful! I would highly recommend David without any hesitation whatsoever. His ability to entertain is truly a gift!

Sincerely, Pat Murphy, Pastor Calvary Church, Ayr

• Beautiful music, perfectly tailored to our site and event. Thanks for helping make this a lovely wedding reception! -- Lisa Q, Palo Alto, CA, 3/7/2009
• He is an extremely professional person to work with. He's very talented and definitely added that extra touch at our wedding. He put everyone in the mood! I would definitely recommend him and/or hire him again! -- Stefanie R, Rutherford, CA, 1/15/2010
• David was amazing! We wanted piano and cello for our wedding ceremony, but the location did not have a piano on site. David's duet setup was perfect. He even rearranged a song for the processional so it would sound better. Lots of guests kept telling me how nice the music was. When David finished playing, everyone applauded. Most importantly, I didn't have to worry about the music while I had a million other things on my mind; David had it all under control. I couldn't have asked for a better performer. -- Tina P, Sacramento, CA, 10/3/2009
• Ok. Can I just say how perfect David was? He has a beautiful sound. He was SO easy to work with. He was willing to try anything, and really wanted to be in keeping with the "vision" we had for our day. We had him play solo cello for our ceremony and cocktail hour. When we were planning, he even took time out of a retreat he was on the help nail down some last details. And what a nice guy. He has such a big heart, you can tell. And that added to the specialness of our day because we knew he cared. -- Karin A, Calistoga, CA, 8/7/2009
• Professional and talented - a joy to work with! -- Katherine G, San Francisco, CA, 6/6/2009
• Duo Uno was amazing! Everyone loved David's music he added so much elegance to our wedding. The only thing I would have changed was to have him stay and play longer! Just Perfect! -- Layla G, Meadow Vista, CA, 2/14/2010
• David played at our wedding this weekend and we were thrilled with not only his musical talent, but also his willingness to accommodate our every wish. He and our pastor coordinated the wedding sequence beautifully and seamlessly. It was a beautiful, meaningful day made even more special with David's cello music. -- Sue P, Nevada City, CA, 5/30/2009
• David's cello playing was excellent. His performance helped make our wedding day perfect!! I highly recommend him!! -- Craig P, Cameron Park, CA, 5/2/2009
• Everybody loved David's solo cello which we requested him to play at our wedding. The little kids in our group were especially transfixed by his playing and I was impressed that he even knew the kids by name! -- Ed N, Napa, CA, 11/8/2008
• Wonderful! Very talented and a pleasure to work with! -- Caroline T, Gilroy, CA, 10/25/2008
• David's professionalism and talent made my wedding special. Thank You so much. Everyone enjoyed the music selection, and I didnt have to worry about a thing. He played for my guest as I was getting ready (and running late..haha). Thanks again for the entertainment. -- Alicias J, Modesto, CA, 6/7/2008
• Duo Uno - Cello & Piano Duet-of-One truly made our wedding special and memorable. Mr. Abramsky is a very talented musician. We gave him rather difficult pieces and he was familiar with them all. He also learned a special piece just for our wedding. Mr. Abramsky is professional and accomodating. I would score him off the charts if I could! Most of all, he is warm-hearted. It felt as if he was part of the family on our special day. -- Joshua R, Stateline, NV, 8/17/2007
