Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 28, 2012•From Arlington, VA
Lisa was the ultimate professional. She arrived extra early, dressed classy and was very easy to work with during the event. I never had to "manage" Lisa because she is experienced and savvy enough to know when to start/stop (during speeches). Her piano playing and voice are extraordinary. Everyone loved her, and I would (and will) hire her again in the future when I have a need for piano music. I hope she will be available, since I know that her schedule fills up quickly. A++++

Lisa not only met our expectations, but exceeded them. She was early, prepared and very personable. What a joy! Many of our guests wanted to know all about her and how they, too, could book her for their events. We have had many live performances in our home, but she has clearly set herself apart from the others! We highly recommend her!

I would highly recommend Lisa Matas. Her skills in both playing the piano and singing to a vast collection of songs were top notch. She is very accomodating and quickly responded to our e-mail exchanges. Everyone at the party was impressed and the evening was a hit due in part to the presence of Lisa. I'm very grateful for Lisa making the extra effort in coming to our home. She agreed to perform at our home but was up front that she was flying in from out of town on the day of the event and delays or cancellation could occur. I choose to take the risk and although the unexpected snow added another risk, Lisa made it to our home promptly.

This was the third time in 3 years we have had Lisa entertain at our parties. She is wonderful! Everyone, young and old, has a great time listening and joining in song with her. I can't say enough.

Lisa played (and sang) at a cocktail party in our home full of loud and boisterous friends. She was early, prepared and talented - a great place to start. She filled our home with music and song spanning the American songbook, pop and jazz. We've already had several friends comment what a great party in general but what a wonderful surprise to have live music. This was my first booking through gigmaster and I'm very pleased with the results. I would absolutely have Lisa play at our home or other venue. She clearly has talents beyond what we employed and we feel lucky to have had her entertain our home.

Lisa was fantastic. We felt very lucky to have been able to engage a musician of her caliber to entertain us at my husband's 65th birthday party. She is a highly talented vocalist and pianist, very professional, charming, and attractive. Five stars!!!

Lisa was very cooperative, collaborative, flexible and accommodating from the very start of our contact with her about our event. She was willing to play songs we selected for our dad and was willing to accompany my daughter on the flute. Lisa and my daughter only had 15 minutes prior to the event to practice and they performed together extremely well.
I know that three of our guests have already asked for Lisa's contact information for their future events. We are extremely happy we found her and are very very satisfied with her performance and professionalism.

Lisa was terrific! What a wonderful and talented vocalist and pianist she is! We were so very pleased to have her entertain us at my partner's surprise birthday party. She was prompt, accomodating, and just a "joy" to listen to. Our guests raved about how much they enjoyed the pianist! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for quality entertainment!

My relationship with Lisa started on the day I hired her. From this day forward (over a 10 week period), she was "involved" with planning the musical aspect of our occasion and only in helpful ways! She checked in with me periodically to see how planning was going, if I had any particular requests, and along the way, if I was still happy with the musical selections. She provided me some lyrics which were helpful for our sing-a-long. Lisa was a tremendous hit at our party and very sensitive as to when to play what kind of music. Aside from her professional saavy, she is an incredible piano player with an incredible voice.

Lisa Matas was perfect for our party. She arrived early, began on time, had a great selection of music for the occasion, and accommodated two vocal performers at the party. She was pleasant, patient, and flexible with requests and arrangements needed. I appreciate her time and talent. I liked her personally and professionally and will use her services again.

Simply put, Lisa was fantastic from start to finish. She was very responsive during the booking process and kept in close communication in the days leading up to our event. She arrived ontime, looked specatacular and played beautifully. I was sorry to see her go at the end of the evening.
