Charlie's Reviews

Charlie is one of our resident pianists and performs on our cruises on a regular basis. He’s always praised by our guests for his charismatic style and excellent repertoire. He adapts to the audience and tailor his style to make everyone happy. From a contemporary song to a timeless classic, Charlie delights and is a real pleasure to work with him.
