Gianluigi was a pleasure to have around - personable, relaxed and professional. Considering I gave him so little to go in he read the party brilliantly and so many guests commented. Helped to create a relaxed happy atmosphere as I hoped.

We booked Gianluigi for my daughter's wedding in London. His playing was fantastic and so well matched with the event. I had told Gianluigi we wanted a summer feel to the day and he was so responsive with my questions and having live music really added to the day. He is a very talented musician and a lovely person to work with. Many thanks again. Highly recommend.

Amazing! Gianluigi's music was magical- really made the evening special. He was super nice to deal with and very professional. He arrived earlier than we booked him for to make sure he was set up for when everyone arrived. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone else for a special occasion :)
