Grigore was excellent from start to finish! He prepared some songs on request and sang so beautifully. My dad absolutely loved all the songs Grigore sang. He was polite, kind and very professional!! Just brilliant.

Colin "The Tartan Tenor" was amazing everyone at the wedding said they really enjoyed him. After the meal can be abit of a slump and he certainly helped to get the wedding going again. His choice of songs got people dancing and I was so pleased that he agreed to do Walking on Waves as his last one as it is the brides favourite and certainly made the whole thing more special to her. Definitely would recommend him and use him again. Thanks Colin 😊

We hired Colin for our wedding as a Ceilidh caller and I couldn’t recommend him more! So patient, especially with an inexperienced Welsh crowd, but it went down a storm.

We booked Colin's services for a Burns Night Supper in the Combined Mess of an MoD establishment and was not disappointed. Having been left high and dry by bands cancelling bookings or arriving late for functions in the past, I have to say Colin put me at my ease straight away. His communication was excellent from the outset of the booking. His warm, patient and generous nature on the night added to the atmosphere. His skill in guiding a collection of very "novice" dancers was invaluable. Suffice to say, a fantastic time was had by all and I would not hesitate in recommending his services to anyone looking for (in my opinion) a much better alternative to a conventional ceilidh band.

Harry sang at my mums funeral and I have to say that he made the whole church service beautiful. His voice is superb and we had so many people comment after the service as to just how wonderful he was. Thanks Harry - you were amazing!

Grigore was always reassuringly prompt in his replies to our preparatory questions and pitched his performance perfectly to the occasion and venue. We were so pleased with the outcome and everyone enjoyed his contribution to our evening.

Brilliant! Great communication before, arrived early, easy going, amazing communication, catered to our needs, got an 80 year old granny dance four dances, and surprised us with a serenade. Cannot recommend Colin more!

I booked Colin, The Tartan Tenor for a small ceilidh and I couldn't recommend him highly enough. Excellent communication throughout the booking, understanding when I had difficulty with venue booking and accomdating with specific song requests. He was excellent at guiding the group through our ceilidh, both professional and lots of fun - he really made our event highly enjoyable. Our group are already discussing booking with him again for next year. Thanks Colin!

Russell was absolutely brilliant from start to finish, a genuine joy to work with who simultaneously entranced and delighted each and every one of us. His rendition of Bring Him Home from Les Miserables was the crowning glory of a terrific evening!

Grigore's performance was amazing and thoroughly enjoyed by my very poorly wife, myself and all our guests. Grigore willingly extended his performance to include both extra opera and modern songs. Numbers, backed by his guitar playing, were especially appreciated. A wonderful afternoon was had by all.

Panos had assured me prior to booking that he was familiar with the Mass setting we were using for our wedding and could sight read in any case. Unfortunately, however, this was not evident from his performance. The two other voices and organist felt that he didn’t know the music and wasn’t able to sight read it sufficiently. They found it difficult to keep the music flowing, given he was guessing so much of his vocal line and in some places not singing at all. At times, our organist had to fill in for Panos. Encore payment is online but Panos asked for cash payment – an ask that may have been in error but didn't strike me as terribly professional. Panos was quick to respond to requests and questions via Encore and email, but the performance unfortunately didn't live up to his eagerness and the capability he had promised.

We are so pleased we booked Harry to sing at our dad's funeral service. He sang Ave Maria and Nessun Dorma beautifully and bought happy tears to our eyes as our dad always sang this at parties. Harry really helped us give our dad the send off he deserved!

Grigore is an absolute professional, who rocked up with time to spare, gave updates on progress and was very accommodating with what we wanted. The voice and talent he has are amazing and I won't hesitate to book him again!

Harry sang at funeral service I arranged and lifted the whole event with his magnificent voice. He is not just a wonderful singer but also highly professional and personable and I would not hesitate in recommending him.

Yuri came to sing at my husband's 50th birthday party. It was a surprise not only for my husband but for everyone at the party. I couldn't believe a real tenor was singing in our garden, it was such a privilege to hear someone with such talent at such close proximity. We were enchanted for the whole duration, even some of the smaller children sat down to listen! My husband said it was the best and least expected present ever, so we are all super happy. We not only enjoyed the amazing voice but also the ability to get into the characters of the arias, from the sad 'e lucevan le stelle to the funny 'la donna e' mobile'. And the amazing version of 'nessun dorma' at the end, we didn't want it to end! Thank you so much Yuri, we thoroughly enjoyed every single moment and I hope we have the chance to hear your beautiful voice again soon.
