WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING……

“Denise is a beautiful woman with so much talent. She listened to my music playlist request and delivered everything. She has a lovely presence and performed amazingly. My guests were so happy and some were actually singing along. I couldn’t have asked for more. And, this process was a breeze and communication with Denise was immediate and easy. Thank you for making my event perfect.

“Denise was great! With all the stress of planning a wedding I did not have to worry about her. She was on the ball, great at communication, flexible with the time line, and gave me a list of song ideas when I asked for advice. She even played songs not typically asked for to fit our taste.”

Erin L., February 23, 2020

“Denise arrived on time / early and played beautifully for our wedding day. Before the wedding she communicated with us and had it all down pat. She helped make our day magical, and even suggested more songs that we loved than we had originally suggested which was super helpful.”

“Denise Bruckno entertained our guests during our recent wedding reception. She was fantastic! It was a pleasure communicating with her during the planning. She was organized and professional and very accommodating. Our guest truly enjoyed her playing. Our family members are quite musical and can be tough critics when it comes to other performers, but everyone raved over her musicality and pleasantness. We would highly recommend Denise, we are so thankful we found her.”

“I was looking for a pianist to play for our guests during the cocktail hour at my wedding. With less than four weeks to go until my wedding I was running out of time. Luckily, I found Denise Bruckno’s website. I reached out to her via e-mail and she responded very promptly. We were able to set up everything within a day. She was extremely professional and easy to work with. The day of my wedding, I was unable to attend my cocktail hour because of photos, but my guests all told me how wonderful the piano music was. Denise is clearly a very talented and experienced pianist. She was a total hit and everyone really enjoyed her playing! I would highly recommend her to anyone.

“Denise played keyboard for my Dad’s 85th birthday party. She is a gifted jazz and standards interpreter and has a terrific repertoire under her fingers, but this was no regular gig, First, while the party was in Philly, I live in Los Angeles. Plus, I had written an original song and didn’t complete the lead sheet music until three days before the party. Denise not only learned the song on her own time, but met up with me the day before to rehearse. The song went off perfectly, and Denise’s musical style and easy going personality really made the party. There’s something special about a great musician-Denise has it. Enthusiastically recommend.

Evan G, June 23, 2013

“Words can’t explain how pleased I am with Denise. She was on time, very professional and played beautifully. I will definitely be using her again.”

Gregory B, June 18, 2018

“Denise was the perfect addition to our small communion party. She is an exceptional pianist and was kind enough to honor the requests of the few children at the party.”

Susan F, May 5, 2018

“Denise played for my Mother’s 90th birthday lunch, and it was a resounding success. She is an accomplished pianist and not only played classical tunes, but also tunes from the 40s. We thoroughly enjoyed her playing and I highly recommend Denise. I hope to have need for her services again in the future.”

Lisa B, December 29, 2012

We hired Denise for a retirement party and she was great. She learned the guest-of-honor's favorite song and played many other great songs in the genre we discussed before the party. Denise was prompt and very self-sufficient and I didn't have to worry about anything regarding the music during the set-up. Thanks so much!

Stephanie H, August 24, 2019

“Denise was great My guests were delighted with her performance. She took requests and was very professional. I will definitely use Denise again!”

Chris B, February 18, 2018

“Denise is an excellent and accomplished pianist. Our guests enjoyed her amazing repertoire. We have a dear friend who has been a professional singer for years and at our urging she sang a few impromptu numbers for us. Listening to Denise accompany her beautiful voice you would have thought that the two of them had rehearsed for many hours instead of just meeting five minutes before their performance. I would recommend Denise for any occasion where you would like to add an additional layer of beauty to your evening.

Chip N, April 5, 2013

“Denise is a wonderful musician and her jazz provided the perfect background atmosphere during the cocktail hour at my daughter’s wedding reception. We didn’t have access to a piano, so she brought her own keyboard and equipment and got everything set up beautifully. She was also accommodating about the timing when the schedule shifted on our end. Highly recommend.

Arlen H, August 3, 2013

“Denise was a pleasure to work with and all of our guests loved her music for both our ceremony and cocktail hour. We asked her to play classic cocktail style music and every song she picked was perfect. We could not recommend Denise higher for nay type of event. Thank you Denise for making our special day perfect.

Andre B, May 29, 2016

Loretta W, April 22, 2012

She was punctual, responsive, and sounded great playing all the standard jazz hits we were hoping for.
