Corporate Holiday Event December 2022

Doug exceeded expectations and he interacted well with all attendees. Playing throughout the evening flawlessly our guests really enjoyed his style. Very professional, yet accessible, he made eveyone at ease and blended well with our evening program.

He was worth more than the fees for his services and we will be requesting his services anytime we need a pianist.

Thanks Doug for a splended event!
