Why Choose Jill Grohusky—Harpist, Pianist??

Recently, I was given the honor of playing a surprise anniversary dinner at which a husband and wife, celebrating their many years together, showed me exactly what music can evoke in those that hear it.

As the last request of the night, the husband asked me to perform the song which was played during their first dance on their wedding day. As the music played, no words were spoken, but the love between them was evident to everyone in the room. The guests and I watched in pure admiration as this couple demonstrated how much a song alone can communicate between two people. We could feel the love they felt for each other simply because this song had so much meaning to them.

It is true that music speaks volumes and the music at your special event should send the message you want your guests to hear. Whether it’s the love between you and your partner, or setting a mood of fun and excitement , having a professional help you set this mood allows not only for you sit back and enjoy the music, but to know that your message will be heard.

With Jill Grohusky as your musician, you will receive the following:

Freedom to Choose
Your event should include the music that speaks to you!
While I am happy to assist in the music selection process or select music for you, a unique aspect that I offer at NO EXTRA CHARGE is freedom for you to select the music that fits your special event. There is no set song list you must choose from.

Peace of Mind
As a veteran of hundreds of live performances including weddings, parties, concerts, religious services, musicals, etc., through the years I have gained the skills and knowledge of all that is involved in live musical performance. Be it a full Catholic Mass, cocktail hour, or other private event, I am confident in my ability to create a memorable atmosphere through the music performed at your event.

Live Music
While recorded music may be an alternative for your event, having a live musician creates a level of elegance and intimacy, making your event memorable for years to come.

A Personal Touch
I truly enjoy each and every event that I am chosen to be a part of. I pride myself in being available to assist with questions and concerns at anytime via email, phone, and with personal contact prior to your event.

Amazing! Highly Recommend!

Jill was amazing to work with from beginning to end. She was quick to respond to our initial inquiry, and then to all questions along the way. She created the most beautiful music for all parts of our ceremony. During our consultation with her, she played us parts of the songs we requested so we would know exactly what it would sound like for the wedding ceremony. She was able to produce our favorite songs that had meaning to us; she didn't just have a set list of songs that we had to pick from. She truly wanted the songs to be a reflection of us and our relationship. Her music is just beautiful, I can't say that enough. Jill is so easy to work with, is very flexible, is patient and kind, and her talent is incredible. Thank you, Jill!

Beautiful ceremony music!

Jill provided beautiful piano music for our ceremony at Sepia Chapel! She was great to work with, and always responded promptly. It was a fun process picking out a variety of songs to be played throughout our ceremony, and Jill helped us decide by playing snippets for us and giving her recommendations of what would flow best! Live music is definitely the way to go, and I’m so glad that we went with Jill!

Beatiful music by a consummate professional

Hiring Jill to do the music for our ceremony music was one of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning process! Jill was so easy to work with, and it is was clear from our first interaction with her that she is an incredibly knowledgeable and experienced professional who can deliver high-quality service. The harp was such a beautiful and unique option for our ceremony music, and Jill was able to accommodate all of our song choices. In addition to providing beautiful music for our ceremony, Jill was able to communicate with other vendors (the venue, our officiant, etc.) to handle all of the set-up and details in the weeks leading up to our wedding, which made less work for us.

Simply amazing musician!

My husband and I were recently married at Sepia Chapel in Green Bay and didn't personally know of any musician but knew we would want the sound of a piano during our ceremony. Jill partners with Sepia and the partnership not only made our decision easier, we could not have been more pleased with Jill. She is truly an amazing pianist and will definitely make your special day one to remember. Thank you Jill!

Amazing pianist

Jill was included in the package from our ceremony venue to play piano.
She has a large library of songs listed on her website and the songs we chose for prelude and receiving line music were songs listed on her website. She was able to play the specific arrangements of songs I found for the processional and recessional and they sounded AMAZING! So happy we were able to have her for our ceremony.

Sweet and helpful people, BEAUTIFUL Musician, you don't want anyone else but Jill or Addison playing at your wedding!

Oh. My. Gosh. I am not a cry-er, neither is my mom. We went to meet with Jill for the first time to figure out ceremony music, and despite me not having a great idea yet of what we'd play, Jill was able to give some suggestions and played samples for us. When my mom and I burst into tears when Jill started playing, we knew we had "the song" and also THE MUSICIAN! Truly an incredible musician and such a sweet and helpful person. I highly recommend having her play. We had a change in our wedding date, and so Jill was not able to play for us at the wedding, but other pianist was able to fill in for her. Addison Waege played just as beautifully as Jill and we absolutely loved having him at our wedding. We SO appreciate their work to make our day perfect. We hadn't gotten to practice much for our ceremony and we had not met Addison prior to that day, and yet he played everything perfectly and was able to just watch for cues as to when to play certain songs. Considering we were "winging it", and not even taking that into consideration, everything was PERFECT. He played before, during, and after the ceremony and I wouldn't recommend anyone else to play! Thank you Jill and Addison for making our day so special!!

You know she's amazing when your priest (who has done hundreds, if not thousands of weddings) can't stop raving about how beautifully she plays. Jill is a true artist and of the several things I was worried about on my wedding day, having beautiful ceremony music was NOT one of them. If you hire Jill for your wedding or event, you will not be disappointed!

Jill’s talent is simply amazing! Enough said. We worked with Jill for our wedding in Wausau, and we are so glad we did. Jill played harp for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and performed beautifully. The ceremony music went flawless, despite a few hiccups on our end – The aisle wasn’t very long, so she quickly acted on her feet when to switch songs. Music transitions between the songs we chose sounded great (and we challenged her with some very different songs)! I am impressed that she was so open to travel from Green Bay to a venue she hasn’t played in before. We decided a bit late to ask her to play during the cocktail hour, and we are sure glad we did! For this, she needed to carry her equipment to a different location – which was not a problem for her at all and did so very quickly. During the cocktail hour, we left the music selection open and she awed our guests! She did all of this with a great attitude – she came to the venue a few hours early to get setup and settled in, and even showed a nephew how to play a few chords on the harp!

Jill is amazing! We chose Jill to play the piano at our wedding ceremony and we absolutely loved it and her. Jill was very professional and friendly throughout the entire process. She invited us over to her house where we were really able to hear her play and pick the songs for the big day. She was very in tune with what we wanted, took our playlist, and put together a great plan with music that fit perfectly. The music played at our wedding was incredible. We both got very emotional listening to the songs we chose being played so beautifully. We have received many compliments in the days since the wedding about Jill and we couldn't have been happier about our decision to work with Jill.

Jill is very accommodating. She let me change my instrument selection 3 weeks prior to the wedding even though she normally doesn’t do that. I had a hard time choosing between the harp and the piano. I ultimately decided on the harp since it is an instrument that you don’t see played very often and I’m happy I did. She did a great job. I had a guest tell me that she thought a CD was being played when she walked in since it sounded so good.
