"I couldn't have asked for anything better than Denis's performance. Denis arrived on time, was courteous and sympathetic when the party was delayed, and played perfectly. It was a 40s theme birthday party for my girlfriend, and he played standards with soul and precision, both on a piano that was my gift to her and with his own digital set-up. I can't recall a single missed note! And Denis was charming and sweet. All in all you could not go wrong hiring Mr. D'Aoust!"
Jeff H., Oakland, CA

"Albert and I would like to thank you for the wonderful piano music you performed at our wedding.  Your music was fantastic and amazing!  During the long delay you were able to play so many different tunes without any problem, which made our ceremony extra special.  We have received numerous compliments from everyone on your performance.  Words cannot describe how grateful we are.  We hope our paths will cross again in the future.
