REFERENCES
"I recently produced a Jewish High Holy Day Service worship series that was attended by over 400 people in South Florida. I was in need of a pianist that could learn the music and perform 4 different services. I found Doug on Craigslist, and while he was a little hesitant, as all the music was in Hebrew, we rehearsed about 8 times, and by the time we performed, Doug not only knew every bit of our music, but helped to create the most magnificent worship experience our congregants had ever seen.
Doug's integrity, music reading and improvisational skills, and personality were just 3 of the BEST aspects of working with him. Overall, Doug added more value than anyone I could have ever hired, and became an excellent friend that I will want to work with for many years to come.
I can't possibly find the words that will convey my gratitude to Doug for his exceptional performance and collaboration with me. If you need a professional that you must be able to count on and who will IMPRESS you with his exceptional ear, then look no further, because Doug is the BEST!"
