    Cafe Maestro
    Biography:

    Cafe Maestro is an extremely popular accordion player specialising in French, Italian, Klezmer and Tango pieces! John has been playing for around 15 years and used to travel around the UK on his canal boat before deciding to settle on dry land in Somerset. His main musical influences have been the accordion music of 1930's Paris, Argentinian Tango, and the rich traditions of Eastern Europe and Italy.

    His impressive and eclectic repertoire is the perfect addition to any event, whether it be a wedding, party, drinks reception or bar mitzvah; and it's easy to see why he has glowing reviews under his belt.

    John will arrive at your event with all he'll need to perform, and as he is able to play without amplification, he can perform in a variety of settings including a garden or terrace! This being said, he can provide a PA if he is performing inside to more than 120 guests, and this allows him to also play recorded background music when he is not playing live.

    To add a sophisticated, unique atmosphere to your event, you need to authentic sound of Cafe Maestro!

    "John was a real star, he kept the students well entertained. Lots of tunes and chat if they asked him questions. It was great that he moved around the room, playing to different groups. He is a talented accordion player with a wide range of tunes from all over the world. Highly recommended! "

    "We were happy to engage Café Maestro for a private reception at the Royal Albert Hall in January 2018. On the night, Café Maestro was on time and looked great with his particular quirky style, which was perfect for our event. He played a one hour long set, as guests enjoyed a cocktail reception, however, was never intrusive. His choice of music and volume level were perfect for the area and setting and I am sure he could adapt to any event. Many of our guests commented on his contribution to the evening and we will certainly welcome Café Maestro back to the Hall on another occasion. 5 Stars"

    "Thank you once again for providing a great musician for our event at the Royal Albert Hall, yesterday evening. Café Maestro was great and perfect for our reception in our Gallery. We would definitely book his services again!"
    Albert Hall Soloist Review
    "We would like to thank both Entertainment Nation and Café Maestro for doing such a wonderful job for our wedding blessing. John contacted us a few weeks before the wedding and asked us about the day etc and informed us of the music he would be playing, we changed our plans at the last minute and nothing was to much trouble. As we were married in Italy the accordion was a perfect accompaniment whilst we had drinks and then John kindly moved down to the garden and continued to play. Everyone commented on how professional John was and the children in particular enjoyed spinning around to his music!! We couldn't fault a single thing about the whole experience - thank you John"

    "I cannot recommend John enough, besides being very prompt, courteous and enthusiastic his music was superb. He enhanced the mood perfectly and all of our guests thought his playing was such a wonderfully unusual thing to have at a small intimate anniversary gathering."
    Anniversary Party Performer Review
    "John was such a fab addition to our wedding. We thought it would be something a little different for our guests and they absolutely raved about him afterwards. The music John played made it sound like we were wandering the streets of Paris and added a real element of romanticism to our day. It was incredibly hot, yet John continued to play effortlessly. His communication prior to the wedding was really great and instilled a real degree of confidence in us. Thank you John for your lovely addition to our day - a very talented man."
    Wedding Performer Review
    "We just wanted to say thank you so much for making our wedding day extra special with your incredible accordion playing. From the moment we first heard you play we knew that you would be able to create the perfect ambiance for our drinks reception. We really appreciated you staying to play a waltz for our first dance and had many comments from our guests about your lovely music."
    Solo Wedding Accordion Review
    "I just wanted to properly thank you for all your help at the Serenata which you did a brilliant job at, ahead of our wedding! We loved meeting you, and your tunes were amazing! I still can't believe what a good job you did of learning the new songs for us, and all our guests were amazed by you! Thank you for being so helpful and professional, and best of luck to you in all your future endeavours!"
    Wedding Serenata Review
    "Café Maestro, thank you so much for playing at our wedding at Dewsall Court on Saturday. Your music was the perfect backdrop for our Italian themed wedding. Our guests all commented on how beautifully you played and how courteous you were too. Wishing you the very best for the future."
    Wedding Performer Review
    "John played brilliantly at our small wedding reception. We had 30 guest in the Orangey, John's music was never over powering and created a beautiful ambiance. All our friends and family loved the music, as it created a relaxing atmosphere but also enabled those who wanted to dance to do so.... I would have John playing again in a heart beat! John was also very flexible as I asked to change the time he arrived a couple of days before the wedding. John truly made our wedding reception special."
    Wedding Accordion Review
    "John exceeded all of our expectations. We threw a cocktail reception/party at an Oxford University college and wanted to provide some entertainment that was both exciting as a central feature and also appropriate for background music. John did just that, brilliantly. His repertoire is extensive and very flexible. He tailored what he played to the theme and vibe of our event, and it went down perfectly. As organizers, we had countless people approach us throughout the evening saying, 'Great idea having that accordionist - he's excellent!' We owe all the praise to John of Cafe Maestro. Many thanks, John"
