JUILLIARD PIANIST PAULINA SIMKIN

“Paulina is amazing! She’s so talented - she blended right in w our design and also perfectly enhanced the ambiance of our reception. She learned the theme song to one of my and my husband’s favorite animated series and is so sweet, professional, and easy to work with. If I want a pianist for any event in the future, then I’d definitely re-hire her!”

“Paulina is a wonderful pianist who is artistically brilliant and passionate about her craft. She elevates any event she performs at with a mix of her signature charm and sophistication. I own Faye Fern Creative, a wedding design and planning house. Most of our clients enjoy having an element of live music at their events. They also expect a high touch experience in the lead up to their special day. I always feel confident recommending Paulina to our couples, knowing that she will deliver a refined performance and easy planning process…

…

What truly sets Paulina apart from many other classical musicians in the industry is her warm personality and genuine talent at engaging with couples and their guests. Her repertoire includes a great mix of classical, jazz, pop, show tunes, and more. She tailors each set list to the clients' tastes and the mood of the event. Additionally, she offers custom song request add-ons. I highly recommend Paulina if you're looking for a memorable event pianist who is thoughtful, a breeze to work with, and genuinely invested in crafting a meaningful atmosphere through music.”

“We hired Paulina to play during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. She did a beautiful job - exactly what we wanted! She sent us her repertoire even before booking, which was extensive and spanned classical, jazz, pop, and more, with plenty of songs we liked. There was also an option to request non-repertoire songs for a small fee. Of particular note, we were deciding between two different songs for our processional (including one off-repertoire), and Paulina sent us samples (for free!) so we could hear the arrangements and directly compare them before making our final decision. Ultimately, we were delighted by Paulina's performance and would 100% recommend her for an event/wedding. Thank you Paulina!”

“I found Paulina when I was doing research for a wedding pianist, and I truly hit the jackpot. I could not have asked for a better experience. I had a lot of big asks and new music but Paulina put so much care and time and energy into making our ceremony and cocktail hour beautiful. She pulled everything off with such poise and grace, and my family RAVED about her the whole next day. Paulina is truly a gem :)”

“Breathtaking! Absolutely breathtaking!! Yesterday was beyond perfect. Thank you for being a part of making our wedding day sooo special!!! You are amazing!”

“Paulina was the perfect addition to my daughter Karissa’s wedding at The Ranch at Laguna Beach. We rented a grand piano and had it placed on the golf course for a stunning outdoor ceremony and reception with live piano music. She made Karissa's wedding day so special! Her unique musical talent and professionalism left a lasting impression. We received many compliments from our guests on how much they loved her performance, and it truly elevated the entire atmosphere of the ceremony. Paulina comes highly recommended to any couple looking for a gifted, reliable, and unforgettable wedding pianist.”

“Paulina was such a great addition to my daughter’s wedding. She was so easy to work with. She had a great variety of music and even added songs to her repertoire to accommodate the particular music taste of my 33 yr old daughter and her fiancé. She is professional and personable and I would not hesitate to hire her again. Such a beautiful music addition - my guests were impressed too.”

“We’ve had many performers at our annual gala throughout the years but I think Paulina is my favorite.”

“Wow! Working with Paulina was such a great experience! Our client had specific songs that she had to learn, she was open to accommodating it as well as making it her own! They loved her music and she was a great addition to our party! We can’t wait to have her again.”

“What a perfect addition to our event! Paulina was so easy to work with, from our first communication she was a joy to arrange the event details with: highly responsive, amiable, and professional. She arrived on time and elegantly played both quietly in the background and louder when the party was in full swing. Our guests raved about her wonderful performance all evening. I can't recommend her impressive talent enough and look forward to hiring Paulina for our next event!”
