Nicola booked Dorel Oprea for their event in Essex • November 2023
“Great music that was perfect for the occasion. Such a nice person who was very professional and a big hit at the party!”
Peter S booked Dorel Oprea for their event in West Sussex • May 2023
“The function Dorel Opera played at on 26 May was a Celebration of Life for my late wife held at the spectacular Bailiffs court Hotel in Climping, West Sussex. My daughters and I had 40 guests in a relatively small room with a buffet lunch and wanted gentle background music during the event. I submitted a list of 25 songs from the classic Broadway musicals which were a huge part of the theatre life my wife and I had together for over 40 years. Dorel did exactly what we wanted, played superbly all afternoon, and ran through the entire song list we had provided. A brilliant afternoon of background music which was exactly what we wanted. A lovely man and a fabulous pianist.”
Simon F booked Dorel Oprea for their event in East Sussex
“Dorel was excellent. He instinctively knew what kind of music we required for the celebrations we had in mind. When we had spur of the moment requests, Dorel played them without delay! On top of that, he's an absolute gent.”
Keeley W booked Dorel Oprea for their Wedding in Oxfordshire
“We had booked another pianist but he unfortunately got covid! Dorel stepped in last minute and absolutely saved the day - and NAILED IT. He learnt the requests last minute as was an absolutely brilliant addition to our little wedding! Thank you so much!!”
