Gisela Meyer
ProfessionalMembership
A number of years ago I produced a little concert in Queen’s Park, London. But who to ask to be the Musical Director and Pianist? There is no doubt that Gisela Meyer is a superb pianist. The depth and emotion of her playing and her empathy to accompany the singer, especially one as eccentric as myself (!), is difficult to match. She is also a splendid human being with a lovely family. So impressed was I with Gisela that years later, most recently when recording some new albums of both classical aria and contemporary musical theatre songs, it was Gisela I immediately asked. Her wealth of understanding multiple genres of music, the fact that she is also an accomplished singer herself, brought home to me to necessity to have Gisela record the music for these new works. It is of great compliment to say, you would work with someone again and again, without hesitation and that I can attest to with Gisela.

“Thank you so much for giving us such a delightful evening of song and music last night. Gisela for performing in every piece, and Mark for the planning, organising and putting together the programme – and all of you for your wonderful singing. Brita” (Concert THE VOICE from the Friends of the Alexander Technique, 19 May 2018)
“I got a first for my recital, and I owe much of that to you, so Thank you!” Greg, trumpet student at City University, summer 2016
“Gisela Meyer provided invaluable help in arranging music for the launch of my new poetry collection. She provided accompaniment for the songs – having first helped finding a singer and giving advice about choosing some appropriate 1930 standards. She played some challenging instrumental solos to open and close the proceedings which involved her learning at quite short notice a substantial piece with which she had previously been unfamiliar. The evening would have been nothing like as successful without her!” Michael Bartholomew Briggs (October 2013)
