ON SCREEN

 

"Greg Canestrari's Jerry Delucci lights up the screen and is 100% hilarious and an excellent tonic to Tim Ahern's cool and smooth Robert Grasso. Anyone who has not watched this series is really missing something."

- Janis - 7 Feb 2022

 

 

(Prowler) "Bad Boy! I loved the film, your character is nerve wrecking! I do hope Ignacio will want to make a Prowler sequel. Greg is the perfect sociopath villian we love to watch!"

- F. Chahill - Nov 2018

 

 

"I just watched Prowler and your character was so compelling I had to look you up! Really good film. I thoroughly enjoyed it."

- F. Cahill - Nov 2018

 

 

(Prowler) "Reece's co-star Canestrari is a wonder. Whilst it's difficult not to give away his character's journey during the film, his performance is nuanced and fascinating. In fact, he often steals the scenes!"

- G. McGill - January 2015

I hope to see more of him on TV and film! I also thought he was great in the show and was disappointed he could not continue with the series!!"

- M. Reed - December 2014

"Coworth holds a special place in our hearts as it is our proposal place. It never disappoints. The staff, the food and drinks are all amazing and the cosy ambiance is made even better with Greg's delightful set in the Drawing Room - He is a definite highlight for us each time! A hot date, good food, wine and Greg's amazing talent singing on the piano - truly makes for a perfect evening."

- Pooja - 8 Oct 2021 (Trip Advisor)

 

 

"I cannot begin to tell you how magical last night was for us. Helen and I were so tired and conversation and listening to your songs was absolutely the tonic we needed. I'm sorry for the tears. They were tears of love. You are a very special man with an amazing gift and Helen and I will never forget how totally amazing your entertainment was. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."

- Lisa - 19 Sept 2021

 

 

"After dinner Saturday night at Coworth Park we had a late night drink with live music in the Drawing Room. Their "Piano Man" Greg was great, taking requests from guests."

- anandchoprammcgowen - 11 Dec 2020 (Trip Advisor)

 

 

"I have been to Coworth Park a number of times. It's a beautiful place. A highlight of our recent stay was an evening listening to singer/pianist Greg in the Drawing Room. He was fantastic, very personable and was taking requests from the guests. We ended up spending the whole evening just listening to him and drinking cocktails. I'd thoroughly recommend stopping by the drawing room to listen to him."

"Thank you for being such a wonderful entertainer and giving us such an amazing experience singing so many favourite songs of ours. Been waiting 3 years to enjoy your undisputable talent and your off the charts personality. I always appreciate you performing your own thing rather than the karaoke originals. Was supposed to be a nice, normal evening but you made it so much more than 'special'. Doesn't even cover how we felt. Thank you again."

- Vlad - Dec 2018

 

 

"OMG!!! This made me cry tears of joy!!! I haven't heard your beautiful voice in sooooo long!! Still gorgeous and it made my day!!!"

- T. Epstein - Dec 2017

 

 

"Greg, Just visited your website and I was absolutely, positively blown away!!! You are a phenomenal talent!! When I saw you in Lilyhammer I had no idea of the actual level of your talents. If you had been born 50 years earlier there's no doubt you'd have been hanging out with Frank, Dean, Sammy and the rest of the icons! You'd have been in Ocean's 11 for sure. Again, you are just a phenomenal talent. Love your singing and I do know my jazz!"

- Thomas Grube - Oct 2016

"We had the amazing, Greg Canestrari, a very talented singer and actor performing with the Clefhangers Big Band and everyone was on their feet dancing from the start of the evening right up until the end of the evening. The Clefthangers totally made the evening and we still get calls from people raving that it was the best wedding ever. Thank you!”

"Dear Greg, my name is Sarah and I am Chief Stewardess onboard a private motor yacht that is based in the Mediterranean. The owner of the boat is Prince Fahad who introduced himself to you when you were playing at last month's London event. The Prince thoroughly enjoyed your performance and he expressed strong interest if you would be available during our summer cruising season."

"Greg, Pam & I very much enjoyed your Coworth Park session last Tuesday where we kept you chatting leaving you very little time to even take a break. Thank you and do take care."

- Tony W. (Semi-retired Pianist/Composer) - Oct 2014

 

 

"Greg, just a quick message to say thank you for making my visit to the Millennium Mayfair so enjoyable. When I heard your piano playing and singing I decided to sit and just listen for a short while.  When I went into the bar that is when I managed to meet and chat with you. It was a pleasure to chat and to hear you play and sing.....also to hear of your role as Senior Officer Moore on 24 !!  Again, thank you for taking the time to chat. Next time I am in London with my partner, I will find out where you are playing, sit there with a coffee, bowl of nuts, ask everyone to be quiet and ask for Elton John's 'Your Song'."

- M. Graham - July 2014

 

Latin Fever (London West End-with Darren Bennett and Lilia Kopylova)

“Creating the sounds is a fine band of nine, ranged at high level across the back of the stage. Singers Greg Canestrari and Noa Bodner belt it out so beautifully and with authority and don't halt the pace with introductions, one number segueing seamlessly into the next. The songs are all heavily amplified for a really head-moving experience.”

 

– Ballet.co.uk

 

“On stage is a thirteen-piece orchestra that includes singers Greg Canestrari and Noa Bodner.  But far from being simply accompaniment, Greg and Noa with their steller voices shine under the spotlight – and rightly so for both can deliver a number with consummate ease and more than a generous helping of panache.”
