Professional
Michael showed up 30 minutes early to set up and be prepared. He was professionally dressed and performed beautifully. He played every song that I requested in the exact order as I requested it. One of the songs was a Metallica song fade to Black, which is difficult but performed quite well. I would definitely hire him again

Oktoberfest Entertainment
We hired a lovely accordionist, Arkady, for our Oktoberfest Entertainment at our nursing home facility. All of the residents and staff had a wonderful time singing and dancing along. Arkady walked around with his accordion and also played requested songs. He gave us a surprise when he started to play the piano as well!

Awesome
We hired James to play his bagpipe at a funeral/memorial service at Ft. Sheridan National Cemetery, not really knowing what to expect. He was so good and flexible, and knew what tunes would be appropriate and when to play. He was great, and made the service even more beautiful.

Perfect wedding music
Michael is a very talented violinist! I appreciated his willingness to add/change songs when the organists did not show up for rehearsal. He is a true professional on top of being a very talented musician. He was prepared with our song choices and came ready to play. He made the wedding more memorable with his 5 Star performance!

I Highly recommend this company and the violinist Tamila! I have hired her through this company multiple times now. The most recent event was for a swanky baby shower which was 7/27/24 and she was such a hit! A very polished professional who is super reliable and talented. Delightful to work with. She played pop hits and more. Just beautiful music and everyone loved her!

Dimitra's the BEST!
Our event was taken to a whole new level of excitement and elegance, all thanks to the incredible talent of Dimitra. From the moment she stepped onto the stage, she captivated our audience with her mesmerizing performance. Every move was executed with precision and grace, showcasing her dedication to her craft.
What truly set Dimitra apart was her professionalism and flexibility. Not only did she deliver an outstanding performance, but she also made the entire process seamless and stress-free. She worked closely with us to ensure that her performance fit within our budget, and her punctuality was impeccable, easing any concerns we had about the event's logistics.
And let's talk about the boa, Tarzan! It was an absolute show-stopper. Dimitra incorporated it flawlessly into her routine, adding an extra element of flair and excitement that had the audience cheering for more. It was definitely a highlight of the evening and left a lasting impression on everyone present.
Overall, working with Dimitra was an absolute pleasure. She brought professionalism, talent, and a touch of magic to our event, making it an unforgettable experience for all. If you're looking to elevate your event to new heights, look no further than Dimitra. Thank you for an incredible performance!

This Group is Amazing - Violin, Viola, Cello and Flute
We have had the privilege of having this group play for our Christmas Day Church Service for the last 4 years. Each year the performance gets better. This year we moved our celebration to Christmas Eve. Our Pastor decided to add a Flute player. The young lady was amazing, she brought the performance to a new level. We had a few kids in the audience that play instruments at school and they were amazed. One young lady said "Now I know why my parents want me to practice more". I want to play like that some day. Very engaging, very professional, can't wait until next year.

Marvelous
I contacted The Internationals ahead of my 70th birthday party. I wanted some very specific music and performance. They are amazing, they make everything come true from the dreams. Henry is superb. He replies immediately, solves every difficulty and they "deliver" on time and in an excellent manner. Arkady is a most accomplished accordionist, he can play so many songs, from many different countries, beautifully. I will certainly see and best of all - hear - them again :-) Thank you so much Internationals for all you did to make my special birthday, perfect.

Above and Beyond Professional !
I am an only son amongst three sisters and suddenly my father and sisters all had leaned on myself to come together and make plans for my mother's funeral.
I was looking for two to three violinists on this gigsalad web page when Henry offered me all which I had been searching for or an option of a violinist and cellist.
Following my review of most of their videos, I chose the cellist and violinist.
In the afternoon following the catholic mass for my mother I had walked into our church hall to see Natalia and Irene who had perfectly set themselves up in plenty of time prior to their booked time.
They both greeted me and were ever so cordial offering their sympathy's in my loss.
I spoke to them and asked them to take breaks as I just know string instruments can be overly tiring on the hands but I believe they refused and they just kept the songs coming.
Here is the Most Important Feedback I Believe The Internationals Delivered On ;
Natalia and Irene played/delivered without a single flaw !
Also All of The Songs Were at the correct pitch to where everyone could mingle and socialize without any over-powering instrument playing.
In the future I hope to always stay in contact with these wonderful people and Never would I ever hesitate to book them again!
THEY WERE TREMENDOUSLY GREAT!!!
The ladies who were serving the afternoon lunch plus all my guests who were there to listen ( maybe 160 ) in attendance stated two things
" What Wonderful Instrumentalists and What a Tribute to your mother "
Thanks again Natalia, Irene and Henry,
Love from The Burling Family

Best Birthday Ever!!
I hosted a small Surprise Oktoberfest Birthday party for my moms birthday. I hired Mike as a surprise to my guests. We had the nicest conversation when he called to confirm the date. I could tell that he was extremely professional and also kind-hearted. He arrived 15 minutes early and set up in my living room while my guests were in the kitchen. Everyone trickled out when he started to play! It was so exciting. We danced, we laughed, we cheered. Mike played for a little over an hour, taking song requests and answering all of our curious questions. He’s a brilliant musician. I wish I could have him play at all of my parties!! 10/10 would recommend.

Musician for Memorial Service
I was referred to Henry Sergienko to assist with providing a violinist for a memorial service for my uncle who passed away the end of January 2020. My aunt wanted three specific hymns to be played at the service. Henry scheduled a violinist to perform at the memorial service which was initially scheduled for March 23, 2020, coinciding with the COVID-19 pandemic shut down mandates were being enforced. Due to the pandemic outbreak the memorial service had to be re-scheduled more than once over the next 6 months until October 5, 2020. Henry and the violinist Igor Antipov was very flexible and accommodating with re-scheduling the date of the performance for the service.
The memorial service for my uncle took place on October 5, 2020. Igor played the three hymns beautifully that my aunt specifically requested as well as other pieces appropriate for this occasion.
My aunt who is 91 years old and uncle were married 68 years. The memorial service was held on the date of their wedding anniversary. He was 90 years old when he passed away. My aunt was very happy and pleased with Igor's performance at the memorial service. We look forward to a happier occasion to work with Henry and Igor again in the furture.

They were very quick with answers to our questions beforehand and made us feel at ease. Mike arrived half hour early to make sure he was on time. He was very friendly and added so much joy to the party. My parents were thrilled and they will be talking about this for years to come. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering a musician.

Henry and Stan were great!
Henry was very responsive and easy to coordinate with. He even sent me a recording of Stan playing pomp and circumstance on the saxophone 🎷. I had been looking for a while and was not satisfied with any other artist that I had talked to. He showed up a few minutes earlier than he had said and worked with us to surprise my wife with the back yard graduation ceremony I had prepared for her. Needless to say she was more than surprised and still hasn’t stopped talking about it. Before the ceremony/party she was so distraught that covid ruined her graduation. Now she’s saying “im glad it happened this way, that was soooo much better than any graduation I have ever been to!” Stan played all the hits and even put his own twist on some and made them even better! I will be booking with the internationals again and again(my wife loves the saxophone). Definitely would recommend to anyone considering an artist at their event!!

I hired an accordionist. Arkady was terrific! He even contacted me the morning of the event and asked if everything was good with my event! Arkady came a little earlier than his playing time and I LOVED THAT! He walked around and visited with some of my family and friends to "get a feel" of the party! Once he started playing, everyone was joining in and clapping and singing and dancing! My dad, the 90th birthday boy, was dancing and singing with Arkady! Arkady walked around while playing and everybody, both young and old, really enjoyed his playing! I am so glad that I decided to do this....Thank you Gig Salad & THANK YOU to The Internationals!!

Inna Peschanskaya - a real pro performer
I was doing an upscale Sweetest Day Party with the theme of a classy Wild West Saloon. Since in these joints the Saloon Girls were on a mission to keep the patrons longer in the main hall, they needed to be very entertaining for them, so they could spend more money or gold dust on booze, gambling, and 'soiled doves' upstairs. Henry Sergienko has found me a perfect Saloon Gal Inna Peschanskaya. She was perfect at 'flirting' with the mail guests and doing an almost impossible balancing act where the husbands were kept interested while their wives considered it as an innocent playing act. She was not confused with a slightly provocative outfit which we discussed and purchased among the other variants. Inna was the center of the party conducting her act and and conversing with the guests on a various topics. Everyone was giving me the compliments for months on that hit-party, and mentioning the actress.

His violin was the perfect, elegant touch for our ceremony!
Thank you so much for your professional services. We were really pleased with our violinist, Michael R. He was very professional and communicated with us frequently prior to the wedding to make sure all our needs were met. Highly recommend him. He made sure to play all the songs we requested and even added two that were not on his list..

Michael was beyond professional. He arrived 15 minutes early, was a delight to us and the crowd and everyone enjoyed his choice in music! He read the attitude of the room and tailored that to the songs he played. 10/10 would recommend The Internationals, and Michael!

Very please with Mike's performance and professionalism of the company. He played during our cocktail hour, and it looked very classy to my guest. Mike did a nice job playing also. They give you a list of songs that you can choose from, and you can suggest some songs to see if the pianist can play it. My pianist called me in advance (closer to the wedding date) to make sure we were on the same page, which I thought was a nice touch.

It was a hit!
We had Arkady play the accordion at our backyard Oktoberfest party this past weekend and he was a hit! The ambiance he created was wonderful, he was personable and the guests loved him! He also took requests graciously and mingled so well I forgot he wasn't a guest of ours. The whole experience was great, easy and straightforward.

A perfect touch to the proposal!
My proposal could not have gone any better than it did. Arkady was very professional and prepared thoroughly for the day. Both, him and Henry, communicated with me throughout the process to make sure that plans were perfect and that there would be no hiccups when my fiancé arrived for the proposal. The music was beautiful and Arkady mixed in my requests with some of his classics and the collaboration worked FLAWLESSLY. I was very impressed with these guys and will seek them out for future services. GREAT JOB GUYS!

A nice two piece add-on to our event.
The two piece band (accordionist and violinist) were a nice addition to our line up of entertainment. They performed during the cocktail hour and during dinner. The whole process was easy. I signed a contract with a small deposit a few months before. They called to confirm two weeks before. They arrived an hour before their start time to set-up. When they played, they were good. They music was enjoyable. It was the perfect addition to the dancing music that followed dinner. I would hire them again.

Outstanding
Henry worked with me late into the night to book an accordion player and singer for my son's burial. Arkady and Kyle had only two days notice but performed the song, "Losing You" beautifully. It was a wonderful tribute to my son and was a nice moment during an extremely difficult time. We were also much later to cemetery than I thought we would be, but they were both very understanding. Thank you.

Henry, thank you very much for all the help getting Arkady and Kyle to perform at the cemetery, they were wonderful. The song was a fitting tribute to the impact our son had on us. I greatly underestimated how long the service would be and how long it would take to get the procession going, so we were over an hour late to the cemetery, but Arkady and Kyle were very understanding and I am very thankful for that. Thank you again.

only superlatives
I can only give superlatives:
-- Arkady (of The Internationals) has a huge repertoire in the genre requested.
-- His performance was lively, and he sounded really good.
-- He interacted with the attendees well, and he was full of smiles.
-- He was on-time and he made simple setup requests with no demands.

The Internationals played beautifully during my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. The musicians got sheet music to match the music I wanted perfectly. At the rehearsal, we practiced the processional along to a youtube recording of the song. At the wedding, they sounded just like the recording, so everything went very smoothly! We have received many compliments on the musicians. Henry and I communicated for months, reviewing which instruments to use for the ceremony, which songs to play, etc. I was impressed Henry actually came to my ceremony to ensure everything went as planned!

We were very pleased with the professional performance on keyboard and accordion by Mikhail Antoshin. He was a very pleasant man and very talented. He even came over to the table and sat in front of my 95 year old mother, whose birthday it was, and sang a song to her while playing the accordion. We would hire him again for an event. The only thing I wish is that he had played the accordion more, but we didn't ask him to or he probably would have. We highly recommend hiring Mikhail for your party.

Hi Henry,
We wanted to thank you so much for helping us with music for our wedding celebration! Arkady was an incredible pianist, and provided beautiful songs for the ceremony itself, as well as for the full hour of cocktail party following ceremony, before dinner began. He was extremely professional and so easy to work with. When we weren't sure about what songs to play at certain times of the ceremony, he was always helpful to suggest options for us. He was very knowledgeable, talented, and professional. The cocktail party piano music was just beautiful, and added class and elegance to the whole atmosphere. Our guests were very impressed!
And Alex's band was absolutely incredible! They played everything we wanted them to play, and had so many great suggestions for us that we hadn't even thought of. They were flexible, organized, professional, fun, and incredibly talented musicians!. The breadth of music that played was so vast, from jazz during dinner to party music for dancing until the bar closed down! We couldn't believe how packed the dance floor was!!!! We still keep hearing comments from family and friends about the band, and I think Alex and his band now have many new fans after this wedding! We will be looking to catch Alex again on the Chicago music scene! Thanks again guys, you really were incredible! You helped make our night special!

I can't say enough about what a fantastically talented and professional group The Internationals are. I hired their violinist and double bassist to play my girlfriend's (now fiance) and my favorite song as I proposed to her. Between almost 100 emails back and forth, Henry and I were able to set everything up perfectly, even though I was organizing the event from Oregon to take place in Chicago. Everything went 100% smoothly. The music was beautiful and the musicians were dressed to the hilt. If you need to hire one or more musicians for any event, I would absolutely recommend The Internationals without a doubt. I would hire The Internationals again in a heartbeat! :)

Great performers, very professional and affordable
I had a violinist and a cellist play at my wedding and they were very professional. They had a big repertoire of songs and even played some that I requested.
Furthermore, there was no problem from the performers playing at out ceremony outside. They then traveled to the reception inside and did a great job and the throughout the 4 hours they pl ayed at our cocktail hour and dinner in which they sounded great and were very professional.
I would choose to have performers from the Internationals play for me anytime. The best thing was that we did not have to stress out about the music we told them what we wanted and they pulled it off flawlessly.

Many thanks for wonderful evening. Arkady of Internationals delivered an amazing versatile repertoire and the party was a big success thanks to the artists. Probably the best we and our guests , according to their feedback,had in the long time. We will definitely call upon Arkady in the future.

We loved the Internationals! We had a small backyard party to celebrate my husbands 40th birthday. The party got moved indoors due to weather. The Internationals entertained from room to room while my guests laughed danced and thoroughly enjoyed the night. My friends want to hire them yearly just for fun.

Hi Henry!
Sorry for the late response, but we left right after the wedding for our honeymoon and just got back.
We LOVED the musicians! They were extremely professional and played beautifully! I know they only had a few weeks to learn a few of the songs, but they sounded flawless. We had guests come up after to tell us that they loved the ceremony music. My only regret is that I wish I would have walked down the aisle slower so I could have heard more of Cannon in D :) I was so nervous, I walked too fast!
Thank you very much and I hope you can share my above email with the 2 musicians.
Best,
Kayley and Doug
The violinists were absolutely wonderful and added such a special element to our outdoor wedding ceremony. They were also a hit during the cocktail hour before the reception. We also appreciated that they checked in a few days before the wedding to ensure our expectations will be met. Thank you!

Yes we thought he was very very very good!
Arkady came early to check out venue and where he would be playing.
He arrived on time and set up quickly. My family really enjoyed his accordion music. He had a wide array of songs he played (ex: Italian, polish, russian, german, etc.).
This was for my in-laws 50th Anniversary luncheon and everyone was delighted with the background music. It was a hot day and we were in yard; he came inside to the kitchen and stood in doorway and was outside as well. He was able to move around with people and the volume of the instrument was not over powering. People were able to mingle right next to him and still hear each other.
The cost of the event was not expensive for the great joy he brought to the occasion. People don't always think accordion music. But it was delightful and spirit filled/giddy event to all!
My 80 year old Dad and 52 year old brother and 81 year old mom and 75+ old in laws were dancing on the porch and in the yard....my dad twirled me around....... I have it on video....it was hysterical and one of those events that is now memorialized in everyone's brains because of the added touch of this timeless music. Brought everyone together. Thank you so much!

Arkady came to the party ready to play. He created our party theme's Midnight in Paris ambiance by playing beautiful French melodies on his accordion. He passed through the crowd providing musical background, but not droning out their lively conversations. He is a professional. I highly recommend him.

He was very professional. He came early and performed a packed hour. I would not hesitate to recommend Arkady.

The Internationals
The Aurora (Illinois) Historical Society was hosting an evening of celebration for more than 100 years of Italian American settlement and shaping of our cultural history, and we had just about given up finding an *Italian band*. Then The Internationals came to our attention and through our door, and they were absolutely perfect. Not only were the combination of accordion and mandolin ideal for an Italian sound, but they had an incredible playlist of suitable music and kept going for 3 delightful hours. They even, with barely a week's notice, added an instrumental version of a selection from the opera "Tosca", which probably doesn't get requested that often, but which they knocked out of the park. Our guests loved the musical atmosphere and were singing and dancing in no time. We could not have been more pleased, and definitely will seek out The Internationals for other parties in the future. Thank you, gentlemen, what a great pleasure it was to host you in Aurora!

I invited "Internationals" to provide musical entertainment for my parents' 50th anniversary surprise celebration. Musicians were very professional, provided great music, were prompt and delivered their service at the highest level. They went far and beyond expectations. Would definitely recommend them for an event.

Gennady Sergienko and Arkady Pevchik have performed at my place as a band and solo on several occasions and were absolutely loved by the public. The dynamic performance of Russian , Ukrainian, Jewish and All-American favorite songs takes turns with jokes and interaction with the ones in attendance and public is kept interested for the whole duration of the concert. It is not a rare picture when restaurant patrons would sing along and dance during performances.
I have enjoyed working with the band ,
