What people are saying about Rob
and his Music:

"I credit Canadian Ted Hasiuk of "Cafe Jazz" fame for introducing me to Rob's music. His guitar playing is fresh and vibrant, and "The Right Time" has both tremendous depth and diversity---a true treat for any programmer. It is easy to understand why Rob was nominated for "Guitarist of the Year" by the Canadian Smooth Jazz Awards panel"

"Hi Rob, I just wanted to thank you for the great job you did at our wedding. Your music set the right tone for the evening, especially at the Church. You’re rendition of “Clocks” by Coldplay had everybody talking and was a great way to pump us up as we walked down the aisle for the first time as husband and wife. It was such a hectic day and it was nice to know that our guests were entertained properly while they waited to greet us. Everything was perfect, and I hope that our paths will cross again in the future. Thanks again. Sincerely,"

 - Mary Lynn Healey

Thank you again for making our special day bright and cheerful with your music, we will definitely recommend you to all our friends. Cheers!"

-------------------------------------------------

"Dear Rob, We are writing to thank you for the instrumental music you performed at our son's funeral service. Although, we both were not able to hear much of the music you played we had a number of people mention to us that it was a fitting tribute to our son who so loved the guitar. Once again, thank you so much helping us provide the musical setting to the service. Sincerely,"
 - Natalie and Jay MacLaurin

-------------------------------------------------

"We would like to thank you for a tremendous job with your performance at our wedding, it was absolutely spectacular and everyone enjoyed your selections. The music went together absolutely perfect for the ceremony given the fact that you had to learn the pieces that we chose and the dinner music couldn't have been better, it definitely beat having a DJ play random dinner music, the only thing that I am upset about is not purchasing your CD as I would love to be able to listen to it and be proud to say that, that guy played at our wedding. Thank you so much for being there it made our day memorable. I will definitely refer you to others. Thank you nothing but compliments!"
 - Darrell and Jamie DosRamos

-------------------------------------------------

"Dear Mr. Tardik, Here's just to let you know we received the parcel all right, as well as the CD. Excellent guitar playing! We like your music very much, particularly your interpretation of La Isla Bonita. We put the CD on repeat. Lovely guitar sounds in the background. Please keep us posted once your new CD is out. Sincerely,"

"Hi Rob, I just wanted to pass on our thanks for the excellent performances you and Katherine provided for the Grand Opening Reception of our Burlington office. The sound and variety of the music was fantastic and the volume you played at allowed our guests to enjoy your music while still carrying on their conversations. Both you and Katherine were prompt and professional and we received substantial positive feedback from our guests and staff alike. We would not hesitate to recommend your talents and we would be very happy to use you again should the opportunity arise. Once again thanks for helping make our event a success."

"I recently met with Robert Tardik at Cafe Barbakan last Friday. Robert is a very fine guitarist and I believe his unique style is in a class of its own, far beyond my expectations. Yet he is very humble. I spent the entire evening from 8pm until 11 pm listening to him playing and there was not a single boring moment. I wish I had brought my wife along but she has to put our 4 year old to sleep. Robert's music is so enlightening, refreshing, inspiring and full of surprises which makes all the moment count as I listened to him "LIVE" at the cafe for 3 consecutive hours. In my opinion his skills and blends of improvisation is so crisp, clean and clear as it reverberates in my ears all the time even when I am not listening to it. I guess his songs really embodies and captures the essence of WAVE guitar music. "Without Words" really has such a profound impact to listeners like me because the melodies speak for itself to convey those inspiring/refreshing/enlightening messages. BRAVO !!! BRAVO!!! Two thumbs up for Robert Tardik for this superior & excellent compositions. Sincerely,"

"Hi Rob, Just returned from Italy and had a great time. I wanted to thank you soooo so much for a wonderful performance by yourself and with Stephanie at my wedding on September 26th 2009 - Everyone commented on your music and how nice it was to have this music in the background - You truly added a special touch for the day - It made me feel so happy that we had you there - I thought with the limited time you had to play that song - "Better Today" - you guys did excellent - Most people thought our first song there was with a CD playing in the background until they finally realized it was performed live - Thank you again - It was a privilege to have you there...The whole night went off really well - you are very talented. Take care"
