"An atmospheric and Christmassy decorated theatre café forms the setting for this year's Yes Jazz Christmas Matinée. It is pleasantly busy. Many music lovers choose the warmth of the Yes Jazz theatre café of De Hofnar on this cold Sunday afternoon. Gipsy jazz is popular and Christmas music always goes down well. When these two come together, you can of course count on a special afternoon. And that is what it will be. The music is beautiful. A beautiful singer and three excellent musicians ensure a beautiful Christmas Matinée. This quartet clearly shows that many different types of music can be cast in the mould of the gipsy style. Django Reinhardt resonates in everything. The tight foundation is audible in Ronald Weel's rhythm guitar and on Daniël Gueli's double bass. You can build on this. The solo guitar and the singer provide the leading parts. Marcia Bamberg stands out because of her clear voice: crystal clear and velvety soft where necessary. The improvisations of the solo guitarist, John Lighart, are smooth and inventive. Sometimes very virtuoso. The repertoire is especially very versatile. From French chansons to well-known jazz standards. Of course, the big Christmas hits are not missing. Night and Day, After you’ve gone, but also Belle Histoire and La vie en rose come in beautiful arrangements from the Yes Jazz stage. Christmas has started well! "

"Last evening attendees to the to the Goods Shed in Tetbury were privileged to a spectacular Swing Jazz performance by this truly spectacular and accomplished group of guys. They are all very talented musicians that literally make their instruments talk. I couldn’t take my eyes off the guitarist playing the Gibson to whom nothing was beyond his skill set. My final observation was the obvious visual enjoyment the whole group derived from their music. A real pleasure to observe. Thank every one of you so much fun an enjoyable evening, hopefully soon to be repeated."

"We hired Kevin and Sergio to play at our wedding and it was the absolute best decision we made! A few days prior, we booked tickets to ride the Arno Boat in Florence where we first saw Kevin play in person and we were BLOWN AWAY! He is a seasoned musician and incredibly talented. He even played a special song from Dune for my finance and he was so surprised! As for the wedding, Kevin and Sergio were booked for aperitivo and dinner, but came early to play for our ceremony which we decided on just the day before the wedding. They are incredibly professional, yet personable at the same time. We came out of the experience feeling like we gained new friends :) if you are looking for musicians to play for any special event, you’ve come to the right place!!"

"This band provided us with a most excellent and professional evening of music. Their playing was exemplary and the cries of "more" at the end of the evening were an indication of their level of musicianship and ability to interact with the audience. Wedding receptions can be particularly difficult gigs but these guys totally nailed it. We have already booked them for our acoustic music club in December and eagerly look forward to their performance and the opportunity to share the HSG experience with our regular audience."

"The Group was perfect for my party. They started with jazz music mixed with very relaxing Arabic music. Then they played some standard Jazz but with flamenco rhythms that we really liked. And when the flamenco dancer came out we were all very impressed, her beauty was incredible and she was very talented at dancing. They ended the show with dance music and Latin rhythms with a Spanish feeling , and everyone danced, I would hire them again. "

"Kevin, il violinista, è un professionista straordinario e una persona splendida. Abbiamo scelto Kevin per la cerimonia nel matrimonio di mia sorella. Fin dal primo momento che l'abbiamo conosciuto, ci ha colpito la sua gentilezza, la sua disponibilità. Il giorno del matrimonio, ha reso la cerimonia indimenticabile e magica. Grazie infinite per tutto."
