"Muy apreciado por todos los invitados La música era una de las cosas más importantes el día de nuestra boda. Era fundamental contar con buenos músicos profesionales. El trabajo de Rubén, junto con su compañero a la guitarra en el cocktail, así como las intervenciones entre plato y plato y la apertura del baile fueron un regalo para los oídos. Dieron el toque que queríamos al cocktail en una boda con mucha mezcla cultural. A la gente le encantó y a nosotros también. ¡Un gran trabajo!"

"From start to finish Rebecca was amazing. She always kept in touch & replied very quickly with any questions we had. We had a pianist on our wedding day and wanted Rebecca and the pianist to play a song together (even though they hadn't ever met before) They got in touch with each other and discussed how the song would be played on the day. On the wedding day, you wouldn't of thought they were two people who hadn't met before. The song they played together sounded amazing! It was exactly how we imagined it. If your looking for cellist to play at your wedding or event, book Rebecca!! She truly is fabulous at what she does. Thanks Rebecca. "

"TRILBY Scott Yanow, author of ten books including The Jazz Singers, Trumpet Kings, Jazz On Film and Jazz On Record 1917-76 The Rick Holland-Evan Dobbins Little Big Band, which is based in Rochester, New York, was founded in 2005. Co-led by flugelhornist Holland and trombonist Dobbins, the 11 piece group has the sound of a big band despite having eight instead of the usual 11 or 12 horns. Its musicianship is top-notch, soloists are impeccable, and arrangements are both colorful and swinging. The 11 songs heard on Trilby consist of four standards, three originals by harmonica great Hendrik Meurkens, and a song apiece by Kerry Strayer, Hal Crook, Brent Wallarab and pianist Bill Dobbins. The father of Evan Dobbins, Bill Dobbins is the best known musician in the band, contributed six of the arrangements, and is a key soloist on five songs. But enough of the statistics. The Little Big Band swings hard and puts plenty of spirit into each performance. The opener, Benny Golson's “Stablemates,” has fine solos from Holland and the Phil Woods-inspired altoist Doug Stone, with the two battling it out near the tune's finish. Meurkens' “Slidin'” has an arrangement by Bill Dobbins that in its use of restrained tone colors is worthy of Thad Jones. A heated jam on “The Eternal Triangle” gives Holland and tenor-saxophonist Mike Pendowski an opportunity to jam, trade-off and interact with each other. Holland, Doug Stone (this time on clarinet) and trombonist Nick Finzer play lyrically on the melodic “Second Waltz.” David Baron's bass is featured prominently on “The Cottage,” a haunting tune particularly worthy of several listens. “Trilby,” a lengthy exploration of the chord structure of “Alone Together,” has some excellent hard bop flugelhorn from Holland, adventurous soprano from Stone and a memorable spot for Bill Dobbins' piano. Trombonist Dobbins, Pendowski and drummer Rich Thompson are not only well featured on “Fused” but at one point they play as a pianoless bassless trio. Rick Holland is heard at his best on the ballad “My Darling Darlene” and a jazz waltz version of “While We're Young.” David Baron is naturally in the spotlight during bassist Oscar Pettiford's “Tricotism” (along with Nick Finzer and Bill Dobbins) before Trilby closes with its most intense performance on “Rich's Call.” Throughout Trilby, the Rick Holland-Evan Dobbins Little Big Band plays on the level of most better-known ensembles, performing music that is inventive, full of life and fun. Their CD is highly recommended."

"When talent is guided by the heart... Dario and Riccardo accompanied the celebration of our wedding with their live music during the aperitif and a DJ set in the evening. They are attentive, meticulous, and well-prepared professionals... always willing to accommodate requests while maintaining their identity, and always present to respond to every need. Their musical talent touches the soul, making it resonate and gifting moments of infinite joy. It only took a few notes to make all the guests fall in love with their music. They were also amazing in the evening entertainment... they joined in our wild dancing with energy and lots of charm. We are immensely grateful to them for helping make our day unforgettable, and we are thankful to life for meeting two extraordinary guys whose passion for music is contagious! If you're looking for talent and heart, The Uncles are a guarantee!"
