"A huge thank you to Domas, who created an exceptional atmosphere throughout our wedding, from the cocktail hour until the end of the night. Thanks to him, we had a memorable and energetic evening. A true professional who left an unforgettable mark on this event!"

"Paris, Galerie 19 Paul Fort, June 29, 2023, around 8:45 p.m. The trio is on tour. He had already come to our country last year, for a short tour of 3 dates in the South-West, at the initiative of Philippe Levreaud. Here he is back. The day before he was in Seine-et-Marne at the Moulin de Benne, and the days after that it will be Angoulême, Bordeaux and Puy-du-Lac. But for now they are here, for us, in this Gallery which regularly hosts the rarest music. A rustle of cymbals, the stridencies of the soprano sax, and a keyboard motif which installs a pulse: an incipit which smells good of the magic of improvised music. Then the improvisation is organized around a vehement pulse: the percussionist is at the center of the game. Not like a ‘groove machine’ which would convey preconceived ideas: rather like the living heart of an organism in permanent mutation. The pianist is in a double dialogue: rhythmic with the percussions, melodic-harmonic with the saxophonist. It is lyrical, tense, and a host of micro-events take place that bring the speech to incandescence. End of the first sequence. After brief words of welcome and introduction (Jamie Harris contributes his French) we set off headlong, towards the alto sax, in a crazy, almost Caribbean spin. Then back to the soprano, for a sort of ballad that will increase in intensity, on motifs that carry a bit of Africa within them. And this continent is still present in the following theme, which is a tribute to the musicians from Ghana with whom Trevor Watts collaborated at the end of the previous century. Throughout the concert, the music breathes under other horizons: Hispanic, Latin American, Middle Eastern. With sometimes melancholy accents that often resolve themselves into intense pulsations, towards a lyricism that is as torn as it is heartbreaking. In short, a bouquet of strong emotions and subtle sensations: music, in short. Audience conquered, columnist in heaven, ready to face the galley of the year to return from Porte d’Orléans to Bondy: due to ‘security measures’, no metro or bus; no RER ‘E’ but walking to Denfert Rochereau for the RER B to Gare du Nord, then line 5 to Bobigny, and 4 km of walking to reach my home. 2H45 to cover 18 short kilometres (where it usually takes about fifty minutes by public transport, from door to door). But the concert was really worth it! Xavier Prévost"

"We had the pleasure of having Oleg play saxophone at our wedding, and he was absolutely fantastic. He arrived perfectly on time, was warm and friendly from the moment we met him, and his talent truly elevated the whole atmosphere. Oleg is a brilliant musician — every piece he played was smooth, expressive, and beautifully delivered. Our guests loved him, and we couldn't have been happier with his performance. Highly recommend!"

"Kerrie has worked for my company “Stories by Zinaida” of the past 5 years with a high level of talent and professionalism on different events and activations, including our Christmas Street Performances, Downtown Boulevard in 2019, as part of our official artists at the Abu Dhabi’s Grand Prix in 2021 & 2024, representing the local music community at the MOTB Event at the Burj Khalifa Park in association with DSF in 2021 & 2025, performing for the contestants and guests of the Abu Dhabi TriYas Event in 2022, and numerous other private events. Kerrie’s singing and saxophone performances are notably high energy, passionate and audience engaging, which sets her apart from many other talents. She is very easy to work with, always bringing a positive and enthusiastic attitude to the job, whilst delivering a high-class show."

"During our 20 years together, Jan gave us a great evening. Jan had already arranged his things neatly when we arrived. Jan senses the atmosphere and responds accordingly. Every now and then the feet off the floor and then a little slow again. Everyone was full of praise for Jan and the guests had never seen a saxophonist at a party like this before, which makes it extra fun. It was also a surprise to most people, we managed to keep it pretty quiet. Jan is also a very nice person, flexible, friendly and calm. Highly recommended for your party! Greetings from Enkhuizen"

"Μια υπέροχη μουσικός Ένας όμορφος άνθρωπος Ήταν η έκπληξη στο γιο μου τον γαμο Η κΧρυσα -Άρια έπαιξε στη συνοδεία της νύφης μου στην εκκλησία του Αγίου Νεκτάριου στο Φαληράκι της Ρόδου Αυτή η στιγμή ήταν και η πιο μαγική αφού με το σαξόφωνο να χαϊδεύει τα αυτισ με την απίστευτη μελωδία όλοι ήταν τόσο συγκινημένοι Η παρουσία της Η μουσικής Κέρδισε τις καλύτερες εντυπώσεις από όλους μας Σίγουρα θα υπάρξει και επόμενη φορά Σας την προτιμώ Είναι εξαιρετική"

"Optreden in 1920 Speakeasy Nijmegen (cocktailbar) Tal heeft in 1920 Speakeasy in Nijmegen een mooie performence neergezet. Van tevoren hebben we de playlist doorgenomen. Hij zorgt voor een gezellige sfeer en speelt goed op in op het publiek. Echt een aanrader om Tal in te huren! voor een feest!"
