"Through the 11 years that I have known Rory both as a friend and colleague, I have found him to possess many excellent qualities. He is extremely organised and pays close attention to detail. I have worked in his band Diaspora since 2013 and found him to be very efficient in running his production company Red & Black Music. The events are always diligently co-ordinated with all the operational info sent out well in advance, so we always know what to expect. I have found Rory to be very reliable and always keeps his word. I think he would be a great asset to any music or arts organisation. He has a wealth of knowledge to impart to peers from his years of music-making. His approach is fun and engaging whilst bringing lots of ideas to the table."

"I had the pleasure of attending a ceremony where Organista e Voce Lugano performed, and I was truly impressed by their level of artistry. The combination of organ and voice is not easy to master, but they achieved a perfect balance. The organ provided a strong and majestic foundation, while the voice soared beautifully above it, delivering an emotional and engaging performance. The repertoire was well chosen and varied, moving from classical sacred pieces to more contemporary selections, all performed with great care and attention to detail. What stood out the most was their ability to create a genuine emotional connection with the audience. The music never felt like a background element—it was an integral part of the experience. Their professionalism was evident in every aspect, from timing to execution. Everything was seamless and well-coordinated. I would highly recommend Organista e Voce Lugano to anyone looking for musicians who combine technical excellence with true artistic expression."

"WOW. Hiring Igor was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. He is so easy to work with, reliable, professional, and extremely talented! We hired Igor a year ago as our first vendor to play during our cocktail hour and before our wedding ceremony. He travelled from Niagara to Muskoka for the occasion. We highly recommend him and we are already looking for the next occasion that we can hire him to play at! Thank you so much Igor! -Hil & Ross"

"Please can you thank Rory and the band for me as I didnt have chance to thank them personally yesterday... They were tremendous, and several people commented on how it just added the perfect finishing touch to the day. Hindley Hall have also asked for your details and I will pass them on. They were also very impressed with the musicians."

"I second Nikkis feedback. The guests absolutely loved Rorys music and were very complimentary to him. I would be very happy to recommend him for future bookings. Thanks so much for playing at our wedding. The entrance song (for both the aisle and the entrance to the dinner) was done so well, and Im so happy that we had you there. Thanks for making this day even more special for us."

"The Elegant Christmas Ensemble was the highlight of our December wedding. The strings and harp created a truly magical, festive atmosphere that gave us goosebumps. Their performance of 'O Holy Night' during the ceremony was breathtaking. Utter perfection and professionalism! Highly recommend to any winter couple"
