"It starts with hum, then a toe-tap and before you know it you are singing along to the tunes that you know so well. But what’s better, a night with the La Dolce Vita Swing Collective introduces you to new arrangements of those popular songs with an Italian-esque twist – as well as showcasing a selection that won’t be so familiar. The five-piece swing/jazz band – featuring piano, bass, sax, drums and vocals with those specially designed new arrangements – pays homage to likes of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Tony Bennett and other Rat Pack favourites. Vocalist Tony Delicata put together the band with a collection of musicians from Edinburgh and Blairgowrie whose previous talents range from West End musicals to The Jools Holland Band. Tony’s powerful vocals on the likes of ‘I’ve got you under my skin’ and ‘Nice and Easy’ starting to carry the audience. ‘Come Prima’ and ‘O Sole Mio’ gave us the first real feel of the Italian influence. But it was after the interval that the Collective – and the audience – found their stride. The timeless – and age-less – appeal of the Rat Park tunes soon had the crowd moving from humming along and a foot-tapping, to full on sing-a-long mode as the band ripped through classics such as ‘Come fly with me’, ‘King of the Road’, ‘That’s Amore’ and ‘Volare’. By the time of the closing numbers of the near two-hour long show, ‘La Dolce Vita’ and (of course) ’New York New York’, the crowd was sold. It really does show that it does mean a thing, when it does have that swing. "

"Jools composed and remotely recorded violin sections for 3 of my tracks: Just For a Day; Roman 7; Boneyard. The tracks have an American influence but would fall under the indie genre. Essentially, the remit for Jools was to 'bulk them out' with strings. Although I had not actually met Jools in person (and still haven't), he was extremely responsive when communicating via email and therefore didn't need to meet. Before agreeing, he encouraged me to listen to his back catalogue - I was impressed with the breadth and depth of genres that Jools had worked with and I was pleased to learn he had worked with a couple of acquaintances of mine- namely The Birmingham Philharmonic Orchestra and Chris Tye. Listening to his work, I was impressed by his knack around texturising songs- in my experience, strings can sometimes feel isolated from the rest of the instrumentation and I am aware that some string players find this aspect of composition challenging. Throughout the process, Jools ensured he had a secure understanding around my expectations. This brought about discussion around dynamics, chord progression technique (tremolo, tied sections etc). Although he was happy to read from transcript, I felt that his take on composition would be much better than mine, so he kindly agreed to compose the parts himself. After recording the first version, he sent me recordings via YouTube- he even went to the trouble of including a running text commentary of his thoughts within the video itself. This meant that I could give better feedback and bounce off his ideas. I was especially amazed by the turnaround (3 days to complete the process) as I had not set any deadlines or ball-park timeframes. Jools' playing is technically perfect and he has an exceptional ear for harmony and dynamics. e.g. He knew not to play for the sake of playing, and when to build to crescendo. He was able to add a range of chords, hooks and new melodies to the song. In Boneyard, the melody in the instrumental chorus ended up becoming the dominant hook- this was totally unplanned. Much like his violin playing, the overall recording quality was very professional. If you are looking for an outstanding string player who is both technical and visionary, Jools would be my number one recommendation."

"Vasia and John are passionate with their job. They answered each and every question that we had and did a wonderful job entertaining our guests. We let them handle all the communication with our planner and sound engineer. They arrived early with their piano and made sure everything is ready. We definitely recommend them with all our hearts!"

"Dearest Friedel.. I would like to take this opportunity on behalf of myself & my hubby, to thank you for playing at our wedding on the 26th of February 2011. Everything from setup to the end was exceptional and very professional. You have really made a fantastic impression on all my guests, it was not what they expected as I have kept this a secret to the day of the wedding. There were endless compliments about the way you played, as this never happens at an Indian Wedding, LOL! By you making the appearance with your Saxophone really put the cherry on top for my fabulous wedding. It was an absolute pleasure having you there and we look forward to using you again in the near future. Thanks again & take care!!!."

"or our private corporate gala in Monte Carlo, we sought a pianist who could create an unforgettable experience of elegance and prestige. The Monte Carlo Pianist delivered beyond our highest expectations, turning every moment into a celebration of refined artistry. The evening began with a delicate performance of Chopin’s Etude Op.10 No.3, setting a sophisticated and inviting tone. Guests were instantly drawn into the beauty of the music, remarking on the clarity, precision, and emotional resonance of each note. The pianist’s technique was impeccable, but it was his interpretative skill and sensitivity to the room that truly distinguished the performance. Throughout the evening, he offered an exquisite balance between classical masterpieces and refined contemporary pieces, adapting seamlessly to the changing mood of the event. The sound filled the venue without overwhelming conversation, creating a perfectly curated atmosphere of luxury and refinement. One of the most impressive aspects of his performance was the subtle customization. Every arrangement was tailored to the nature of the event, creating a unique soundtrack that reflected our company’s sophistication and attention to detail. Guests frequently commented on how much the music elevated the overall experience, adding an intangible yet essential sense of class. The evening’s finale—a medley specially arranged for our closing toast—was a breathtaking blend of emotion, technical brilliance, and refined musicality. The performance left an indelible impression, confirming the Monte Carlo Pianist as the gold standard for luxury musical entertainment."
