"Luigi è stato fantastico dal primo contatto (un anno prima del matrimonio), il giorno del matrimonio è stato chirurgico, nonostante alcuni problemi di logistica dovuti alla location lui ha sempre trasmesso tranquillità e è riuscito a sistemare le sue postazioni in tempo perfetto per la cerimonia e la festa! Personalmente è stato carinissimo e attento alle nostre necessità. L’abbiamo trattenuto più a lungo e per un prezzo minimo è stato con noi fino alle 3.30/4 (nonostante fosse ad un paio d’ore da casa). Siamo stati contentissimi come tutti i nostri invitati. Grazie Luigi! P.s.: contattatelo per tempo"

We went to a restaurant just off Sixth Avenue and wound up talking from 2:30 pm until 8:00 pm. All those hours we talked about the saxophone, about music, and how this must-cian from Seattle was faring in the Apple. Another time, he called me at 2:00 am insisting that I listen to a new musical idea he had forged for himself. Next morning the telephone receiver was on the floor; I had tallen asleep. Embarras-sed, I mustered what I hoped was a believable apology. I don't think it mattered however. He'd played that night because he couldn't contain the energy, moved to share this wonderful gift of music. His music, this gift, will inspire you. It's at once bold and incisive, spirited and alarming. Booker 1. is daring enough to bring together in his own compositions things that are usually kept separate - jazz and religious music. It makes for a spritely, fun sound. The listener will be moved by the intensity, range and absolute beauty of the entire delivery. But caution: do not trust the titles, expect a surprise.. As music brings the warmth and light of beauty into our lives, this recording will warm our hearts and spirits. Through this light, perhaps we will see a little more of ourselves. Possibly, we will come to understand a bit more of each other. Either way, it is a wonderful gift. Booker 1. is a colossal talent! Gregg Gordon "

"Michael performed the early afternoon slot at our Mini Festival- With a mixture of slow, chilled and more upbeat interpretations of popular pieces, Michael really gave a lovely chilled accompaniment to the Sunny afternoon. His skilled Musicianship was greatly appreciated by myself and the 100 plus gathered to enjoy the day’s entertainment. Michael arrived well in time for his slot and was smart and really was a true professional during his performance."

"This young man has a talent that can only come from God. His solo messages are very anointed and soothing to the Spirit of God. Like David when he played for king Saul. "

"Jan is the perfect musician for any occasion. He played for our 40th birthday party. His play list is huge and to suit any taste. He was meticulous in all aspects of presentation and was enjoyed by everyone. He was also very approachable and willing to play anything that was asked. "
