Review Centre: Swing Bands

"Strepitosi! E bravi questi quattro ragazzi in uniforme! Li abbiamo sentiti suonare ad Alassio qualche anno fa e, come ci siamo promessi, questi maestri suoneranno al nostro matrimonio, e così è stato. A Villa Roseto di Imperia, in questa splendida location suggestiva, gli Uke Swing hanno preso posto anche loro, intrattenendo gli ospiti con cover swing anni '40, sempre pronti a ogni evenienza e attenti ai momenti della cerimonia. Seri, simpatici, professionisti e discreti nelle esecuzioni dei brani e maestralmente ben inseriti nel contesto, hanno contribuito alla meravigliosa riuscita della festa. Peccato che ci si sposa una volta sola! Alessandra e Gianluigi"

"An atmospheric and Christmassy decorated theatre café forms the setting for this year's Yes Jazz Christmas Matinée. It is pleasantly busy. Many music lovers choose the warmth of the Yes Jazz theatre café of De Hofnar on this cold Sunday afternoon. Gipsy jazz is popular and Christmas music always goes down well. When these two come together, you can of course count on a special afternoon. And that is what it will be. The music is beautiful. A beautiful singer and three excellent musicians ensure a beautiful Christmas Matinée. This quartet clearly shows that many different types of music can be cast in the mould of the gipsy style. Django Reinhardt resonates in everything. The tight foundation is audible in Ronald Weel's rhythm guitar and on Daniël Gueli's double bass. You can build on this. The solo guitar and the singer provide the leading parts. Marcia Bamberg stands out because of her clear voice: crystal clear and velvety soft where necessary. The improvisations of the solo guitarist, John Lighart, are smooth and inventive. Sometimes very virtuoso. The repertoire is especially very versatile. From French chansons to well-known jazz standards. Of course, the big Christmas hits are not missing. Night and Day, After you’ve gone, but also Belle Histoire and La vie en rose come in beautiful arrangements from the Yes Jazz stage. Christmas has started well! "

"I hired Rick Holland Productions for my wedding and I thank my lucky stars I did. They were just an absolute solid band. I live in Toronto so the 10 piece band crossed the border for my wedding - our wedding coordinator said she'd never heard a band that good over her decade long career. I like to think I'm a genius for finding them ?? Kian K., Toronto, ON, CA"

"We had found the band via social media, and they really made it a more special day for us. Before our big day we sit once with Stefano and he directly knew what we wanted. The communication was very good and very clear. The tea for three band was the best choice, it fits perfectly in the sciene of our wedding. If we could do our wedding one more time, for sure we select again Tea for Three band."

"I love jazz but many of my party guests were not so keen. After Vibrant Jazz entertained us for a brilliant evening I have had so many comments about how good they were and how much they enjoyed the music. Many thanks for helping the night go with a swing!"

"(With Sarah-Jane singing) What an excellent evening ! The guests had a fab time. I am enjoying taking all the credit for the choice of band. The lads and yourself fitted in perfectly The music was excellent and very much enjoyed by all. But even better the lads and yourself are as charming as you are talented. Thank you for indulging my demands for the mic and flexible timings I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you to other events organisers and you can quote me on that. So..a big thankyou for agreeing at short notice and being such a professional, charming and talented band"
