Review Centre: Wedding Musicians

"Thanks for your performance last Saturday 29th June, as you are aware we have great people playing in the George and Dragon Ilfracombe but few create an atmosphere as you did that night. The audience couldn't get enough of your covers and just wanted to dance the night away! We need you back. Thanks once again. Jon"

"A big thank you for your part in Saturday's party. You did a great job and it was a real pleasure to have you playing. The music was super and it was a relief to me that you just got on with the job so efficiently and unobtrusively, so I didn't need to think about that side of things at all. Thanks to so many people giving a helping hand I was delighted to be able to join in plenty of the dances myself which was great fun. Thanks again for giving us a memorable evening, and very best wishes for the Brogues."

"​It is 100 years since Frank Sinatra was born and Martin Joseph is considered one of the most important Sinatra interpreters today. The concert with the excellent Carlsham Punch Big Band was delivered with dynamic force and feeling, showcasing a singer and entertainer of the highest class. KARLSHAMNS ALLEHANDA, SWEDEN"

"Sandy was a great performer! His set up was great & efficient. Our family loves to sing along so he accommodated for that. He did his homework with prepping a playlist to keep everyone entertained for over 2 hours. We look forward to working with him again."

"Hi dear talented girl, I want to thank you for your great efforts. Everyone in the room was amazed! We've already received many compliments about how beautiful and romantic it was. Without you, the ending wouldn't have been as spectacular. I hope to book you again someday or experience you again; what a pleasure! Thank you very much, also on behalf of the bridal couple.💕🫶❤️"

"Hosting an anniversary celebration in Monte Carlo demanded a level of sophistication that few musicians can deliver. The Monte Carlo Pianist exceeded all expectations, offering a performance that was both breathtaking and deeply moving. Guests were immediately captivated by the opening piece, Liszt’s Liebesträume No.3, performed with a richness of tone and subtlety that conveyed both grandeur and intimacy. Each note was deliberate, nuanced, and evocative, creating a seamless connection between the music and the emotions of the evening. Throughout the reception, the pianist demonstrated extraordinary versatility. From soft, impressionistic pieces during the cocktail hour to intricate, virtuosic passages later in the evening, every performance felt tailored to the moment. His musical intuition allowed him to respond to the mood of the room with perfect timing, enhancing the emotional impact of every segment. Guests were particularly impressed by his ability to combine classical masterpieces with contemporary arrangements. Pieces that might normally feel familiar were transformed into something fresh, elegant, and entirely captivating. The flow of music throughout the evening was seamless, providing an invisible yet essential thread that elevated the entire event. The pinnacle of the evening was the first dance, where a customized medley of romantic and modern pieces brought a magical, cinematic quality to the moment. The performance created memories that our guests will cherish forever. For anyone planning an ultra-luxury event in Monte Carlo, this pianist is an absolute must. His combination of technical mastery, expressive depth, and sophisticated presentation is unmatched, ensuring that every occasion is elevated to extraordinary heights."

"Here's more clear evidence courtesy of Italian-born saxophonist Mirko Fait's quintet that tasteful jazz doesn't run its course at America's borders. These are accomplished musicians who know how to swing and can hold their heads high in any company, foreign or domestic. On the other hand, there is nothing here that sets Fait's group apart from many others of its size and makeup; it is simply a well-schooled working ensemble doing its thing, no more and no less. Fait, who plays soprano and tenor sax, is joined on the front line by flugel Roberto Piermartire, who, like Fait, is an accomplished musician whose solos are invariably polished if not otherwise exceptional. Pianist Antonio Zambrini is another strong soloist, while bassist Rodrigo Amaral amplifies the group's persona by adding his husky baritone on four selections. The quintet's other member, drummer Roby Giannella, is a solid timekeeper who tends to his duties without stepping on anyone's toes. Guitarist Giampiero Spina adds a pastel solo voice on "Sad Eyes Child," "B Mine" and "Funny Day." The program is composed primarily (eight of ten tracks) of compositions by Fait, and they are melodic and charming if less than memorable. Several are in a Latin mode including Amaral's vocals on "Quanno Chiove," "Rebecca Smile," "Nada Mais" and "Aquarela." While the quintet is pictured on the inside jacket performing at the Sant' Elpidio Jazz Festival, Confidences was recorded in a studio, most likely at Fait's home base, Milan. Other particulars are elusive, as the liner notes are in Italian. What is most germane, of course, is whether Fait's quintet is proficient and worth hearing, and the answer to that is yes. The songs, all originals, are for the most part bright and charming, and the quintet plays them well. Although there is nothing here that blazons superiority, neither is there anything that is less than well-managed. Track Listing: Lastlove; Sad Eyes’ Child; Quanno Chiove; Never Alone Melita; Rebecca Smile; All I Missed; B Mine; Nada Mais; Funny Day; Aquarela. Personnel: Mirko Fait: soprano, tenor saxophone; Roberto Piermartire: flugelhorn; Antonio Zambrini: piano; Giampiero Spina: guitar (2, 7, 9); Rodrigo Amaral: electric bass, voice; Roby Giannella: drums. Title: Confidences | Year Released: 2017 | Record Label: Jazz Di Marca"

"We booked Big Smoke Brass for our wedding reception entertainment, and oh my word did they live up to our expectations! They got our guests on the dance floor, and the vibe in the room was amazing, all because of them! We knew they would be brilliant, but when we requested 'Let It Go' as our first dance so that our daughter could enjoy it, we did wonder if they would say no. We should never have worried, they embraced every request of ours and made our evening absolutely brilliant. I cannot recommend them enough, we will definitely book them again for our next party. 5* isn't enough, a million would be closer to what they delivered for us. So, so happy with everything they did. Thank you so much! X"

"I recently had the chance to work with the band as an organizer, and I consider myself very lucky. Both professionally and personally, they are absolutely on top – there wasn’t a single request or task I brought up that they said no to; for them, nothing is impossible! :) I wholeheartedly recommend them if you’re looking for a band, and I truly hope I’ll have the chance to work with them again at the weddings and events I organize, because I can be sure they’ll always throw an amazing party! :)"
