"Un diez en todos los sentidos. Queríamos hacer una presentación diferente de nuestra empresa. Alex se mostró entusiasmado con la idea desde el primer momento. Colaborador. Proactivo. Creativo. Le dimos las ideas clave que queríamos transmitir y escribió él mismo la letra, adaptándola a un tema flamenco. Nuestros clientes, directores de marketing y comunicación de algunas de las principales marcas de alimentación españolas, alucinaron. Nunca habían disfrutado de nada igual. Exitazo. "

"Felipe was fantastic! He was very responsive and organized. He called me the day of to talk through the schedule and details of the event. He showed up early and was super laid back and "go-with-the-flow" when I asked him to move after he had already set up! His music was perfect for our outdoor reception - he had a great voice and was very talented with the guitar. Even the music he played during his breaks was perfect. I would definitely recommend him!"

"Sergio played some classic style spanish guitar music for our cocktail hour and was fantastic. We had guests with high compliments for the music and found it perfect for the venue and wedding. Sergio was very easy to deal with and quick to respond to any queries we had"

"“For an introduction to the world of Flamenco, Flamenco Sol is a must watch” ★★★★ Perth Happenings, 2023 Aire Flamenco has dispelled my preconceptions of what Flamenco is. Even when frenetic, there is finesse to the stamping, akin to the quick shuffle of a tap dancer. In fact, it is grace under fire as despite the furious footwork you might see and hear, there is restraint in movement, most noticeably in the wrists and fingers which always remain gentle and languid. And that’s not all I learnt about flamenco, while watching Flamenco Sol. Aire Flamenco is a melting pot ensemble of performers who boast a combined wealth of international experience. Sunday’s performance featured Marcus Perrozzi (percussion), Justin Kutylowski (guitar and vocals), Raquel Avellan (dance and vocals), Valeria Gonzalez (dance) and Maree Laffan (dance). Through Flamenco Sol, this talented troupe invites the audience for a brief tour of the world of Flamenco. In Flamenco, almost every prop has a purpose, nothing is just ornamental. From the taps of the baston (cane) and the sliding flick of the hand fan to the flowy bata de cola (skirt) to accentuate the twirls of the dancers. Even the humble clap and slap of what looked like an ordinary wooden box stool played their parts in providing a rich musical experience. I was drawn in by the farruca, with its assertive and sharp stamps contrasting with the soulful, emotive voice of the male vocalist. I also enjoyed the fan dance, which was truly mesmerising to watch as each opening and closing swish of the fan partnered perfectly with the beats of the percussionist. For an introduction to the world of Flamenco, Flamenco Sol is a must watch. I know I’ll be keeping an eye out for future gigs by Aire Flamenco."

"The Pagliuca-Mena ensemble is incredible – and that is not a word I often use. I found it original, listenable and completely absorbing, not only for the musicians’ class but for the arrangements and the inclusion of so many different facets of music: It’s heavy on the jazz but also strong on the Latin, a little classical and even a touch of folk now and again. It is hard to put into words how struck I was listening to this so I am not going to try, but rather say if you want something very different but with enough familiarity to make it still comfortable, listen to this music. It takes a lot for me to get excited by a band on first hearing, but the Pagliuca-Mena Sextet instigated just that. They are one of the most exciting bands I have heard for a long time and the delivery of this music is truly exceptional. "

"Maria Ploumi is an exceptional laouto player and singer, seamlessly blending traditional Greek music with contemporary influences. Her recent performance with Chrysoula K. & Púrpura was a masterclass in musicality and emotion. With her expressive laouto playing and warm vocals, Ploumi added depth and texture to a diverse repertoire spanning Greece, Argentina, Portugal, Armenia, and Italy. The band’s unique instrumentation—kanun, flute, cello, and laouto—created a rich, immersive soundscape, with Ploumi’s precision and artistry standing out as a highlight. Her synergy with lead singer Chrysoula Kechagioglou and the rest of the ensemble was remarkable, delivering a performance that was both technically impressive and deeply moving. Maria Ploumi’s ability to bridge musical traditions makes her a standout artist in today’s world music scene. Whether leading with her laouto or harmonizing in song, she brings an authenticity and passion that captivates audiences."

"The Latin Formula came to play a corporate party event that we have been running for almost 10 years now. After using the same old band for a while we wanted to shake things up, and almost every guest commented on how TLF were the absolute highlight of the party - and we all agree! Incredibly professional, punctual, a breeze to work with and they made everyone’s night. Couldn’t recommend them enough. Truly a delight to work with and they helped transform our event."
