"We hired Duo Sun for a private event in Verona, and their performance was nothing short of extraordinary. The duo’s violin and piano created an atmosphere that was both refined and deeply moving, capturing the attention and admiration of everyone in attendance. Their musicality is incredible; each piece was played with precision, emotion, and a keen understanding of the audience and setting. What impressed us most was their professionalism—they arrived early, coordinated perfectly with the venue staff, and adapted seamlessly to the space and acoustics. Guests frequently commented on how the live music elevated the entire experience, making it feel intimate, elegant, and unforgettable. Duo Sun’s ability to combine technical mastery with artistry and warmth is rare, and their performance truly transformed our event. We would hire them again in an instant and recommend them without reservation for weddings, private celebrations, or corporate occasions."

"We would like to thank Dreamy Duo for coming along to our gala in July. They created a really great atmosphere, the playlist was great from soft ballads to more rhythmic songs. They engaged with the audience and their dance corner was full. Definitely a night to remember!! You won’t regret booking them. "

"Karl is amazing. I had a cancellation from another pianist with a very short window of a month to find a replacement. I had to case a wide net and audition several pianists for this album recording. Karl was eager, communicated very quickly and with great professionalism. He submitted his video audition and had a wonderful control and harmony that I rarely hear from qualified players. He won his audition beating out 5 other pianists. Not only did he learn the repertoire in a short timeframe, but he played and recording 2 albums with me in two days. He worked his ass off and did an amazing job! We had visitors from the Norway choir that stopped by and he played for them with a standing ovation. I cannot recommend Karl highly enough. He is talented, kind, and has an amazing work ethic. It was a pleasure and now I know why he is Karl the GREAT!"

Studhalter MUSIC AGENCY STUDHALTER Reference for Michel Polyayk On December 31, 2024, we had the pleasure of engaging Mr. Polyayk as pianist for our New Year's Eve gala dinner at the Sunstar Hotel in Klosters. His performance was a perfect accompaniment to our 7-course menu and contributed significantly to the evening's elegant and festive atmosphere. After midnight, he managed to engage and entertain our guests for an hour, which wonderfully rounded off the evening. His professional and well-groomed demeanor, as well as his appealing appearance, left a lasting impression on us and our guests. The quality of the music was outstanding and a perfect match for a very successful evening. We can wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Polyayk and look forward to working with him in the future. Sincerely, Tobias Georg Host Sunstar Hotel Klosters Review of Michael Poliak Perfect from A to Z Mr. Poliak arrived earlier than scheduled, impressed all of our wedding guests with his excellent performances and refined appearance, and accommodated any requests. He played a Steinway grand piano in the ballroom of Heidegg Castle, which perfectly suited his personality. We would recommend him to anyone. Many thanks again, Mr. Poliak, and see you soon.

"Dinner Jazz Duo were absolutely fantastic. They created a wonderful vibe for our outdoor summer birthday party. One of the guests is a jazz singer at Uni and they encouraged her to sing a couple of numbers with them, which made for a wonderful moment. They are great musicians and conducted themselves very professionally throughout. Would highly recommend."

"Ed was just brilliant; he played exactly the style of music we had requested and kept a perfect mood throughout the whole evening. He started a little bit early and finished a little bit late. All our guests remarked upon his professionalism and his musical talent. He was simply the best! He listened to what we described as our perfect musical evening and he delivered perfection. His mellow jazz style set the tone for the evening and everyone loved his music. It was not intrusive, but it was always there. That ensured there were no dull silences during dinner. In addition, he was a perfect gentleman…something of a rarity these days. We would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone."

"What Ferdie can do that nobody else does (to the extent that he does it) is sing his heart out, and then play his heart out-- his vocal and instrumental expressions are equally strong. It's not like he's trying to get a gig at the local Holiday Inn lounge, no!--he belongs in the concert hall! Larry Coryell (from the liner notes to "Look for the silver lining" album by Ferdinando Argenti"
