"We hired Duo Sun for a private party in Venice, and their performance was absolutely stunning. From the moment they began playing, the music filled the space with elegance and charm. The duo is extremely talented, with impeccable technique and a great sense of timing and dynamics. They were professional, punctual, and very easy to communicate with, which made planning our event stress-free. The variety in their repertoire ensured that every guest enjoyed the music, and their ability to adapt to the venue and atmosphere was remarkable. We cannot recommend Duo Sun highly enough for any event requiring live violin and piano music."

"We hired this duo for a private celebration, and they were simply outstanding. The level of musicianship is immediately clear—they are highly trained professionals. The violin filled the space with a warm and rich tone, while the piano added depth and structure. They created a perfect balance between lively and more intimate moments, adapting seamlessly throughout the evening. Many of our guests asked for their contact details because they were so impressed. In addition to their talent, they were incredibly elegant, discreet, and friendly. They truly added value to the entire event. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for high-quality live music."

"Kulturhuset Bølgen in Ålsgårde is a rare combination of concert hall and restaurant. Hornbæk Jazzklub hosts their events here every first Friday of the month. There is room for more than 100 diners, who take their seats an hour and a half before the music begins. When the musicians take the stage, the lights in the hall are dimmed and the tables retract, and the place becomes a concert hall, where the audience does not have to move, but can remain in their good seats at the tables. The bar is silent when the music is playing, but during the break it wakes up to action, like another Holger Danske, and rattles, not with the saber, but with glasses, bottles, coffee and cake. The audience mingles both with each other and with the musicians, and a temporary close and beautiful community emerges. It was the same good atmosphere that prevailed among the musicians when Jesper Hedegaard presented his Sound of Brasil at Bølgen on Friday. The Brazilian Samba has many ramifications, and each rhythm has its own life and its own name. Jesper Hedegaard knows a lot about that, having lived in Brazil for many years. He came there in 1976 and made friends who he took with him to Denmark. Some still live here, others have returned home and new ones have joined. On Friday it was bassist Sidiel Vieira and drummer Celso de Almeida. When they play it looks playful, but that's only because they are masters of their instruments. The music flows from them, like a tsunami, whose enormous power is not noticed until it meets resistance. On Friday, there was no opposition for Jesper Hedegaard can his sambas and the evening's soloist was world class. It was Alexander Kraglund who, without a single note, played the most terrific Brazilian violin and viola with countless small shifts in the rhythmic and surprising harmony changes in the melodic, which is an essential detail of the music. Alexander Kraglund mostly played the viola and the deep timbre blended beautifully with Jesper Hedegaard's piano playing, which mostly took place in the high register. The bassist played counterrhythm and very little walking bass as in jazz. He played merrily with the already dancing rhythms in moody counterplay and he could frolic freely thanks to the fact that the drummer provided a non-slip surface for the music. The evening's many different pieces of music were a mixture of Jesper Hedegaard's own compositions and the bossa nova that Antonio Carlos Jobim started in the early 60s with A Girl From Ipanema. One is to play the violin, another is to play the harmonica, and Alexander Kraglund used this instrument in about half of the pieces. In his violin playing, there were almost no references to Svend Asmussen, which is surprising. In the harmonica playing there was great inspiration from Toots Thielemans. Jesper Hedegaard may not be the world's best-known pianist, but by thinking of another pianist, namely Chick Corea (who plays at Kulturværftet at the end of April), and some of his samba-inspired compositions such as La Fiesta and Amando's Rhumba, you get a sense of the music that was played at Bølgen on Friday. The fact that Bølgen's own sound man, Casper Skovgaard, also knows which buttons to touch and not to touch is the extra quality that Bølgen has and that many other venues can only dream of."

"Marini is a very talented pianist and violinist and a pleasure to have around! She plays piano in our church's youth and main service, where she really sets the atmosphere. When she plays violin at church as well, her full arrangements shows that she puts lot of skill and heart behind her craft. We are blessed to have her!"

"We booked Pianist-Berne for a private birthday dinner in Neuchâtel, and he exceeded all expectations. His piano playing was flawless, and he created a sophisticated yet cozy ambiance that perfectly matched the tone of the evening. He played everything from Bach to The Beatles, each piece with care and artistry. He’s very intuitive and seems to read the room effortlessly. Several of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the live music and how it made the night feel extra special. We will definitely invite him again for future family celebrations. He’s a rare talent and a true professional."
