"Now my feet are back on the ground post-wedding I just wanted to send a massive THANK YOU to you and the amazing quartet who played at my wedding a couple of weeks ago. They were absolutely brilliant and we had a lot of compliments from people who loved the songs they played! It got our wedding off a beautiful start and helped create a day we'll always remember."

"Brian, was the absolute best wedding DJ! He was a professional, who stayed behind the scenes and allowed the music and our vision for the wedding speak for itself. Brian listened to what we wanted and did a great job seamlessly transitioning all aspects of the wedding. Guests were dancing from the first to last song of the night. He took song requests while keeping our taste in mind. He was really great!! "

"Thank you so much for the wonderful music yesterday. So many guests remarked how lovely it was, and my wife asked me to say that she and her family were so moved by the Schumann and it was perfect."

We loved all the music you played and it created such a wonderfully calm and relaxed atmosphere which the guests really enjoyed. I hope you have had some free time to enjoy the summer a little.

"Dear Rachel Sorry it’s taken me forever to contact you with my sincere thanks for such perfect wedding music. It made my Mum cry through the whole thing. Everyone had the most fantastic time. So thank you, thank you, thank you. So much. (Apologies for not even seeing you in person to say this before you left.) Best Wishes Vicky"

"Hello Rachel, I just wanted to say thank you so much to you and the rest of the quartet for playing such beautiful music at Kathy and Michael’s wedding, you really helped to create such a wonderful atmosphere. I kept hearing snatches of your music from other rooms and it made me feel lovely and festive too! You did a great job during the ceremony making sure you played until exactly the right time. If I am in your area again I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to future clients. Have a wonderful Christmas Andrea x "

"Flatworld played at the Dragon Folk and Roots Music Club. They are an incredible band, we'll worth travelling to (or with) to see them!"

"The girls turned up promptly with a minimum of fuss and just produced a delightful set. My only complaint was that they didn't stop to say goodbye so I could thank them personally! Thank you ladies! "

"One of the hidden treasures of London is the range of talent that exists on the folk and acoustic scene that rarely get the acclaim they deserve. Three London based bands that excel at performing Eastern European/Balkan Music are Szapora, Mukka and Beskydy, each of whom are worth looking out for. Nine strong Beskydy perform songs and tunes from across Eastern Europe and beyond, in fact looking at the sources on their cd listing is almost like a tour around that part of Europe, from Macedonia to Hungary via Galicia and Bulgaria and taking a detour through Slovakia. The bands name itself comes from the range of mountains that run through the centre of former Czechoslovakia which according to the band has heavily influenced their musical choices whilst they turn their hand to music from a range of sources (excellantly). The first track is a Macedonian song, Jovano, Jovanke (click here to hear the song) and the range of Joanna Fosters vocal skills are further displayed in the three Slovakian songs that make up track 4, from the slow Janosik to the more up beat cheery Anicka Dusicka and A Ja Taka Dzivocka although Foster and the band manage to intertwine the tunes with sufficient skill so the songs merge as one. Again Track 9 is a duet with Accordian player, Peter Murphy, joining Foster on the Macedonian song Iz Dolu, along with some damned fine fiddling. The range of Beskydys musical skills are illustrated well by the instrumental tracks ranging from the delightful Slovakian Waltzes (Track 5) to the slightly more manic Tropanka from Bulgaria (track 10) and onto the ordered upbeat and furious synthesis between sax, fiddle and accordian that is Tantz, Tantz Yiddelekh (a wonderful Galician Jewish tune), yet again garunteed to result in limb movement, a delightful fusion of fiddles and saxaphone, furiously creating a wonderful atmosphere one that demands a physical response. One very minor complaint is the sleeve of the CD, it would be nice (or do I just lead a very shallow empty life) to have some information/lyrics or even translations of the songs, something about the origins of the tracks. That said its more than possible for bands with large bank accounts to produce nice extensive sleeves but not so easy for bands whose talents lie in their music rather than some slick marketing agencies. It would be impossible to identify one part of this cd that could be said to stand out more than the rest. The band have produced an album that is thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish - the question that comes to the fore when listening to this is when is the follow up going to be available? "

" Incredibly beautiful vocals and talented pianist! Gal did an incredible job performing at my corporate client's private reception and dinner. In addition to having a beautiful singing voice and mastering the piano, she was extremely professional to work with. She is a great communicator, is reliable and followed through on every detail. We definitely made the right decision hiring Gal and hope to bring her onboard for future events!"

"Unfortunately, we didn't really get to speak to you at our wedding on 20th June. So, I just wanted to say a big thank you to you for playing at our wedding. The music was great and we and our guests really enjoyed it! All the best! "
