Hitchen Jazz Group
"We saw the biggest ensemble that Hitchen Jazz provides - The Hitchen Big Band, at Montpellier Jazz Club in 2015. They played an excellent concert. David presented the concert all evening in French, with a charming English Accent. We have followed the group ever since, and we also love the Hitchen Jazz Trio. Bravissimo!"
Jazzador
"Here comes the sun...
We wanted to surprise our guests for the vin d'honneur.
We met Lutz and were immediately enthusiastic about the talent and professionalism of Jazzador.
This part of the wedding took place outside and despite the rain and the cold, the quartet was able to put a wonderful sunshine in the hearts of the young and old by making everyone swing and delighting.
A very high quality performance, a kindness and an availability out of the ordinary which made this moment a magic, exceptional and unforgettable moment."
Jazz Bands Monaco—Jazz Central Agency
"An exceptional musical experience from beginning to end. The musicians blended seamlessly into our event while delivering an outstanding performance that impressed every single guest. Highly recommended for anyone looking to create a luxurious atmosphere."
wedding violinist in france
"Gérard was amazing, he went above and beyond, he learned a new song in a totally different style and usually played on a fiddle specifically for our wedding. I strongly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a professional, kind, and responsive musician for their event."
Ferdi Argenti
"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!

Swing Groupe de Musique
"Francesco and his band were amazing! It was so magical having them play for our Tuscan wedding celebrations. They created the perfect ambience and played beautifully! We couldn’t be happier and they made our day very special and memorable! Great communication, wonderful performance- we’d highly recommend them for any occasion. Thank you so much!"
