Photo of Jazz Bands Luxembourg —Jazz Central Agency Jazz Bands Luxembourg —Jazz Central Agency "The music created exactly the atmosphere we were looking for—elegant, subtle, and never overpowering. From the booking process to the performance itself, everything was handled professionally and exceeded our expectations." Based in Luxembourg City, Luxembourg (136 miles from Freiburg) 3rd July 2026 Inez de Wit - Office Event Photo of Hot Club du Nax Hot Club du Nax "The Hot Club du Nax played at our Zug Jazz Night this summer and they where truly amazing, great people and superb musicians. Hope to see you soon again! Oskar" Based in Innsbruck, Tyrol, Austria (173 miles from Freiburg) Oskar Furrer - Jazz Night Zug Photo of Vento do Sul/ Tribute to Chet Baker Vento do Sul/ Tribute to Chet Baker "They sound amazing. We enjoyed our time listening to their beautiful music. They played beautifull Bossa novas from Carlos Jobim." Based in Brussels, Brussels Capital, Belgium (252 miles from Freiburg) Flora McRitchie - Private dinner Photo of Uke Swing Uke Swing "With their swing they brought joy to everyone. With their elegance and delicacy they added magic to our May evening. A passionate and special group. A group of singing hearts and playing hearts. In short, I recommend them with all my heart. Donia" Translated from Italian Based in Genoa, Liguria, Italy (254 miles from Freiburg) Donia - Wedding party Photo of Ellen & Paddy sing Ella & Louis Ellen & Paddy sing Ella & Louis "A trio evoking the famous albums of 1956 et 1957: Ella & Louis, Ella & Louis Again), the trio is completed by César (in the role of Oscar Peterson). In a cellar bar in Paris 6th called the Tennessee, on a tiny stage but surrounded by a massive public already conquered by the group and the atmosphere they create - It feels like we are at a friends reunion. The first set is consecrated to the recreation of the mythical duo: («Can’t We Be Friends?», «Isn’t a Lovely Day?», «They Can’t Take That Away From Me») But through the filter of Paddy et Ellen. We are in homage and never in imitation (except for the odd humoristic wink to the original). They especially bring to life a music the gives great joy and pleasure The trio is perfect in total complicity Paddy as always full of colour and vigour. Ellen – better known for her soul repertoire – reveals herself to be an excellent jazz singer absolutely in Ella’s register. César, very serious behind them plays beautiful harmonies. A wonderfully entertaining evening." Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region, France (259 miles from Freiburg) 18th September 2026 JazzHot magazine, France. - Public gig in Paris at Tenessee Bar Photo of The Velvet Keys The Velvet Keys "I wholeheartedly recommend Ciarri for any corporate event, private function or venue seeking sophistication and class, with some sultriness. I have worked with Ciarri on many events and her artistry consistently elevated each occasion, leaving lasting impressions on our guests. Her performances—whether on the iconic rooftop of Hotel Raphaël or the exclusive Cité de l'architecture et du patrimoine with panoramic Eiffel Tower views—were warm, unforgettable and stylish at every setting. Ciarri's professionalism, reliability and meticulous attention to detail made her a valued partner and why I worked with her time and time again. Any organization would be fortunate to collaborate with such a dedicated, versatile, and inspiring performer."
