Photo of Amar Corda Amar Corda "Absolutely great band and nice people! They played for the aperitivo of our wedding party. All our guests where talking about them! Will book them again when I have an opportunity." Based in Bologna, Emilia-Romagna (23 miles from Modena) Jan Steender - Wedding Party Photo of The Peter Sellers The Peter Sellers "Great! Brilliant repertoire, very available, elegant and very charming!" Translated from Italian Based in Bagnacavallo, Emilia-Romagna (54 miles from Modena) Marco Arrisi - festa privata Photo of Chill and Chic by Nalìs Chill and Chic by Nalìs "Annalisa, Michele and Roberto were our trio for one of the most magical nights we could've hoped for. They are incredibly talented, and it was absolutely the highlight of our trip to Italy. WOW!! Thank you for making our night feel like a dream. They were fun, professional, kind and the pure JOY was very evident as they each shared their God-given gifts. <3 Thank you for a moment we'll never forget." Based in Florence, Tuscany (62 miles from Modena) Jill Colclasure Photo of Ferdi Argenti 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! Larry Coryell (from the liner notes to "Look for the silver lining" album by Ferdinando Argenti" Based in Fucecchio, Tuscany (64 miles from Modena) Larry Coryell - Internationally known jazz guitarist Photo of Sara Longo, jazz singer, jazz band. Sara Longo, jazz singer, jazz band. "Sara Longo has been recommended from a friend, who is a booking agent in jazz festivals. She has a descrete caracter but what a voice!! Always ready to help, she is stunningly professional in the choice of her musicians and of her repertoire. She ends up making everybody happy, but can also move the crown with those wonderful Napolitan ballads. I want more!!!!" Based in Venice, Veneto (88 miles from Modena) 6th October 2026 Jason L. - private event Photo of Italian Swing Band Italian Swing Band "An amazing band that made us sing and dance! They are truly excellent musicians and many of our friends have asked us how we found them! Traditional Italian music and first class Jazz! Emanuele's been so kind during the wedding preparation period with video calls, he was always kind and helpful with us, we wrote him too many messages on WhatsApp :) Thanks again for the beautiful memories we will take with us! Good luck!" Based in Siena, Tuscany (94 miles from Modena) Jaime Prieto - Wedding reception
