Reviews of Jazz Guitarists based near Amsterdam

5/5 from 35 reviews
Photo of Roaming Jazz Trio | Jazz Central Agency Roaming Jazz Trio | Jazz Central Agency "For our wedding, we engaged the jazz center to provide background music for an elegant dinner (6 p.m., with extended hours!). Besides the speeches, which they neatly anticipate without warning, we enjoyed the non-stop background music. The pieces they play live are simply phenomenal! A brilliant example: a baby started crying, and they immediately responded by mixing "Hush, Little Baby" into the current song. Their flexibility and adaptability are superb. We also booked them for a relatively long period, but there was an overrun, and without any problems, they still had the energy to keep going and finished incredibly strong." Based in Amsterdam, North Holland Nina - Wedding Photo of Dupa Trio - Retro Jazz Band Dupa Trio - Retro Jazz Band "we invited Dupa Trio for our annual celebration of the Gememnta Amsterdam, WOW, what a cool band! a super unique approach to the boring and run-over-the-mile jazz band, they have so much character and their singer is amazing! if you can see them play or even book their performance, do it! such a cool band" Based in Amsterdam, North Holland Kitty - Gemente amsterdam Photo of Tommy & James Tommy & James "For our wedding we were looking for something unique and special. Through friends we were tipped off about Tommy and James. They had just been at a wedding where Tommy and James moved through the room playing the most delicious Jazz-pop music." Translated from Dutch Based in Haarlem, North Holland (11 miles from Amsterdam) Jord & Tessa Rosmalen - wedding Photo of East West Rest Trio East West Rest Trio "East West Rest Trio performed traditional at my 40th birthday party and they made it happen! We coordinated in advance about taste and preferences. They brought their instruments across the country and treated us to a warm and wonderful jazz performance. Giannis, Tian and Imanol, thank you, your art and commitment were very much appreciated! I can heartily recommend this trio."

Frequently asked questions

Pricing for jazz guitarists ranges from €150 to €1,250+, with an average of €450. Rates depend on the guitarist's experience, performance duration and whether the booking is for a solo performance, a duo or a larger ensemble. Jazz guitarists are a popular choice for background music at receptions, dinners and cocktail events.

The jazz guitarists for hire perform a range of jazz styles including swing, bossa nova, gypsy jazz, smooth jazz, bebop and jazz-funk. Many also cover popular songs and standards in a jazz style. The jazz guitar has a warm, mellow tone that suits both background and featured performances.

Common events for jazz guitarists include cocktail receptions, corporate dinners, wedding ceremonies, restaurant entertainment and private parties. A solo jazz guitarist provides sophisticated, unobtrusive live music that enhances the atmosphere without overpowering conversation.

Many jazz guitarists offer flexible formats including solo performances, duo or trio settings (often with double bass and drums), and as part of larger jazz ensembles. It is advisable to discuss the best format for your event and venue.

For intimate settings, many jazz guitarists can perform without amplification. For larger venues or events with background noise, a small amplifier is typically used. Most jazz guitarists bring their own equipment. For the best experience, confirm the setup based on the venue.

Sitting in with an existing line-up is normal work for jazz players, who are used to reading charts and following a standard repertoire with little rehearsal. Agreeing a set list, or at least a shared songbook, is what makes it work. Where the other musicians are booked separately, say so at the enquiry stage, as it changes what the guitarist prepares.

A solo player normally works in sets of around 45 minutes with short breaks between them, and unbroken playing across a long dinner is quoted differently. Whether the music has to be continuous is worth deciding early, since it changes both the fee and whether a second player is worth adding. Most will say how long they can comfortably play in one stretch if asked.

A single guitar suits rooms of up to around a hundred guests once amplified, beyond which the sound thins against the noise of a crowd. For larger events players usually suggest adding a second instrument rather than turning the volume up. Guest numbers and room size are what decide this, not the style of music being played.
