Review Centre: Bossa Nova Bands

"We booked Rory for our daughter's 21st where he played the piano for a relaxed drinks reception in the house, followed by sax working with the DJ in a much more lively party setting afterwards over at our annexe. Rory blended in perfectly in both settings, with relaxed sets being played on the piano followed by very engaged, immersive sets with the sax on the dance floor with our guests. He really just gets on with his thing and really made the event that extra special and received a ton of compliments from some very happy guests. We would whole heartedly recommend."

"Rory provided the musical background to our wedding at Old Marylebone Town Hall and after party at home. He was superb, both creating a wonderful mood, and interpreting what we wanted. We (my wife and I) couldnt more highly recommend him. Craig and Dina 01.08.22"

"Great event. We loved the music and Rory was completely professional and helpful right from the initial planning to the performance. We loved that he could play both sax and flute, that was very nice contrast. Our guests loved the performance and enjoyed the ambience. Many thanks from our guests and Team."

"We would like to give big thanks to Rory and the band for their performance at our wedding reception in Cheshire on May 21st this year. The jazz trio were great and enjoyed by everyone, they helped make our evening special - just what we hoped for! Rory was very professional and helpful and we would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone. Please pass our thanks on to Rory. Best regards, Liam and Rachel."

"Rory headlined the annual Painswick Feast Festival 2023. He created a lovely ambience with beautiful Bossa Nova arrangements complemented with saxophones, flute, and vocals in both Portuguese and English, bringing the sunshine out of all who attended. Many visitors and locals stopped, listened, and picnicked to the music of Rory. Weeks later, and he is still being talked about! Rory was a huge success and already booked again for 2024 through public demand."

"I recently enjoyed a performance by País Tropical duo that was absolutely captivating. Their infectious rhythms and soulful melodies brought the vibrant spirit of Brazil to life, blending traditional bossa nova with contemporary influences. The guitarist’s intricate strumming and the vocalist’s warm, expressive voice created an intimate atmosphere that had the audience swaying and smiling throughout the set. Each song was a delightful journey, showcasing their undeniable chemistry and passion for the music. It was a truly enchanting experience that left everyone longing for more!"

"Last summer, we were delighted with the performance of saxophonist / clarinettist Rory and pianist exploring the music of George Gershwin. This summer, Rory enchanted the audience with his fusion of acoustic Latin with Brazilian music, jazz and soul and the arrangements were tastefully orchestrated with guitar and percussion. It made for an engaging performance. We hope to have him back again soon!"

"Last Wednesday evening arrived in Þorlákshöfn the Brazilian Jazz Singer Jussanam da Silva and her pianist Agnar Mar Magnusson. They are on tour through the Nordic countries, and began the journey with a concert in Iceland. The concert brought Bossa Nova, the Brazilian jazz, mixed with Pop songs. The concert it was very fun and kept the audience in ecstasy and restorative into the night after the concert. Those who missed the concert can breathe easy because Jussanam and Agnar will play a concert with the same program in the Tónlistarskóla Árnesinga next Saturday"
