Review Centre: 1940s Era Musicians & Bands

"Stephen was patient with me as I was planning a memorial service for my father. I changed my mind a couple of times and Stephen just rolled with the changes. He met my wife for a rehearsal session and then nailed the performance during the ceremony. Stephen also provided some lovely and background and mood music prior to the service and jumped-in with musical accompaniment during the congregational hymns."

"Thank you so much for performing on our wedding day. The weather was great and the guests on the terrace enjoyed your sets. The guests comments were very complimentary, you were very much appreciated by them. It was exactly what I had envisaged so you fulfilled a dream for me. So once again please accept and extend our sincere thanks to all concerned."

"He knows how to get a party going! Not just for the youngsters but the oldies as well. Nothing too much trouble and if he didn’t have it he found it from somewhere. Great job!"

"I booked Bella Swing Band for an Italian themed cocktail party for a pop up shop launch in London. They were flexible with numbers and budget for me (I only needed a 3 piece, not the traditional 5 piece group). They also had to play outside and we're very accommodating of that and brought their own speakers / soft music btw sets. So I didn't need to worry about anything music related on the evening which was a real relief. And they were great. They really lifted and helped make the party a huge success and were truly perfect for our event. I had them sing only Italian themed songs, but they would be wonderful at any style of jazz performance. Easy to work to work with and incredibly professional - I highly recommend."

"You made our event go with a real swing and added to the sunshine of everyone’s day! Your musical skill brought so much pleasure, especially because you played the trumpet as well as singing all our favourites. You had a lovely way with the residents and were so inclusive that everyone wanted to get up and join in. It’s a good job you brought a second microphone and some instruments for us to play! Staff, residents and visitors were all up dancing and we have the photographs to prove it! We are all looking forward to your next visit and know that you will be a regular feature on our activities calendar. Laura Duncan. Activities Coordinator. Glendon House, Overstrand. "

"Marcia Bamberg and her Swing Quartet opened the Django Gypsy Festival in The Hague. Excellent vocals as expected from a vocal coach, gives swing jazz another layered dimension. Marcia has a seasoned professional band and most are familiar with the bass player Daniël Gueli, who also works / plays with many other artists like Paulus Schafer, Stochelo Rosenberg, Mozes Rosenberg, and many others here in the EU. Daniël is also a very nice guy along with his talent. Watch for Marcia Bamberg Swing Quartet upcoming shows. She and fellow musicians are worth reviewing and following."

"They played a variety of music for us and even made our announcements throughout the night. They helped keep everything on schedule and had everyone out dancing. We had so many compliments on their music and how good they were. Our guests really and truly had a great time and loved the music"
