"A great trio – thanks for playing the lesser-known tunes from the 30s"

"Jesper Hedegaard is almost more Brazilian than Danish. Since 1976, he has devoted his life to Brazilian music, has grown together with the part of it that builds a bridge to jazz. He is a well-known and treasured musician in Brazil and a tireless communicator of the rich Brazilian music in Denmark without, moreover, making a bigger being out of himself. It's the music - that's what it's all about. This is clearly reflected on his latest CD, a modest affair of just over half an hour. The beautiful trio playing with drummer Magno Bissoli and bassist Sidiel Vieira shows Hedegaard at home in the rich borderland between Brazilian and jazz. Apart from two of his own compositions, Jesper Hedegaard plays with a trio of compositions by Lúcio Alves, Ary Barroso, Tom Jobim, Bruno Martino and Bruno Brighetti. Beautiful and endearing with a restraint that helps build tension that sharpens attention. During the apparently effortless, elegantly swinging playing, a dialogue unfolds between the three musicians, which sharpens the desire for more than the record's 33 minutes. However, Bissoli is sometimes so discreet in his playing that he almost disappears. A pity, because here one of Brazil's best and most generous musicians could give the music more edge. It's a trio with great potential. Hopefully the three of them will continue together and make an announcement soon."

"John was exceptional - He truly made our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour memorable. He is an amazingly talented artist who took our song requests on short notice and played them perfectly, with a touch of his own style on Spanish guitar. From setup through to wrap-up, he was engaged with us, the wedding coordinators and the crowd. He enjoys what he does and this passion shines through his music. He had our wedding guests captivated. We recommend John to anyone for any event."

"A precise and discreet person, he accompanied our evening with friends by playing jazz guitar, including manouche style, in a varied yet impeccable way—never overly virtuosic, never banal. The melodies did not take the center stage, providing the perfect background, just as we had requested. A wonderful evening. Thank you, Romeo!"

"This is to say that Gabriel Rosati has completed 6 weeks aboard "Crystal Harmony". During that time he has played in the Quintet and has done an excellent job playing all styles of Dance Band music. I would therefore recommend him, both for his playing and attitude both on & off the stage to any Band leader and can only say that he would be an asset to any band. January 1994"

"David Hitchen's jazz trio played for my daughter's wedding. They played such lovely music, and even played some requests including `La Vie en Rose' and What a Wonderful World. They played some Latin Jazz Music, too which was awesome. We have booked them again for Summer this year. Can't wait! "
