"As the year comes to a close I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and your musicians for your musical contributions during our various parties and events at the Guggenheim Museum in 1996.

Since your first performance during our 'Evening to Thank Our Corporate Supporters' in our Frank Lloyd Wright-designed rotunda in our uptown museum, we continue to be impressed by your talents as you provide music for our various parties. Your professionalism and talent has allowed us to recommend Just Jazz to other event planners of private corporations who hold functions in our uptown and SoHo museums. We are truly confident in your talents and are impressed, though not surprised, at how you continue to satisfy those who we recommend Just Jazz to.

I do not doubt that we will continue to secure your services, as well as recommend you, for more events at the Guggenheim Museum in the next year."

wedding reception
Boston, 2001

"Ahmad and I wanted to thank you for playing at our wedding and reception at the Top of the Hub on April 7th. I can't tell you how many compliments we received, not only from the guests but also from the hotel and restaurant staff.
I also wanted to thank you for your professionalism during the planning process. We pulled our wedding together in a very short timeframe, and from out-of-state.

Your web site was a big help for us in selecting our music, and you confidently handled all my questions. The whole planning process was stress-free for me -- the way it should be. And during the event, everything went so smoothly and was so much fun. You helped to make our wedding perfect for us! We have already recommended you to many of our friends and family."

"On behalf of The Deafness Research Foundation, we would like to thank you for your support and hard work in helping to make the "Celebration of Hearing Health Gala" a great success.

We could not have done it without you! Every little detail of the event was extremely important. The performance was remarkable and we have received lots of compliments on the reception and dinner music. We were impressed by the patience, flexibility and skill you demonstrated in dealing with the many unexpected demands that the event placed on us.

Once again, we are grateful for your generosity and tireless efforts. We look forward to working with you in the future." ~~ Orr Associates, Inc.

"I want to thank you very much for the music that you have provided for my events over the past year. Whether I was hosting a 500 person dinner for ING Barings at the New York Historical Society or organizing a small function for a law firm at The Penthouse, your music has always been a key ingredient to successful evenings.

As you well know, attention to detail is very important to the success of my functions. Whenever Just Jazz provides the musicians, I am confident that l am furnishing high quality, elegant music for my clients. In fact, my piano never sounds better than when it is being played by one of your pianists. And if the party requires dancing, as last month's event did, your trio certainly supplies the swing to get people up and moving.

Again, I want to thank you and Just Jazz for all the wonderful music that you have provided Andy King Events. l look forward to planning many more successful functions, using your music as the finishing touch."

"It just doesn't seem like enough to say 'thanks' for all of your hard work and effort on the recent McKinsey Consulting event. We definitely put together a first rate team for this event and your contribution to the success of this program is no exception. Your flexibility during the planning process, prompt responsiveness, and positive-attitude throughout was greatly appreciated.

It's refreshing to work with companies like Just Jazz because we can count on quality. Due to the preparedness on your end, I was able to focus more fully on the operational elements of the event.

Thank you again for all of your efforts. It was a pleasure working with you and your crew and we look forward to working with you on future programs. ~~ Proactive, Inc."

"When Michael and I were planning our wedding, this time last year, the only thing that was clear to us was that we wanted the musical component of our festivities to be special: moving, personal, and brilliantly executed. Neither of us could bear the thought of anything formulaic or corny or, God Forbid, "wedding-y".

The set your trio performed on our wedding fulfilled all our musical hopes for the day . From the choice of the pieces you played, to the enthusiasm and skill with which you and your bandmates performed, your contribution to our big moment was unforgettable: brilliant, unusual, romantic jazz at its best.

We both wish you all the best and continuing success in your career as a musician. And of course thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for the musical feast you offered our guests on that magical day last September."

"I wanted to say thank you for such a great job at our April Board Dinner. Over the years, Just Jazz has been such an attribute during all of our events here at Metlife which required music. Our holiday parties are always a joy when your bands are playing, and you make our job easier because we never have to worry about the quality and reliability of your music services.

Thanks again, and we look forward to working with you on future events!"
