"I just want to say Thank you for your playing on Saturday your were excellent, everyone loved you playing. I really appreciated you staying as well. It was lovely meeting you. Thank you once again." "I hired Rory The Saxophonist for my 60th Birthday garden party. Right from the start I knew I’d got the right person. I was very impressed by his quick response to my e-mails, his attention to detail, he put everything we had discussed in a show advance agenda, so immediately I was aware of the itinerary. He provided his repertoire and I chose a list of tunes I wanted him to play. His choice of songs was very eclectic. On the day of the party, Rory arrived by public transport, in plenty time to set up, he had asked me if there was a dress code and dressed accordingly. He brought, a mic, saxophone, shakers, whistles, and DJ set for between sets. Rory made myself and my guests very relaxed, the day was chilled out, fun and uplifting. Rory dazzled us with his skills on the saxophone. Rory also mingled with the guests in between sets. I would definitely recommend Rory for any function. We will definitely book him again. What a fantastic day, made all the better having Rory play. Party date 10th August 2024. Thank you Gwen" Gwen, Private Party, Rory @ Private House, Rawtenstall, Lancashire, August, 2024"

Hi Gwen, Thank you very much for this! It’s perfect. I would like to once again thank you for the opportunity. I loved playing at Zara’s house and meeting you all. It really was fabulous. I send you my warmest wishes, and I look forward to hopefully being in touch about New Year’s Eve, or indeed any other special events and occasions! 🎶 All the best, Rory

"Flora was the epitome of professionalism on the day. She is an amazing talent. Her beautiful singing voice and harp playing were perfect for my husbands memorial service and she added greatly to the occasion. She is a lovely woman to deal with and is quick to respond to any queries. I have no hesitation in recommending her for any occasion. She deserves great success. "

"We booked Andrew for our wedding after deciding that we wanted keyboard piano in the background. From start to finish Andrew was great and discussed with us the different options for the day, it couldn’t have been easier! The wedding itself was perfect the songs we picked sounded amazing in the venue. The guests commented on how lovely the sound was in the background during the ceremony and meal. If you are looking for talent and attention to detail then Andrew is the musician for you. Thanks again."

"Our music evening at Novotel Manchester Centre was elevated by the Rory Duffy Trio. Their talent and skill made for an entirely lovely evening for all of our guests, many of whom commented on how much they enjoyed the performance. I would highly recommend this group again as they were not only talented and played wonderful music but also displayed a high level of professionalism throughout the evening.” - Novotel, Manchester, June 2011"

"Initially, we saw Joie de Vivre, in Winchester and thought how wonderful they would be performing at our wedding. We were not disappointed. Their repertoire of old French classic amourettes were beautifully delivered and extremely varied from Piaf to Brel . All our guests enjoyed listening and singing along as we danced early in the evening before dinner"

"Alan was incredible - both in the lead up and the day itself. He recorded our aisle song for us and shared it ahead of time and even added a new song to his repertoire for us. He was also incredible on the day, and looped part of the song when we had a slight mishap with a relative that meant the precessions were delayed! 10/10 would recommend. Charlotte Crewe"

"Eleanor has performed several of my pieces and each one has been outstanding with excellent feedback from the public. As well as concerts, I have worked with Eleanor in the studio for a recording of a Suite for Flute, Harp and Cello which she took to with enthusiasm and great professionalism. I would highly recommend hiring Eleanor for concerts or as a session musician for studio work."
