Review by Anne P.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on December 25, 2023•From Taneytown, MD

This group somehow managed to make our father’s 80th elegant, yet easy. Their range of music and talent seemed boundless. Everyone, from the two-year-old to the 82-year-old had a lovely time. From the ambient music while we ate that was just soft enough to allow conversations between friends reuniting after decades - to the little bit of “swing” that got us on the dance floor to practice our dips. It was perfect. THEY were perfect. Highest recommendations….

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on December 23, 2023•From Reston, VA

Paul Schnur and his group, Al Fresco were perfect for my event, a birthday party with 70 attendees. I needed a trio that could play smooth jazz. They provided a keyboard, base and sax and their repertoire encompassed old standards and newer pieces. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed them. I would hire them again.

Engagement Party•Reviewed on March 26, 2023•From York, PA

The Al Fresco trio were simply fantastic! They performed for our son’s engagement party for 2.5 hours, provided a plethora of songs, executed flawlessly, and sounded phenomenal. They were professional and accomodating in their person and craft. Thank you, Paul and band members for making our celebration just perfect!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 26, 2023•From Gaithersburg, MD

We booked the five-piece jazz ensemble “Al Fresco” (sax, vocalist, piano, bass and drums) for my 70th birthday party and they were incredible the entire night. Before booking, I had provided a summary of what I was looking for and Al Fresco met every wish, knocking it out of the park completely. We hosted 100 guests at the event and danced the night away, with everyone repeatedly regaling the band’s sophisticated upbeat sound. They are an amazingly talented group and we are already looking for another celebration opportunity to book them again. I highly recommend them for any live band venue.

This is the THIRD time we've had the alfresco jazz ensemble at a family event. They are talented musicians and our guests are always impressed. Communication with Paul is a breeze. I highly recommend them.

Wedding•Reviewed on October 11, 2021•From Gaithersburg, MD

Al Fresco is a group of talented and professional artists who are willing to take your event up a notch! Their music selection was excellent, and their spectrum of songs was broad. It seems like Jazz and American classics are their specialties, but they are also good at playing other contemporary songs as well. What I really appreciate is their willingness to help and communicate. Al Fresco was transparent and ready to hear my requests from the gecko. I appreciate their commitment and contribution to our wedding ceremony and reception, and I would highly recommend Al Fresco to anyone planning to organize any party and gathering.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 2, 2019•From Washington, DC

We hired Al Fresco to play at our wedding based on their recordings and very positive feedback on gigmasters, and we were not disappointed. Paul, the bandleader, could not have been more easy to work with in the lead up to the wedding, and the music was perfect. This band was such a great addition to our night (many of our guests have since said the same to me), and I cannot recommend them enough for your own wedding or event.

Al Fresco Jazz Ensemble was a wonderful addition to our daughter's wedding at McClintock Distillery. The bad played during guest arrival and the cocktail party. They were very well received and enjoyed by all guests..young and old! I would highly recommend Al Fresco for your special event.

I am so happy to have met Paul,Eric and Ron and enjoy their music. The music was wonderful and they played a very special song for us per my request. I am trying to think of an excuse to have another party so that I can have them back! My husband-the guest of honor- , a jazz lover, was thrilled!!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 30, 2018•From Chevy Chase, MD

Al Fresco did a fabulous job playing our wedding reception this past weekend!! The guests raved about how talented they were and how perfectly they set the mood for the party that followed. Paul was incredibly patient and accommodating as our plans came together and continued to shift at the last minute, was very responsive throughout the planning process, and always made us feel like we were in good hands. Hope we have another chance to hear them again in the future, and highly recommend them!!
