Just a short note to say thank you so much for making Angela's party such a special night on Saturday. Everyone adored the Ensemble, as was clear from the packed dance floor.
Singled out for special praise were your pianist, bass player and incredible multi-tasking saxophonist/flautist.
One of your greatest new fans is on the house committee at the Club and has pocketed a card with the intention of re-booking you for future events.
I hope that you all had a safe trip back to Manchester and am so grateful to you all for making the trip over, as well as our evening. (40th Birthday party at Southport Cricket club).

………... The Jazz band <The Oscar Bernhardt Ensemble> were absolutely amazing. I loved them and everyone commented how great they were. Please pass on my thanks to the band as I didn't’t really get a chance to speak to them on the night. I would definitely recommend them to anyone else.

We just wanted to write a short letter to thank you and the rest of the Oscar Bernhardt Ensemble for making our wedding day so memorable. You all played fantastically and really added to the ambience of the evening. We saw friends of ours up on the dance floor we’d never even see dance before!
Thanks for all your hard work, etc (Wedding)

The Oscar Bernhardt Ensemble was outstanding. You were even better than your demo CD! As a professional musician, I have to say that you were FANTASTIC. WE have had so many compliments concerning the band. People enjoyed both dancing and listening to your music. Even the teenagers at the wedding thought you were amazing!
I wanted a swing band in honour of my Dad who used to be a jazz musician. Living in Paris I was slightly worried about finding a band that plays in tune! When I heard your demo I was knocked out by your professionalism, outstanding quality, musicianship and electric vibe!
My brother has already booked you for his wedding next year! You were sooooo funky – The Marquee: with your music, dim lighting and international ambiance resembled a chic New York jazz club (Wedding)

Hope you had a good journey back from London on Wednesday, following our Cocktail Party.
This is just to say a big thank you to you and the other chaps for all your hard work in helping to make the party go with a swing. You pitched it just right and we had many complimentary remarks on your behalf, which I am only too pleased to pass on. It has been a pleasure to work with you and I shall have no hesitation in recommending you. (Corporate function)

Thanks again so much, the music was spot on at our wedding! Everybody enjoyed it! Including Gemma's 89 year old grandad! Did you see him move on the dance floor! I think this was a measure of your performance, your music caters for all ages and tastes! It was fantastic!! We keep playing your demo CD to remind us of our great day!!! (Wedding)

Once again, many thanks for the smashing programme you and the Ensemble put together for the dinner at Salters' Hall last month. I have had many gushing comments on the playing and the choice of pieces and I know you went down particularly well with one of my noble Law Lord colleagues, T L, who cannot believe that a stuffy ..…….. chemist like me can know such excellent players. (Dinner at Salters Hall attended by The Lord Mayor of the City of London).

I write to thank you and your fellow musicians for leading the party at the Stanneylands after F and M’s wedding. Your music was much enjoyed and had feet tapping all night, even for those who could not dance. I had to spend time out of the room looking after a child but each time I did return the floor was busy and people were obviously enjoying what you played. (Wedding)

Just a quick note to thank you very much for your efforts on Thursday evening. All the guests, without exception, thoroughly enjoyed themselves and everyone at Magnus are more than happy with the overall result.
Thank you once again for your efforts. (Corporate function)

Just wanted to say thank you to you and to Oscar Bernhardt Ensemble for making our Silver Wedding Celebration so special. The band were fantastic and everybody had a great time. (Silver wedding anniversary)

As I said on the phone yesterday, we really enjoyed the music you provided for our wedding last weekend. The ensemble was perfect for the venue and we and our guests really enjoyed the music you played. We were a very discerning audience, but the admiration was universal. (Wedding)

Yet again words can’t express how much the band meant to both of us. They were the best entertainment and played beautiful music. A few friends actually thought it was a CD until I asked them to turn round and see the double bass etc. They were stars. They interacted well with the guests, my family thought of them very fondley. I have shouted from the roof tops about this band and some friends get married next year therefore I have given them your email address for the same guys we had. (Wedding)

We just wanted to write to say thankyou for your wonderful performance at our wedding at the Saddleworth Hotel on Sunday 9th March. We had a wonderful day and the music you played really was the icing on the cake. We really enjoyed dancing to your music and our guests commented on how wonderfully you played and how nice it was to be able to talk to friends and relatives they hadn’t seen for a while whilst being entertained by such great music. (Wedding)

We wanted to drop you a quick line to thank you for playing at our wedding. The band was fantastic and helped make our evening a spectacular success! We both thought the whole band was very professional and smart, and that your sets were very fitting for the evening reception.
With very best wishes etc. (Wedding)

A big thank you for such a brilliant night to celebrate our wedding! We thoroughly enjoyed your music and so did all our guests – Everyone complimented you! (Wedding)

Thank you for your brilliant performance at our wedding. It was much appreciated and helped to make our day so perfect. Lots of people commented on how much they enjoyed your music and we will have no hesitation to recommend yourselves to others. (Wedding)

Just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you for the wonderful music you supplied for our wedding day. You provided a perfect end to what had been for us a perfect day. The sound quality was superb and we were thrilled that you were able to us the piano at Augill. I know that Simon and Wendy, the owners of Augill, will be recommending you for future events and we certainly hope that we will run into you again in the future. (Wedding)

Just a few words to thank you and the members of the Band for your efforts on Friday at our Civic Ball. … many people have commented about the music and
how much they enjoyed it. Thank you once again for making the evening a success. (Civic Ball)

Just a short note to say a big thank you for performing at our wedding and how grateful we are for your enthusiasm, professionalism and reliability. Having chosen a 50’s theme, but nothing too over the top, you pitched it perfectly and added to a perfect day. We loved every minute of your performance – especially Dad! You created a truly memorable atmosphere for our day. We would have no hesitation recommending you to our friends. (Wedding)

Thank you for providing us with such excellent entertainment during the evening. All the guests enjoyed your performance greatly and your presence was in large part responsible for such a successful evening.
Would you please let me know whether you are available for a similar bash!…… (Cheshire Business Event Gala Dinner).

Thank you very much for helping to make our wedding day and evening so special. Your band really made it and watching you back on our wedding video it is still as good if not better with out the influence of alcohol! I would and will really recommend you to any of my friends that are planning to get married or are having a party.
Thank you very much and we hope to be having you play at one of our parties again soon. (Wedding)
