"Dear Ilya, Attached is a copy of you survey you requested. Thank you so much for a beautiful evening. We will never forget how wonderful our wedding was. Your music was absolutely perfect for our wedding. Amanda."

1. Did you like the way you you were treated ? Any comments?

Yes, the assistance that we recieved was very helpful. Having not ever planned a wedding before we needed extra guidance in planning the music with the ceremony and reception. Ilya was able to confidently instruct us on what was appropriate for the ceremony, the reception music was wonderfully planned by Musica Viva.

2. Were you satisfied with our performance quality?

The performances from Musica Viva were beautiful! Not only were we impressed, but our guests complimented us many times about how wonderful the music was throughout our wedding. We were very happy to find that they were professional enough to just come in and move comfortably through the ceremony and reception without any problems. I would trust them to perform up to anyones musical or professional expectations.

3. Would you invite us to perform on your "Silver" and "Gold Weddings"? (not very serious) Sure!

4. General impression left by our performance?

We were very satisfied with the cost, professionalism and performance from Musica Viva. We felt that our wedding was well dressed with beautiful performances from true artists. Musica Viva did not monopolize any setting with over-played or overbearing music. They planned completely appropriate music that was gracefully delivered throughout the entire event. The music played was very polished. We have wedding memories of an amazing evening set to beautiful music that we will always cherish. Thank you to everyone in Musica Viva- we are so blessed to have had you play at our wedding!!!

Good luck to you in your future and I will recommend you to anyone who may need musical accompaniment to a special evening! Amanda Gladwell. - plebeians@yahoo.com

Very professional musicians and reliable business.

Thank you again, Svetlana.

P.S. I only regret that our (picture taking¦ took too much time and we could not hear your orchestra play during the wedding. I have heard from many people that the musicians and the choice of music was fantastic. Thank you a lot!

1.Yes, Ilya and Co. were true professionals. When I asked them to wrap they were outta there. Also, they worked well with the officiant and allowed us to enjoy our special day without worry about coordination.

2. The ensemble's performance was even better than I expected. Not unlike the Grateful Dead, they really shine during the live experience, dude.

3. Would you invite us to perform on your "Silver" and "Gold Weddings"? Yes.

4. Excellent musicianship and a willingness to go the extra mile. When we presented the ensemble with special music that we wanted to have encorporated into our ceremony they came through with exactly what we requested. And not only that, when we had forgotten to provide musical direction in one area of our wedding, Ilya and company played a special Irish tune that was perfect for our event.

No calls please. Those quotes should help you though. Thanks again for your extra effort.

John and Val

Hello Ilya,

Thanks so much for a wonderful performance. Your music lent a touch of elegance to our wedding and reception. We really enjoyed it!

TO answer your specific questions: 1. Yes, we were very happy with how you treated us. Weddings can be stressful for the bride and groom, and you took that all in stride!

3. We will certainly invite you to play at our silver and gold anniversaries.

If I might also add...

I had many of my guest comment on how beautiful the music sounded. Your timing was excellent and that the music was neither overpowering nor difficult to hear. I had some guests comment that the music, along with the outdoor setting, made them feel as though they were "in a movie". Thank you so much for the wonderful performance and we will recommend you to anyone in need of music for a special event!!

Thanks and best of luck to you as well! -Tavi and Jackie Siochi
