These are professionals who play on Broadway. They are incredibly talented and they sound terrific! They are also accommodating as to type of music and specific songs. And they are very friendly to interact with. They work with a singer/entertainer (optional) who is also very good. I cannot recommend them enough. You won't go wrong if you book them.
--Debbie B. Tenafly, NJ 10/30/2005
As a professional woodwind performer myself, I had very high standards as I was looking for a saxophone quartet to perform at my wedding. After auditioning several groups that did not meet my standards, I finally found Metamorphic Winds. Their talent and performance level were unmatched. I was totally satisfied with the end result. I would highly recommend them, and plan on hiring them again myself.
