Dear Friedel,
I would personally like to thank you most sincerely for the most amazing Sax performance you performed for us on Friday 23rd July at StillPoint Country Haven.
We have these product updates each year and I try and provide some form of entertainment for my clients either during or after lunch. I must be honest that your performance has far outstripped any other entertainment that I have organized over the last 10 years. Your choice of music, professionalism and passion is most evident and I received so many compliments that I felt I needed to pass my utmost thanks onto you personally.
Than you so much for creating such a wonderful setting for my clients to sit and relax in over their lunch.
I certainly will recommend your services and look forward to being able to use them again myself.
My very best wishes.

Ons gee vir jou hiermee 'n goeie getuigskrif vir die wonderlike saksofoonbydrae wat jy tot ons bruilof gemaak het. Jou webwerf was maklik, kontraktering was maklik, jy was bereikbaar, buigsaam, op tyd en het gespeel soos verwag.
Baie dankie.

" Dear Friedel,
I would like to take this opportunity to thank for the service rended to me, my Daughter, family and friends on Sunday 22nd November 2009.
When my Daughter decided that she wanted a Saxophone player to play at her Garden wedding at the Birchwood Hotel, and also to play a Van Morrison composition as I walked her down the isle. I was quite sceptical, but your music came across, well planned, professional and beautiful.
Your professionalism and the way you arranged your sound equipment at the service and then at the reception was outstanding, you kept our guests so well entertained while we were have the usual phots taken, and continued until late into the evening. We loved your arrangements with a large variation of music from the Golden oldies to the modern numbers.
Thank you for been so reliable and on time, an absolute pleasure, you most definitely added to the success of the Wedding.
It would be my pleasure to recommend you at anytime.
Regards
