Customer Testimonials
“Thank you to you and your colleagues for the wonderful music at yesterday's wedding at the Fairmont. You all performed brilliantly and it absolutely made the ceremony come together.â€
—Megan Weisberg, MW Weddings
“I just wanted to thank you for your ensemble's wonderful performance that afternoon of October 9 at the Palace of Fine Arts Rotunda. I apologize that I never got the chance to talk with you in person, but we loved your music. Thank you especially for the lovely renditions of the two custom pieces, Valse d'Amelie and Such Great Heights. They were just perfect. Best wishes for a wonderful musical future to you all.â€
—Morgan, groom
“I can't thank you enough. Andy was terrific. He was incredibly easy to work with, flexible, and truly set the tone for the evening. I will definitely recommend the Conservatory to other groups. Thanks again.â€
—Peter, art gallery owner
“I wanted to send a quick thank you to you and your group for working so well together to make Katie & Greg's wedding completely perfect. Even with the GG Bridge celebration, we were able to still run the wedding without missing a beat, and that is all in part to you all being extra attentive about the possible traffic delays, etc. The music was beautiful, and many guests commented to me on this as well. I truly appreciate it, and am looking forward to working with you all again soon!â€
—Kathryn Kalabokes, Dream A Little Dream Events
