Ignatius, the sax savant, was a true professional and I'm so glad I hired him for my 50th Birthday. He played a wonderful and entertaining 1hr set for my cocktail hour and we really enjoyed it. Working with Ignatius prior to the party was great! He was responsive, punctual, and very professional during the entire process. Will definitely hire him again for future events!

I decided to hire Ignatius to play the saxophone during me and my husband’s wedding ceremony after our pastor reminded us that we needed music. Lol He pulled together a beautiful arrangement in a very short notice. He was punctual, professional and hit all the important moments. I would absolutely hire again. Thanks so much!
