Toast of the Town Jazz Ensemble Testimonials
“Rob Fletcher played at our wedding and made the night a wonderful success. Rob’s ability to transition so easily from upbeat and fun to slow and soulful created exactly the type of atmosphere we were looking for. From the moment the reception began people were feeling good, and Rob had the crowd dancing until the very end – including the grandparents and the kids. Best of all, Rob handled the details so smoothly and professionally that we could simply focus on being with our friends and family. I highly recommend Rob and his music for any wedding or party.”
-Jerry Riverstone
“Adding live jazz music to our reception was a terrific addition to our wedding celebration. Rob Fletcher contributed a nice touch of class to our festivities and filled out the evening’s dinner with a thoughtful mix of great old standards.”
-Chris White & Laurie Siegel
“The music that you played was an underpinning that helped to lay the foundation for the beauty and enchantment we felt on our wedding day.”
– Carol James
“Rob Fletcher’s bossa novas transport me from Monday at the office under florescent lights to a candlelit Sunday evening on the porch with a glass of wine. Rob’s music ranges from smoky evening sounds and swinging Sinatra, to down and dirty pop and blues. He’s an entertainer whose wide smile and deep soul seep through every bit of his music.”
- Emily Bundschuh, Assistant Director, Harvard Alumni Association
“Rob Fletcher is an accomplished musician who has shared his impressive talents with our family and adult groups during evening activities. His music and style are versatile and entertaining. Rob’s engaging personality can get an entire room full of people to join in singing – even if they don’t usually do so.
The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp serves critically/chronically ill children and their families. During the summer, we welcome over 1000 children who are coping with cancer, sickle cell, hemophilia, HIV, and other blood disorders. In the off-season, we provide respite weekends for our camper families, parents, and health care professionals. In addition, we provide a weekend for young adult cancer survivors, as well as an alumni camper reunion weekend and bereavement weekends.
It has been a great pleasure to work with Rob. His warm, caring, easy-going personality is a tremendous asset in our programs which bring together such diverse groups of people. His skills and talents enhance every retreat with which he has assisted. We call him our “Renaissance Man”!
Rob Fletcher has been an integral part of our off-season programs since the spring of 1999. He is a talented, caring, enthusiastic, fun-loving person who has enriched our programs in a number of ways.”
-Karen Allen, Director of Community and Family Research, The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp
“On behalf of the staff and management of the MIT Endicott House, I am writing to thank you for helping make our client Holiday Party such a resounding success.
The ambience of the restaurant blended very well with the Frank Sinatra theme. We felt it was a nice compliment to the overall festivities of the evening.
In addition, I must compliment you on the ease with which you mingled with our guests. It has been a pleasure working with you, and I wish you much success.”
-Rose Consigli, MIT Endicott House Conference Center
