5 stars - Moon River Ensemble are Highly Recommended
booked Moon River Ensemble for their event

“I was looking for musicians who would bring a fun, sophisticated and festive atmosphere for our first 'Palace Pub Quiz' - a large-scale adult learning event at the Banqueting House, Whitehall. Moon River provided just this, creating a warm welcome with their opening and closing performances of well-known pieces and also delighting the audience with their jazz renditions of historical pieces of music I requested for our music round!  With over 250 audience members, the band entertained and impressed my audience and helped create the sense of occasion I was after. This event was the first introduction for many of the audience members to Historic Royal Palaces and Moon River helped me to create a great first impression, so thank you!”
