Ismael was awesome! He played for my daughter's
wedding and he was on time and very professional. We requested a song that he hadn't played before. He not only learned the song for us, he played it beautifully! Not only did we enjoy his skillful and great sounding music, our guests enjoyed it as well. I would recommend him for your event.

Ismael was a joy to work with, communication was 10/10, and his professionalism was spot on. Plus, his talent was unmatched, set the tone for our event, and the attendees loved it. Has willing to learn specific songs to fit the theme of the event, and we would recommend him to anyone in the area. We hope to be back in the area to work together again!

Mr Ramirez played his sax in the court yard while guest were arriving to my wedding on Dec 6th 2024. He was given full range and creativity with song selections and was a complete hit with my guest and venue. He seamlessly transitioned from different genre of songs during his performance. Was very easy to communicate and was a pleasure to have him with us on our special night. He even did a duet while I was djing as a surprise to my wife . Class act and you will not be dissatisfied when it comes to Mr Ramirez

Pleasure assisting at your event!
"We were absolutely thrilled to have Ismael Ramirez perform at our wedding in Sedona, AZ! From the moment we reached out to him, he was professional, responsive, and accommodating. He even learned a special song for our occasion, which meant the world to us.
Ismael's talent on the saxophone is truly exceptional. His music added a level of sophistication and romance to our ceremony and reception that we could have only dreamed of. Our guests were blown away by the quality of his sound and his ability to convey emotion through his playing.
Traveling to Sedona was no easy feat, but Ismael made it happen without a hitch. His dedication to his craft and his commitment to making our day special was evident in every note he played.
We cannot recommend Ismael highly enough. If you're looking for a talented musician who will go above and beyond to make your event unforgettable, look no further. Thank you, Ismael, for helping to make our wedding day truly unforgettable!"
Five stars, hands down!

Thank you for your review Frely! It was a pleasure assisting at your event!
We had the upmost pleasure to have Ismael play for my birthday celebration. He had everyone in awe of how beautifully he played his saxophone. He played new & older songs that had everyone hooked intrigued for more. We also had him DJ. He had all the guest dancing. If you're thinking of hiring Ismael, doooo it! You will not regret it. On top of all the talent, he is super professional, respectful, kind and down to earth.
I can't wait till my next event... we will definitely hire again.
