Alexey and his band were outstanding! We hired Viento band for our Brazilian themed Team Summit dinner. Our international folks were in attendance and extremely impressed, the music variety was on point. We even got up and danced! Alexey was very professional and accommodating with last minute changes. They arrived on time and impressed all attendees. I highly recommend Viento band!

I hired Viento for my wedding at the San Francisco Fairmont last July. I can honestly say that they exceeded my expectations and I have a highly educated, hard to please ear! These guys did great in so many levels! They are professional, Alexey was friendly and accommodating with my requests, offering help with music choices and being flexible with the ever changing wedding schedule. They were on time and well attired, which should be a given but more often than not, it isn’t. I want to emphasize on how beautifully they sounded, making the party lively but not noisy, so we could actually chat during cocktail hour and dinner. They also know how to tune their amplifier… often times you can find musicians that play well, but have a hard time tuning their amplifiers, ruining the experience… My guests made wonderful remarks about their performance. One thing that really makes a difference with other equally good performers is that they do not look like they are«at their job», they are actually having a good time, sincerely smiling and doing what is in their hands to enhance your celebration. Afterwards when I saw the video of the wedding and watched them genuinely happily applauding for the groom and I, when we made our entrance, it made a difference to me, because well, they didn’t know us, they didn’t have to, but they did anyway. On a side note, it took only an exchange of glances between Alexey and I(while he was playing and I was dancing) for him to know he had to extend the song and then finish it. That’s how cooperative and good team they are. Fellow brides, if you are concerned with finding a great group,(not one that suits tacky tastes and cheessy down your painstakingly planned affair) you need not look any further, rest assured that you have found a perfect match for a top notch event.

A great band, instrumentally or vocally! They were so much better than boring classical strings. We held a VIP dinner for 130 guests in San Francisco and they provided instrumental background to entertain our guests. They were dressed professionally, arrived on time, appreciated what tone the international audience would be accustomed to and helped our event go smoothly throughout the evening. I would definitely recommend them and hire them again given the opportunity.

I just wanted to update my review of Trio Buongiorno. After dealing with another band that gave me problems for a recent event, I thought back to my experience with Trio Buongiorno and how professional, reliable and generally awesome they are! I wish every band could be as easy, calm and experience and I wish I could hire them every time, honestly.

I highly recommend Trio Buongiorno for any special event. Alexey and band were very accommodating and professional, and of course the music was wonderful. We received many compliments regarding the band and would hire them again for another special event.

Trio Boungiorno played ambient music for our wedding celebration and they were wonderful! Guests repeatedly commented on how much they enjoyed the music and how perfectly it matched the festive vibe of the party. TBG was attentive to our tastes and played lovely, Brazilian standards, just as we requested. When we had a last-minute scheduling change, they were flexible, professional, and accommodating. I would highly recommend Trio Boungiorno for any special occasion.

They also showed up at our event, a 30th birthday party, with four band members and made our night. The music was great, the band was courteous and professional. Brazilian, flamenco, Cuban and Latin grooves that brought everyone to the dance floor. A real treat to have these guys around and I would hope to have another opportunity to book them

Alexey and Trio Buongiorno(actually a quartet the night of our wedding) played the music for the cocktail hour at our wedding 3÷20÷2010. They did a fabulous job, everyone raved about their music. They provided a great mood for the beginning of the party, upbeat and festive without being too overpowering. Would absolutely use them again or recommend them for an event.

I’ve been meaning to write this sooner, verses later. here we go. While attending a close friends wedding in San Francisco on March 21st. I was surprised to be extremely impressed listening to Trio Buongiorno during an intimate cocktail lounge experience prior to the wedding kicking off. My advise to anyone who wishes to listen to a exceptional exotic rhythms of this and sultry vocal treatments of this group of super talented musicians. I highly recommend making an effort to hear these guys play… exceptional.

Trio Buongiorno is fantastic. We were very lucky to have them play at our wedding. They are wonderful musicians with impressive range, and were a pleasure to deal with. Professional, prompt, flexible, and responsive in their business communications with us, they impressed us from the beginning. The bossa nova set they played during our cocktail hour set a relaxed and festive tone for our event. The band then seamlessly then moved their instruments and equipment to a different location onsite and played a sophisticated but grooving dinner jazz set during our meal. Our guests loved the music and so did we. We can’t wait to hear them play again and could not recommend them more highly. Their website is also helpful if you want to check out their sound.
