Testimonials ...

I really can't thank you enough for Infusion's participation
in the event. Everybody was completely awestruck by
their talent! Absolutely amazing. I will definitely
be passing on your details to anyone looking for a great
jazz band and I hope, very much, that Infusion will
be able to participate in any future music events for
Encompass.

A huge thanks to the boys for a truly fabulous
evening. They were amazing and received SO many compliments.
I could have cancelled the party and listened to them
all night! We would be delighted to have them again the
next time we have an excuse! They really did make the
evening very special.

Miles of joy at night to remember
RECENTLY the St Edmund’s Music Group, Katherine
Road, Forest Gate, promoted a 50th anniversary tribute
to A Kind of Blue, the landmark album by Miles Davis,
and still the biggest-selling album of all time. Led by
Marius Rudnick (sax and flute), the evening was a triumph.
Paul Higgs took the role of Miles on trumpet and the line
up was completed by Arthur Collins (sax/clarinet), Chris
Neill (piano) and Sid Thompson (drums). The remarkable
lad on piano was just fifteen and what talent! Paul Higgs
I saw many years ago in the National Youth Jazz Orchestra,
which emphasises how invaluable that organisation is.
This was an outstanding evening. I can’t praise too
highly how each rose to the occasion and long may St Edmund’s
Music Group continue. – ROBERT RUSH, chairman,
Monega Residents’ Association.

Many, many thanks once again for providing/organising
the excellent entertainment yesterday at the Pier Walk.
Everyone enjoyed the music and the great atmosphere. Hope
the lads weren't too tired after the day's performance.
I managed to thank most of the crew personally, but Annie
had left before I had a chance to thank her, so perhaps
you would do so on my behalf - she has a great voice eh!
Infusion are still going strong with the excellent lead
from Chris, who goes from strength to strength - radio
and TV next? Every good wish and thanks again from me
and the Rotary Club.
Terry Tidman, The Rotary Club of Leigh-on-Sea |
Good to meet you and the band - I thought
Infusion were great and still can't believe that your
son Chris is only 15 - you must be so proud.

I just wanted to get in touch to say thank
you so much for coming to our wedding and giving such
a wonderful performance, it was everything we wanted it
to be, lovely music, well played, discreet enough not
to overwhelm conversations and yet enough to be heard
and appreciated. I'd like to pass on many compliments
regarding your playing, you are clearly a very talented
young man with a musical future ahead if you wish for
it! Although I don't want to focus on it, many guests
commented on your youth and were all the more impressed
at your ability and the wide range of music you play.
I would certainly not hesitate to recommend you to others
and wish you the very best of luck in your future.

Thank you to Chris and Mike, both nights
were fantastic, and despite me running around and leaving
you to your own devices, I was able to leave you to get
set up with no problems, so thank you for that.

I can understand how Chris can have managed
to develop a technique that good at fifteen. What I don't
understand is how he has managed to get forty years of
experience!
