Carlo Pulvi Sax's Reviews

5 out of 5

We had a very last minute request for a Sax player and Carlo came through for us. We were able to communicate with him continuously and he arrived super early and played an amazing set working with the DJ that was playing at our event. I highly recommend Carlo as not only an amazing musician but also super professional

Carol was amazing and got everyone up and dancing at the party, I had so many people compliment him to me about how good he made the party. Would definitely recommend booking with him.

5 out of 5

Carlo was brilliant! He was flexible with his set list, which he provided in advance. We had some difficulties with the sound setup at the venue (not his fault) and he was still amazing and just rolled with it! Our friends and family loved his performance, we just need to think of some more excuses for a party so we can book him again! Thanks so much!

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

When I perform House music / Ibiza sax, I usually have a great feedback regarding my presence on stage: the energy I put into my performances always carry people on the dance floor.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Countless of private parties (Wedding, Birthdays, clubs), some of them in prestigious venues like "Century - London" and "Dirty Martini" (3 different Dirty Martinis in central London). Two flashmobs in "King's cross St. Pancras" station and in "Waterloo" station.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Leo Pellegrino, James Sax

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

A theatre in the centre of Milan, during a Pink Floyd tribute band performance.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

According to my personal schedule of the day and the given notice, it might vary from "no problem at all" to a full refund of the gig (if given enough notice). I am very reasonable and flexible but it is very important for me to be professional with other booking I might have on the same day.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, I usually play with Djs and I have a full playlist on my phone/Spotify that can be plugged during the breaks.

How much time do you need to set up?

If I am playing alone or with a Dj, less than 15 min; just the time to connect all the cables and be sure that everything is working as it should.

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Yes

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

According to the venue and the type of performance, I can provide a portable speaker, a playlist and a wireless microphone

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Yes
