    Starting at the cocktail hour, Bill and two other members of his band played upbeat, classic jazz standards to keep the mood light.

    Metzger Music Studio - Martin Metzger, Owner and Instructor.

    Metzger Music Studio

    We are truly loving working with Martin Metzger. Our 12-year old son looks forward to his lessons…read moreand is excited to play the music he and Martin choose together. Martin strongly believes in allowing kids to follow their interests, and has the talent, interest, and patience to help them do so in a wide range of genres. Martin is knowledgeable and dedicated both as a musician and as an educator. We travel a bit of a distance for lessons and are convinced it's well worth our time. We recommend him highly to anyone at any age looking for a great guitar instructor.

    Choosing the Metzger Music Studio has truly been one of the best decisions of my and my wife's…read morelives! Our daughter goes to Martin for guitar lessons and I fear I may not be able to convey here just how amazing he is and what his instruction has meant for our daughter as a musician! I would recommend Martin and his crew any day! We wanted to get our girl started on guitar very early, only because she was exhibiting an affinity toward music and guitar that got us thinking it wouldn't hurt to try her at guitar, so we contacted Martin. He readily welcomed the notion of trialing and the rest is history. Besides being a phenomenal guitarist, his being an amazing person and having a Masters in Education have both manifested in the amazing way in which Martin teaches our girl to play the guitar. He works with her at her own pace, taking cues from how she learns in order to tailor his instructions to suit her learning, all the while making the lessons equal parts guitar and fun, entertaining our girl's every whim to be jovial and enjoy learning the guitar. He shows her the utmost respect and teaches her in a way that has inspired her to look up to flamenco legends. For her age, that level of aspiration itself is awe-inspiring and the credit goes to Martin. He doubles down on skills that our girl is good at while helping her elevate those she needs more work on, from strumming to chords to rhythms to percussion to improvising. We love his holistic approach of teaching the pupil to actually feel music and rhythm rather than just to learn to play the guitar. His methods have resulted in wonders! We have been fortunate to witness moments of our girl's performance that have impressed even Martin. That is the level of quality of instruction one can expect from Martin. He stresses on practicing, practicing and practicing some more. He also encourages playing at recitals that he arranges for his students, which is a great way for the student to be inspired and be audience-ready. He has also started our girl on sight reading, which is helping her to learn to play the guitar while reading music. I would characterize Martin's overall approach as informed (no unnecessary attachments to old or new methods just for the sake of it), inspiring, feedback-loop-based, very disciplined and simply amazing! And his guitar skills? Incredible! Let me put it this way, we have considered migrating to a warmer climate and one of the top considerations that have kept us in Chicago is that we don't want to lose Martin as our friend and our daughter's guitar teacher. And he's been a great friend to our daughter too. There are great guitar teachers everywhere, but there's only one Martin. Our girl's weekly guitar lesson is one of the highlights of her week that she looks forward to. It is a joy to see her learn to play the guitar and have the time of her life while at it! As for the rest of his studio, Martin has 16 teachers on every instrument (and even voice) who travel to people's homes for lessons, which is convenient for many families. The teachers are well-educated, passionate about their instruments and art, and they are wonderful with children. As I alluded to earlier, the studio also puts on three recitals free of charge every year! I only give online reviews when I feel the recipient absolutely deserves it and reviewing Martin and his studio was a no-brainer! I wholeheartedly recommend the Metzger Music Studio for any potential student interested in developing a lifetime love for learning music!

    Can I just say that this part of my wedding was not only the easiest to plan, but was the most…read moreeffective in creating the atmosphere we desired! Patti Lupo and the Crew are fabulous (...and I know! I played in a wedding band!). They have a wonderful list of tunes and are open to 1 or 2 additions. They played everything from classical piano music (ceremony), jazz combo (dinner), and everything beyond for the reception: classical rock, motown, and funk to the pop hits of the last 5 years. Excellent! I am not joking when I say I barely remember the evening passing! Not because I was drinking (because I wasn't), but because I was literally on the dance floor the entire time. We have a crew that loves to dance, and the floor was NEVER empty. I have recommended Patti Lupo to 4 other friends and 2 have signed contracts that I know of so far. They played my wedding, my sister's, my cousin's, my best friends, and her sisters and are about to play 2 more of my close friends. They never bore and never tire and are SO REASONABLE! I am serious when I say you do not need to look any further! From this musician, I give 5 GIANT *'s.

    Patti Lupo Music is top notch! Patti and her band played at our wedding this past weekend and at…read morethe end of the night our guests did not want to leave! We had guests tell us that they NEVER dance at weddings and that they were on the dance floor all night for the first time since their own wedding many years ago! We were on a tight schedule because our wedding reception was relatively short. When we met with Patti we focused a great deal on the schedule and the things we wanted to make sure we covered throughout the night. Patti did not miss a thing! The evening flowed perfectly and Patti and her band were great at reading the crowd on the dance floor. Our guests did not stop dancing the entire night! Patti Lupo Music is also very reasonably priced compared to the other full size bands in Chicago. We spent a long time looking for a band that was what we wanted for the price that we could afford and Patti's band was it! If you want an incredible band for your wedding without having to break the bank... Patti Lupo Music is your band!

    I wish we could give more than five stars. Rendezvous was the best band we have ever heard at a…read morewedding, and our guests still cannot stop talking about their amazing performance. Ask for an "East Coast" style wedding. They started playing right when the guests began to enter, and had everyone on the dance floor the entire time. The only complaints we heard from guests was that their feet hurt from dancing so much. We worked with Toni and Sarah leading up to the event, and they were so incredibly helpful. They listened to what we wanted in terms of song choices, energy level, and overall atmosphere, and were so flexible in learning our first dance song. The songs they played during meals were absolutely beautiful, and all band members, including the four singers, were so talented. Each signer had their own unique style, and they all worked so well together. I cannot recommend this group enough. We had the most amazing wedding, and a very large part of the experience for us and for our guests was this amazing and engaging band. I wish we could hear them again.

    DJ Aumir was truly unbelievable. From the very beginning, he was both an incredible collaborator…read moreand an endless source of creative inspiration. We gave him a few playlists to share our overall vibe, and he went above and beyond--asking for a detailed breakdown of the energy we wanted at each moment and location throughout our multi-event celebration. Whether it was the ceremony, the rooftop cocktail hour at our pre-wedding sangeet, the themed speakeasy cocktail hour, or the full-on sangeet dance party, he curated each set with intention and total mastery. His mixes were unlike anything we've ever heard. He seamlessly blended Indian, Western, reggaeton, Afrobeats, Bollywood, and more, creating unique mashups that fit the mood and the venue perfectly. The sangeet reception mashup he crafted was out of this world. I had at least ten guests come up to me asking if he would make a mix just so they could relive the night and use it for their own weddings. Beyond his talent, Aumir's energy, professionalism, detail-oriented-ness, and creativity made him a dream to work with. His timing was flawless, his lighting and setup brought every space to life, and he executed every moment with passion and precision. He is a rare gem, and it would honestly be a mistake not to hire him. Highly, highly recommended!

He and his team showed up to 3 events over 2 days for our Wedding and was able to find a great entertainment mix with our diverse crowd playing music ranging from bollywood, american, EDM, and more. Everything was so smooth and flawless, nothing was off from the plan. We used DJ, emcee, lighting, sparkler, CO2 guns, and more! I would highly recommend using Escape entertainment for your full set of entertainment needs.
