Natalie Berger - Event Planner - Phipps Conservatory "Matt, FANTASTIC JOB! Your band was fabulous and you pulled off the surprise for Jeff perfectly! I don't know how you knew about "Raindrops..." but that was a special treat. Thank you so much for making our son's wedding extra special and so memorable.

I already heard from Selkovits and they were very pleased. Looking forward to seeing the video with the medley and Hoorah!" Deb Waterkotte The Planner "I wanted to thank you for the amazing job you did at our wedding reception. Every guest must have told me how incredible you were! We all just let loose and had a great time dancing. (I think everyone danced and it was great.) The band sounded perfect! Thanks for all of your hard work. You helped make my wedding day a perfect, memorable day!" Cassie Noll Bride - The Club at Nevillewood "Daniel and I just wanted to let you know how much we appreciated your help in making our wedding spectacular! Frankly, I had a great deal of misgivings about the music world in Pittsburgh and I even considered bringing in a band from the D.C. area. What a waste of money that would have been and completely unnecessary. Our caterer-wedding consultant claims you were one of the most professional bands she's ever met. Our friends keep talking about what a fantastic band we found for our wedding. And, most importantly, Daniel and I had an unbelievably great time. If anyone asked, I would recommend Modern Times in a heartbeat. Good luck with your promising future." Edith Raphael Brotman Bride - Rodef Shalom "We were delighted with your music. You are TRUE musicians who can play all kinds of music. We loved the female vocalist (Leah Boni) - what a beautiful voice she has! We also loved the sax, guitarists and keyboard. You are living proof that you don't need DJ's at weddings. Nothing will ever beat the real thing!" Roberta Ravasio Mother-of-the-Bride - Phipps Conservatory "Modern Times was absolutely excellent in every way from the ceremony through the reception. Our guests had a great time and danced until the band stopped. We have had wonderful compliments on all the music. I would recommend Modern Times highly to anyone!" Susan Deakin-Kabazie Bride - Westin William Penn Hotel "I always breath a sigh of relief when I see that Modern Times is playing here. Matt is an excellent Master of Ceremonies and I have never seen him unable to handle any of the last minute changes that often arise. Modern Times is a first class group from start to finish!" John Phillips Dining Room Captain - Le Mont Restaurant "Modern Times is a very talented ,professional and versatile group. They have been favorites here at the James Street Tavern for quite some time. Their CD is one of the best I have ever heard from the city and I never hesitate to recommend to my best customers when good music is called for." Craig Poole Owner - James Street Tavern "Someone who appreciates great musicianship definitely will not be disappointed with Matt Ferrante & Modern Times. Players just don't get any better." John Parker Leader - John Parker Band "Matt Ferrante is an impressive saxophonist with free flowing lines that signal a fertile imagination: a professional improviser. A particularly inventive saxophonist yet cool and calm. Strong, exciting and a haunting soloist." Tony Mowod Jazz Host WDUQ FM Founder of Pittsburgh Jazz Society "Matt Ferrante brings to the table a playfulness and creative spontaneity which continues to knock me out..." H. B.
