- Amazing night. I would highly recommend doing the full experience but the performance itself was amazing. Top quality performers in a really nice theatre. Thanks for an enjoyable night.
- It was a wonderful experience! Incredibly talented musicians and we will certainly attend another event like this in the very near future.
- The musicians were amazing and the setting beautiful!
- Another brilliant night. Thanks 😃
- Excellent experience. My daughters and I planned this for husbands birthday treat. We were excited and overwhelmed by every moment. @Eclectivestrings played the most innovative sets of famous SOUL tunes. And the hosting of the evening by these young musicians was fabulous, we loved hearing about the story of each song! It’s one experience in Melbourne to try again with a different theme next time. Thank you for this unforgettable night!
