"Vicky Evans of Divertimento
Entertainments has supplied our choral society with an orchestra for many
years now. I have found her unfailingly friendly, efficient and
helpful. We have always been supplied with exactly the orchestra we
have requested. She is able to handle all the potentially tricky
situations like fees and expenses negotiations as well as dealing with
requests for particular players. From our initial discussions about
musician numbers through to the day of the concert, correspondence, usually
by e mail, is dealt with rapidly. I will always use her services and
can unreservedly recommend her to other organisations requiring professional
musicians"

Polperro Proms
"Divertimento has provided a full
orchestra for annual promenade concerts for the past three years. Our
venue is probably one of the most difficult possible being on a stage over
water in the harbour of Polperro with no vehicular access, and over half a
mile from the nearest car park. Despite this, the orchestras have
always been on time, good humoured, superb and a pleasure to work with.
Vicky and her team seem to overcome all difficulties (which are many in our
case), and we cannot praise too highly their professionalism in arranging
everything necessary for three very memorable events, again, always in the
best spirit possible. We would not consider using anyone else and we
look forward to many more liaisons in the future."
Alan Elliot - Polperro Proms
