Ivory&Gold® Reviews

 

You are great people with great personalities, fantastic artists, highly skilled and staying so modest, and you build bridges in the world to bring peace to every place you go. It's needed so badly in this world. Thanks for your contributions to a peaceful and better world through music, with your motivated and intercultural contributions.

"Anne and Jeff....I wanted to tell you how phenomenal you were when you played for Tri-State

with the Midiris on November 1.

 In my opinion and that of other attendees, the

concert was one of the best if not the best Tri-State has offered in its 20 year history. "

Bill Wallace

“…enjoy the warmth and talent of this unique duo – you won’t regret it”

Stuart Dryden, UK

“They can produce sophisticated sounds, ragtime tunes

 like you’ve never heard before and have a good time doing it.”

Mammoth Lakes Jazz Jubilee, Mammoth Lakes, CA

“This group brings much variety to their performances,

due in part to their rapport and diverse backgrounds….

this talented group has made their unique arrangements popular across the country.”

“Anne, the way you caress a melody is pure joy!”

Bob Wilber, international jazz legend, January 18, 2009

“I wanted to use my voice to tell you how wonderful these 3 CDs are. 

 I love them all and all of the work on them.

On Wings of Song is one of the most perfectly put-together things I have ever heard.

You have got to find a way to market that wisely.

Not only is it superb music but a very-needed departure in repertory.

I love all three in every way and congratulate you and Danny on a great piece of work.

Max Morath, November 10, 2008


“Ivory and Gold—a perfect balance of musical selections,

 impeccable taste and masterful performances.”

Cam Miller, The American Rag, October 2008

“Ivory and Gold more than fill a hall with their ragtime, jazz,

Tin Pan Alley and Broadway tunes.

Mystic, CT is their home base, but the country is their stage.”

Frank Grace, The American Rag, October 2008

Dear Anne and Jeffrey,
 
It is so hard to believe that your performance at the Keeney Memorial Cultural Center happened almost two months ago.  Your presence and performance is not only in all our memories, but in conversation…What a hit!
 
Attendees at Thursday’s night’s cabaret came to listen to two talented musicians; they left fulfilled beyond their expectations.  We knew that these two artists were going to entertain us with the music we had experienced one way or another in our lifetime, but we were not prepared for the performance that happened that evening.  Magic came out of the flute and piano.  The audience did not move, giving focus to the sounds and rhythm coming from these artists and instruments performing as one.  Although most of the songs were familiar, there was a new feel, a new tone, and the interplay between Anne and Jeffrey sparked the music even more.  We have to have Ivory and Gold back not just because they are extremely talented, but because their talents are so rare.
 
Thank you for giving us so much enjoyment.  We look forward to having you both here on February 11, 2010.
 
Enjoy the summer!
 
Cheers,
 
Maggie
