Below is a selection of video testimonials from recent workshops. Underneath you will find written testimonials which are compiled through feedback forms at the conclusion of each workshop. Some have company names and titles with permission. For others we only have first names due to privacy.
We understand that there can be a tendency for some service providers to embellish written testimonials so we are more than happy to provide the original hard-copy feedback or put you in touch with the person who gave the feedback.
We are also very happy to provide you with references if you would like to contact organisations who have engaged Ambient Orchestras.
