Wedding receptions, functions and gala events usually require Instrumental music
String bands, harpists, pianist and solo musicians are often the first choice to provide instrumental music at weddings and functions.
Viva the duo has recently emerged on the scene as a delightful alternative to a string band as they can provide an extensive repertoire of instrumental music. They also perform popular iconic European and French music that they have developed as a result of the bands International experiences, they work at exclusive venues and special events

The Manly Daily 28/12/07 describes Viva as "the brilliant jazz trio"
Viva the duo is one of Sydney's most popular and professional instrumental duo combos, performing the same function as a string quartet for background music. The duo is unique in Sydney for creating a romantic and engaging ambiance, they are also able to provide quiet dance music, such as rumbas, bossa-nova's, tango's, jazz and quieter swing tunes. What could be more delightful than a French jazz accordion, bass, flute and guitar playing "La Vi En Rose" or "It Had To Be You" for background music and "Sway" or "In The Mood" for up-beat music
The bands are in high demand and maintain a full calendar of private and corporate work as a result of word of mouth referrals, repeat calls or through interstate agencies who list popular bands on their websites. The Sydney Viva bands have a great reputation and are hugely popular (with over 300 performances in 2008)
If Viva the duo is unavailable, we also network with other duo's including Yuki Kumagai duo, Janet Levy Good Intentions duo, Tony Burkys Jazztones duo, vocalist - pianist, Courtney Severini and Nigel Harris from the Moods band.
