"This band is off the charts! They can play everything your heart desires.
Live American and Greek music for our Big Fat Greek wedding! Our dance floor was constantly full, the guests were itching to get on the dance floor all night long!
Thanks Chris!"

Zoe, Chicago, IL

"The Chris Sarlas Orchestra's performance of Greek and American music at our wedding reception was absolutely amazing! We actually booked them before our reception location because it was that important for us to have them perform at our wedding (we have been to other weddings where they were the Orchestra) - We still (months later) get complements of how great they were!"

Rachel, Chicago, IL

"If music is on the top of your list and you want someone to get the party started - then the Chris Sarlas Orchestra (CSO) is the band for you! We were looking for a live Greek & American band and CSO delivered in every way.
I didn't think there would be a band that would tailor their music to the mood of everyone, and with over 300 guests - CSO hit every song from every genre in both Greek & American. My guests (big music critics!) gave me so many compliments and thought they were at a concert! "

Kathryn, Lincolnwood, IL
