Music for Corporate Entertainment

For many years I have given music to bands that provide music for the entertainment of the companies. Customers have included Audi, The Evening Standard, Sainsburys, P.C. World, Safeways, Large Business Customers in Henley and Ascot, I.T.V. and H.M. Treasury. Because of this experience, I felt it would be relevant to include some tips to help customers choose the right type of music for their particular business entertainment.

 

Interestingly, most entertainment entertainment work for businesses tends to require music as an ingredient for a larger recipe. What I mean by this is that many Corporate Special Events offer a package of more services. Usually, an organization can organize evening entertainment to thank its workforce for a very successful year. They can offer music, food, comedy, a wizard close by, a casino and a cartoon. The client's business organization must decide what role music should play during day / night entertainment.

 

 

Is music specifically for entertainment or music to listen to in the background?

 

Do we need a music style at the beginning of the procedure and then a change of style in the days / nights of entertainment?

 

Do you expect business customers to network and discuss business or are they just there to feel good?

 

What general environment do you want to project with the event?

 

Will there be a change to the music when the entertainment event unfolds?

 

Different styles of bands lend themselves to different situations of corporate hospitality. Below is a series of typical corporate hospitality events with music suggestions for correct musical entertainment.
 

 

Corporate entertainment model 1.

 

Reception in the evening with dinner and talking.

 

In such a situation, you will usually need music from the start as part of the company's night meeting. A four-part swing or Latino group is ideal with a larger set for particularly large gatherings. A professional team can start the music at the appropriate decibel level so your guests can talk and enjoy the entertainment without disturbing conversations. Musicians tend to dress in lounge suits or tuxedos (or female equivalent) to reflect what their guests are wearing. The music depicts a sophisticated atmosphere which in turn reflects the general atmosphere of the night.
 

 

Business customers rarely want to dance, especially because the customers they interact with are business and not happy! In most cases, it is more important that the tape is flexible when needed during the night, that is, in the upper part of the night for reception, a smaller version of the band (such a pianist once for dinner), stops for speeches and then after the speakers to play until another entertainment is put on for business customers. In this situation, the band gives a clear idea of ​​how to expect the night to pass. What to do when using them when placing their instruments in the building and how to install them when breaks are needed, advising them whether it is convenient or not to feed them, and finally how to go. When you're done not to interrupt the rest of the entertainment.

 

 

 

Still business entertainment, still the hospitality of companies, but a completely different set of requirements for music. Ask yourself these questions: Is your workforce the kind of workforce that will dance at some point in the process? If they are, a professional band of flexibility is crucial. My experience is that people of all ages will come together to dance music from the sixties and seventies. No matter which background music you need at the start of the day or night, be it Latin, Swing, Rat Pack or Lounge if you want to provide entertainment that makes people dance, remember this. 60s and 70s. For some inexplicable reason, this is the music that makes people stand up.

 

When choosing your music, ask the band if they can cover this part of the company's entertainment requirements. Get samples of your music if necessary. There is nothing worse than a poorly equipped band fighting for the alien repertoire. No matter how good the band is, if they do not play the right repertoire, the right music style, then the entertainment of the companies will fall on deaf ears.
