Thank you for your feedback regarding the Jazz Cruise on 20/7/24. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us.
We strive to offer diverse entertainment experiences across our different themed cruises. The Jazz Cruise is designed to provide a more contemplative, music-focused atmosphere, which differs from the Folk Cruise's interactive and informal style.
While we understand your disappointment, we must respectfully disagree with some of your assessments. The Maid of the Forth Stompers are a highly respected jazz ensemble known for their unique style and performance approach. Their positioning and interaction style work very well as our sold our cruises would suggest.
Regarding your specific points:
1. The band's position is chosen to optimize acoustics on the vessel.
2. Jazz performances often focus on the music rather than audience interaction.
3. The format of this cruise does not typically include audience requests.
4. Information about the route is not routinely given on our music cruises as it isn't the main focus, and our route can change depending on the weather and wind on the night.
5. Breaks are standard in professional music performances to maintain quality.
While we value your opinion, we stand behind the Maid of the Forth Stompers and their contribution to our cruise offerings. We will, however, take your feedback into consideration for future improvements.
