Jill Janoff is an accomplished and versatile flutist. Her musicianship comes out consistently in performances that are imbued with feeling and beauty. She is sensitive and intuitive about the music she selects and her approach to that music.
-Mitchell Covington, Director of Music Ministries, First Presbyterian Church, Berkeley

Jill, you are one super-woman. Thank you for putting together this magnificent ensemble of voices and instruments. Thank you for sharing your God-given talents with the people of St. Rita's once again.
May Jesus bless you in abundance...Gratefully, In His Heart,

-Reverend Robert Cipriano, Pastor, St. Rita Parish, Fairfax, CA

I had the pleasure of working with Jill Janoff between 1989 and 1991 in Berkeley, CA. I conducted a wide variety of projects in many different styles in which Jill was involved. In each case, I found her playing to be very musical. She also had a very pleasant and professional demeanor which made working with her a most positive experience. I recommend her as a fine flutist and a fine person with whom to work.

-Dr. David Dickau, Director of Choral Activities, Minnesota State University, Mankato
I have been a fan of Jill Janoff ever since I first heard her play flute at First Presbyterian Church, Berkeley, CA six years ago. This church is widely known for attracting the best of musicians, and I can assure you that Sunday worship is always very special when Jill presents her music.

-Mike Mirabella, Papa Mike's Music
I cannot thank you enough for the beautiful music you provided at my sister's memorial service. Many people commented how soothing and prayerful it was. For me, personally, it made the liturgy all the more consoling. It was of tremendous help to my parents as well.

-Reverend Raymond Sacca, Pastor, St. Michael's Catholic Church, Livermore
Thank you for your beautiful flute and piano music...Your lovely gift helped to set the atmosphere for a service of praise to our Lord with thanksgiving for my husband's life.

-Louise Spanne, El Cerrito
We had BellaFlauta play a medley of jazz classics for the prelude to our wedding as well as accompany a small children's choir during the processional. We asked them to play because we have heard them perform in many different contexts over the years - at weddings, funerals, concerts, church services, as dinner music, as the opening act for conferences, etc-- and have always thought they were just wonderful. Jill is an extraordinary musician--extremely versatile and with a true heart and soul for whatever type of music she puts her hand to.

-Bo & Phil Cotty, Oakland
I speak as a "people person" not a musician. Jill Janoff plays from the heart and her playing reaches and soothes the heart. I love to have her play for our conferences.

-Sandi Hedlund, Director, Christian Lay Counseling Service, First Presbyterian Church, Berkeley
From the moment we began to plan the music for our daughter's wedding, we had a sense of excitement and relief: Jill Janoff was in charge, was listening to us, and had a multitude of beautiful options to offer. Her knowledge of repertoire was immense - only to be matched by her beautiful playing. The wedding chapel we had chosen had no musical instruments. Jill's contribution during the ceremony and afterwards during the garden reception, brought a dimension of beauty and dignity to this special day. Our guests repeatedly remarked about the beauty of the music. We remain most grateful.

-Bill and Diane Hautt, Alameda
BellaFlauta has a beautiful sound that created the perfect mood for our wedding. I wanted the music for our wedding to be special and BellaFlauta made that dream come true. Jill is a professional and pays special attention to details requested by the Bride and Groom. She is a joy to work with.

-Kathy and Jerry Ruck, Martinez
Thank you so much for giving me the different resources for wedding music. I found the perfect CD for my wedding...I wouldn't have found it, if it wasn't for you. Thank you so much for your time and kindness.
