That sounds like a great idea! A jazz trio with saxophone, bass and guitar provides a wonderful atmosphere for dinner events. They could play a variety of well-known jazz hits that the audience is sure to enjoy.
Here are some classic jazz standards that you could include in your repertoire:
“Summertime” by George Gershwin
“Autumn Leaves” by Joseph Kosma
“All of Me” by Gerald Marks and Seymour Simons
“Fly Me to the Moon” by Bart Howard
“Take the A Train” by Billy Strayhorn
“My Funny Valentine” by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart
“So What” by Miles Davis
“Blue Bossa” by Kenny Dorham
“Girl from Ipanema” by Antonio Carlos Jobim
“Cantaloupe Island” by Herbie Hancock
These songs offer a good mix of styles and moods that are well suited to a dinner event. You could also include some modern jazz interpretations of pop songs or well-known standards in your repertoire to surprise and entertain the audience.
