Weddings and Events Pianist from Buckinghamshire; I can provide the heartwarming ambience and gentle entertainment to enhance the atmosphere of your event.

(183+ 5-star Reviews)

Magical and authentic live piano music for your special event. How about some Taylor Swift, Greatest Showman, or Disney music during the drinks & canapé reception. Perhaps some Ed Sheeran, ABBA or Sinatra for your dinner.  Or if that’s not your cup of tea, how about Interstellar, Starwars or Jurassic Park. Or maybe some of your guests might like some Foo Fighters, Queen and Stereophonics or some Dr Dre and Louis Capaldi?

Whatever their taste, I can come to your venue with one or two of my unique beautiful mobile pianos or play on the piano belonging to the venue if available. I am fully equipped for both indoor and outdoor events in all types of locations with no need for a power supply.

The Pianos

I have a range of mobile pianos which I designed and built and I also like to play on acoustic pianos when available.

My Black Upright Mobile Piano, ‘Niro'

Taking up a floor space of just 1.5m wide by 1m depth, including me! This is a Yamaha digital piano encased in my piano facade which I designed and built. Perfect for events. It’s fully wireless and battery-powered and I also use discrete top-quality HK Audio speakers with Sennheiser Wireless systems - perfect for blending in with quiet and noisy environments.

My Baby Grand Mobile Piano ‘Dutchgrand’

I modified my Dutchgrand, making it completely self-contained and wireless like my upright pianos. This elegant piano has a floor space (Including me) of 1.5m x 2m. It looks splendid and adds a touch of extra class.

Acoustic Pianos

If your venue has a piano, as long as its in full working order and tuned, I will be very happy to play it. I also have specialist microphones and amplification to make the piano sound remain audible if you expect a large or lively crowd!

FAQs

  • Absolutely yes, I provide my clients with my 540+ repertoire and help them along the way so they can request songs from my repertoire. Your can also request a theme - such as just christmas music or request your favourite artists.

  • I have over £10million public liability cover through my Musicians Union membership and I am exempt from PAT testing because all my equipment is battery-powered.

  • My prices for events start at £295. If you can give ma a few details about the location and rough timing etc I can send you a quote. Just click here

  • Yes, as soon as you know when the event is, you can secure the date by approving the quote I send you and paying a £75 deposit. The remaining balance isn’t due until the event.

  • My diary tends to be about 2/3rds full or more for 12 months ahead and about 1/3 full for 24 months so it’s best to book as soon as you can to ensure availability. Having said that, it’s OK to ask if you only have short notice as there may be gaps in my diary.

  • I live in Milton Keynes and tend to travel mostly up to an hour radius. However I do occasionally take on bookings a lot further afield. So it’s always worth asking me.

  • Yes absolutely. I have a completely battery-powered and wireless setup so I can position anywhere. I also have a smart white gazebo and stage flooring for situations where I need to protect my equipment from rain or intense sun.

  • Yes, I can move my piano from room to room if it is on a level surface. If not on a level surface or longer travel distances are needed I may need to set up a second piano.

  • I would be very happy to play the venue’s piano. If it is an acoustic piano it will need to be in full working order and in tune. I also have a special set of microphones and speakers for amplifying acoustic pianos which can be necessary for noisy environments where there are over about 100 guests.
