Photo of Iryna Iryna "We listened to Iryna playing at The Woodward in Geneva, and she was absolutely wonderful. Her music was so elegant and emotional, and it created the perfect atmosphere for the evening. You could really feel her passion for the music. It was a pleasure to listen to her and definitely one of the highlights of our stay." Based in Zug, Canton of Zug 1st October 2026 Anonyme - The Woodward Photo of Schönes Piano Schönes Piano "It was magical. Jürg's accompaniment was simply perfect. We specified some music requests and Jürg timed them perfectly and played them – it made our forest wedding magical. During the aperitif, he played further songs that entertained our guests – not intrusive, not too little – it was absolutely perfect. The entire wedding party raved about it 🙏🏻 Many thanks to Jürg for this wonderful performance" Translated from German Based in Bern, Canton of Bern 19th September 2026 Moelgg - Private Hochzeit Photo of St. Moritz Pianist Lounge St. Moritz Pianist Lounge "We booked St. Moritz Pianist Lounge for a wedding reception in Italy, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of the entire day. The music added a level of elegance and sophistication that truly elevated the atmosphere. From the moment guests arrived, the piano created a warm and welcoming ambiance. Throughout the reception, the performance adapted naturally to each phase of the event, always maintaining the perfect balance between presence and discretion. What we appreciated most was the musical sensitivity and the ability to read the room. Nothing felt forced or scripted—it all flowed effortlessly, contributing to a relaxed yet refined environment. Many of our guests commented on how beautiful the music was and how it made the event feel more intimate and special. It’s the kind of detail that people remember long after the event is over. An excellent choice for anyone looking to create a truly elegant and memorable experience." Based in St. Moritz, Grisons 28th April 2026 Daniele Photo of Pianist Zürich Pianist Zürich "For our wedding in St. Gallen, we hired this pianist and are very grateful for his performance. He was professional, friendly, and very reliable. The music during the ceremony was beautiful and emotional, perfectly attuned to the moment. At the reception, he continued the musical accompaniment with a diverse repertoire that delighted all our guests. Many praised his performance as a highlight of the celebration. His sensitivity, technique, and elegance make him a pianist we recommend without reservation." Translated from German Based in Zürich, Canton of Zurich 3rd April 2026 Sandra Keller Photo of Organista e pianista Bellinzona Organista e pianista Bellinzona "I had the pleasure of hiring this pianist for a private event in Bellinzona, and the experience was outstanding in every respect. From the first interaction, it was clear that this is a highly skilled professional who takes great pride in their work. The preparation phase was smooth and well-organized. All details were discussed in advance, and there was a strong sense of reliability and commitment. This made the planning process much easier and stress-free. On the day of the event, the piano performance was simply superb. The music created an elegant and relaxed atmosphere that perfectly matched the tone of the evening. The repertoire was diverse and thoughtfully chosen, and the execution was flawless. What impressed me most was the ability to adapt to the flow of the event. The music always felt appropriate, whether guests were arriving, dining, or simply enjoying the moment. It added a level of sophistication that would have been impossible to achieve otherwise. Many guests commented on how much they enjoyed the live music, and I personally felt that it elevated the entire event. I would highly recommend this service to anyone looking for a professional pianist or organist in Canton Ticino." Based in Bellinzona, Canton Ticino 23rd March 2026 Daniel W.
