Photo of Pianist Portofino Pianist Portofino "Hiring this pianist for our outdoor wedding by the Portofino harbor was the best decision we made. The music filled the space perfectly, and the performance added so much elegance and emotion to our special day." 14th January 2026 Sam - Wedding Photo of Matthew Zelenin Music Matthew Zelenin Music "Matt played piano during our wedding cocktail hour, and he was absolutely amazing. His music created such a beautiful and elegant atmosphere while our guests mingled, and it truly elevated that part of the evening. So many people came up to us to say how much they loved the music. Matt was professional, punctual, and very easy to work with throughout the process. We’re so grateful he was part of our wedding day and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented pianist for their event!" 21st March 2026 Bridget Merchant - Wedding Cocktail Hour Photo of Organista e pianista Bellinzona Organista e pianista Bellinzona "We chose this organist and pianist service for our wedding ceremony in Bellinzona, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions we made. From the very first contact, the level of professionalism and attention to detail was evident. Every question we had was answered with care, and we were guided through the selection of music in a way that made the whole process smooth and enjoyable. The organ performance during the ceremony was simply outstanding. Each piece was executed with precision and emotion, creating a deeply moving atmosphere that touched not only us but all of our guests. Many people came up to us afterward to compliment the music, saying it added a magical and unforgettable dimension to the ceremony. For the reception, we opted for the piano service, and it was equally impressive. The music was elegant and perfectly balanced, enhancing the ambiance without ever overpowering conversations. The repertoire was varied and tasteful, adapting beautifully to the mood of the evening. Overall, the experience exceeded our expectations in every way. We highly recommend this service to anyone looking for high-quality live music in Bellinzona and throughout Canton Ticino." 23rd March 2026 Michael Thompson Photo of Pianist Malaga - Marbella Pianist Malaga - Marbella "Thomas has been a great pianist and a friendly guy. He brought his own piano and was super flexible regarding music and our wishes. Everything went perfect." 10th June 2026 Juan Rodri - Private Event Photo of Your Pianist for Wedding, Concert & Event Your Pianist for Wedding, Concert & Event "Lisa Maria Schachtschneider hat unseren besonderen Tag musikalisch wundervoll begleitet. Sie war äusserst professionell, zuverlässig und hat mit ihrem Klavierspiel eine ganz besondere Atmosphäre geschaffen. Ihre Musik hat unsere Feier perfekt untermalt und viele schöne Momente noch unvergesslicher gemacht. Wir können sie von Herzen weiterempfehlen und bedanken uns für ihre grossartige Begleitung!" 6th July 2026 Annalisa Lüthi - Wedding Ceremony plus Apéro Photo of San Francisco Bay Area Musician Harp Piano San Francisco Bay Area Musician Harp Piano "⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mary Mei Brought Our Wedding Vision to Life! If you want a performance that will leave your guests in tears of absolute joy, you must book Mary Mei. For our recent wedding, Mary did not just provide background music—she curated a breathtaking, emotional journey that completely defined the magic of our day. Her ability on the harp, the piano, and the traditional Chinese Guzheng brought an elite level of sophistication and deeply moving artistry that we didn't even know was possible. The absolute highlight of the entire day was our wedding ceremony processional. As the doors opened and I began walking down the aisle, Mary struck the first chords on her gorgeous harp. The acoustics of the room filled with a sound so rich, angelic, and emotionally resonant that it instantly set a tone of pure romance and awe. It felt like stepping directly into a movie scene. Her pacing was flawless, seamlessly matching the energy of the room and creating a deeply personal, sacred moment that none of us will ever forget." 22nd September 2026 Jenny - Wedding

Frequently asked questions

Pricing for classical pianists ranges from $140 to $900+, with an average of $480. Rates depend on the pianist's experience, the length of the performance and whether a specific repertoire is required. Some pianists may also factor in whether a suitable instrument is available at the venue or whether they need to bring a digital piano.

The classical pianists on Gig Heaven perform classical piano repertoire ranging from baroque and romantic works to twentieth-century pieces, alongside film scores and classical arrangements of well-known songs. Many pianists can shape the programme to suit different moments, from a formal recital feel to gentle background music during a reception.

Some classical pianists bring their own digital piano or keyboard, while others prefer to use an acoustic piano if one is available at the venue. If the venue does not have a piano, a digital instrument can produce an excellent sound and is easily transported. For the best experience, discuss instrument arrangements with the pianist when making an enquiry.

Events that commonly feature classical pianists include wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate events, private dinners, hotel lobbies and formal occasions. Piano music provides an elegant and sophisticated atmosphere that complements a wide range of event settings.
