Photo of Elegant Piano: Cocktail, Jazz & Pop Elegant Piano: Cocktail, Jazz & Pop "A wonderful experience with Jay. He was so responsive when we first contacted him about our event in Stonington CT (a birthday party for my mother with approx. 40 guests at the La Grua Center), and his repertoire spanned all of the types of music were were looking for (jazz, classical, some show tunes). His playing was just so lovely at the event. A pleasure to meet him and have him join this event. My mother was so thrilled and it made her birthday very special. Many thanks to Jay. Highest recommendation."

I recommend to others. Thank you Raquel for your Wedding performance." Based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada (339 miles from Philadelphia) Mark N. - Wedding Photo of Sam Keily Sam Keily "Blown away! Sam was able to recreate my dream from two tik toks I sent him. He played Star Wars for all of our groomsmen and Abba for all of our bridal party!! Everyone complimented the music and Sam seriously listened to all of our requests and was amazing. I would absolutely book him again!" Based in Fort Wayne, Indiana (529 miles from Philadelphia) 1st March 2026 Chloe T. - Private Wedding Photo of Nate and Chris Jazz Nate and Chris Jazz "A Masterclass in Professional Saxophone & Performance! If you are looking for top-tier musical professionalism, this is an absolute must-hire. As a retired Army musician with over 30 years of experience, Chris brings a level of discipline, talent, and "class" that is rare to find. His expertise shines through in every note, whether performing traditional jazz, swing, or beautiful holiday classics. Chris’s soulful saxophone work—clearly influenced by greats like John Coltrane—is the highlight of the performance. He is incredibly versatile, having performed at everything from intimate weddings and private parties to military ceremonies and international concerts across the US and South America. What makes this act stand out is the sheer reliability and adaptability. He arrives early, provides professional sound and lighting systems, and is happy to tailor the repertoire to include specific client requests. Whether you need sophisticated background music for a corporate gala or a lively performance for a celebration, Chris delivers a flawless, high-quality show every time. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a truly polished, world-class musician!" Based in Kansas City, Missouri (1,034 miles from Philadelphia) 12th March 2026 Tim Romane - Private Party Photo of Gentle Piano Music Gentle Piano Music "A true professional and impressively talented! She was just a lovely addition to our formal cocktail party! A true talented professional! She played beautiful traditional Christmas music for our holiday cocktail party! She was great at communicating with us, even prior to us booking her. She wanted to know exactly what our wants and desires were, and she made sure she satisfied our wishes. A very pleasant and classy touch to our evening was had. We would highly recommend everyone to hire her to add that elegant and sophisticated touch of class to your event." Based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada (1,268 miles from Philadelphia) 5th March 2026 Charlene Ramkissoon - Cocktail Party Photo of Matthew Zelenin Music Matthew Zelenin Music "Matthew was great! He was extremely talented and professional. We requested multiple songs for him to learn and he played them all perfectly! He was extremely accommodating. He brought all his equipment, arrived early for set up, and executed everything perfectly. We will definitely use him again for future events and recommend him to friends!"

Frequently asked questions

Pricing for classical pianists ranges from $95 to $650+, with an average of $340. 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.

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.

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.
