Highly recommended" Based in Gillingham, England 1st December 2025 Will Buckle - MS SOCIETY LUNCH Photo of Decatur Street Jazz Decatur Street Jazz "Rosie was an absolute star. She was technically brilliant (beautiful voice) and when she was let down by the sound system completed her set unaccompanied. Her professionalism and un-flappability in the face of difficulty was very impressive. Would strongly recommend."

Based in Chelmsford, England The Black Heart Orchestra - Single Release Feb 2022 Photo of Edward Katherine Piano Edward Katherine Piano "From the moment of booking there was excellent communication and we felt in very safe hands. Ed was such a brilliant addition to the day playing on both a grand piano and keyboard for our wedding breakfast and cocktail hour. He was really flexible when our timings changed and was a lovely presence on the day. Our guests remarked how brilliant his playing was and how fantastic it was to have a live pianist on the day. We would highly recommend Ed Katherine."

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring jazz pianists is £340, with prices from £120 to £950+. Pricing depends on the pianist's experience, set length and whether a suitable instrument is available at the venue. Jazz pianists provide sophisticated, versatile background music suited to a wide range of events from cocktail receptions to private dinners.

Two to three hours is typical, played as sets of around 45 minutes with short breaks between them. Background playing across a dinner service often runs longer and is quoted by the hour. Arranging recorded music for the breaks stops the room falling silent.

Some jazz pianists bring their own digital piano or keyboard, while others may prefer to use an acoustic piano if one is available at the venue. A high-quality digital piano can produce an excellent jazz sound and is easily transported. It is worth discussing instrument arrangements with the pianist.

Events that commonly feature jazz pianists include cocktail receptions, corporate events, hotel lobbies, restaurant dining, wedding receptions and private parties. Jazz piano provides an elegant, sophisticated backdrop that enhances the atmosphere without overpowering the occasion.

Many jazz pianists offer flexible formats including solo piano, duo with a vocalist or bass player, and trio or quartet settings. A larger group provides a fuller sound, while a solo pianist suits intimate venues and budgets. To get the best results, discuss options when making an enquiry.

Ceremony, drinks reception and dinner are all common bookings, and one player can cover the whole day where a suitable instrument is in place. Processional and recessional pieces are agreed in advance, and many players will arrange a requested song in a jazz style. Where the ceremony and the reception are in different rooms, allow time to move and set up between them.

Most will take a short list of requests and arrange them in a jazz style, given reasonable notice before the date. Standards and well-known popular songs are straightforward, while an obscure piece may need extra rehearsal time or a fee. Sending the list at the booking stage rather than on the day gives the best result.

The jazz pianists perform a range of jazz styles including swing, bebop, smooth jazz, boogie-woogie, blues piano and jazz interpretations of popular songs. Many jazz pianists are also accomplished classical and pop players, offering a versatile repertoire.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
