5/5 from 717 reviews
Photo of Roger Lewin Piano Roger Lewin Piano "It was a very worthwhile booking. Roger, Phil and Sarah-Jane provided our Group with great music that afternoon. 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 Southend-on-Sea, England Mary W - National Trust - Volunteer Thank You Party Photo of The Dark Moon Ensemble The Dark Moon Ensemble "Just had a listen to you guys on Bandcamp, beautiful stuff!!" 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." Based in London, England 30th May 2026 Amy & Louis - Wedding Photo of Ruth Smith Ruth Smith "We asked Ruth to play at my husband's birthday party and she was absolutely fabulous! Everyone loved her and her presence really made the day. Incredibly professional, willing and talented, highly recommend." Based in London, England Samantha M Photo of Brian Clemens Brian Clemens "From start to finish Brian was nothing short of epic! We wanted a pianist for our wedding ceremony and from the moment we booked Brian he was very communicative, super friendly, listened to all of our slightly strange requests and made them all happen, down to the last detail. On the day, Brian arrived well in advance of the start this, and was playing his gorgeous music to the guests (and putting me at easy) well before the start of the ceremony. Yes his music is SUPERB, but for me, what made Brian most incredible, was he ability to read the room. We had a song mid-ceremony (which we thought could potentially be badly sang by guests) but not on Brian’s watch… he lead us all in, adding fun bits into the song, picking up the pace when needed and giving us all the confidence to “belt it out”. Just a true professional with a personal touch. Brilliant Brian!" Based in London, England Adam S.

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring jazz pianists is £350, 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.

The jazz pianists for hire 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard.

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.
